Prices start at ₹1.10 crore (ex-showroom)
The Mercedes-AMG GLC 43 4MATIC Coupe features a dynamic design complemented by a top-tier Burmester 3D surround sound system, delivering 710W of power through 15 speakers. Inside, it’s equipped with the MBUX infotainment system featuring AMG-specific displays and functions. The high-resolution, full-colour Head-up Display offers various AMG display modes, while AMG Track Pace transforms the vehicle into a virtual race engineer. The system also includes a 12.3-inch driver display and an 11.9-inch portrait centre display, both featuring exclusive AMG graphics.
The car is powered by a 2.0-litre 4-cylinder engine, delivering 421bhp and 500 Nm of torque, making it the most powerful in its class. Drawing from Formula 1 technology, it features an electric exhaust gas turbocharger that significantly reduces turbo lag, Mercedes says. Performance is further enhanced by key features such as the AMG Ride Control suspension with adjustable damping, rear axle steering, and the AMG Dynamic Plus Package, which includes an AMG Performance steering wheel and dynamic engine mounts.
The Mercedes-Benz CLE 300 Cabriolet AMG Line, on the other hand, is driven by a 2.0-litre 4-cylinder engine paired with a 48V mild-hybrid system, delivering 258bhp with an over-boost function for some extra punch. This cabriolet is packed with luxurious features, including AIRCAR and AIRSCARF for added comfort, an acoustic fabric soft-top, and a Burmester 3D surround sound system. It also has advanced tech like Energizing Air Control with a PM 2.5 filter, ensuring a refined and comfortable driving experience.
The interior of the Mercedes-Benz CLE 300 Cabriolet AMG Line provides a unique wrap-around experience, enhanced by dynamic ambient lighting, chrome trim, and luxurious leather upholstery. Notably, it’s the first Mercedes-Benz Cabriolet to come standard with a separate head airbag for rear passengers. In line with the brand’s move towards online retail, the CLE 300 Cabriolet AMG Line will be launched exclusively online.
