Kind of useless as it's slower than other comparable models, not sure who they are gonna blink their lights at. Hopefully they know how to keep right to let people with faster cars pass.
I just started the process of ordering the cabrio in the USA. I’m not 100 percent it’s ready to order yet. The salesman is going to talk to the managers. That tech!
As a current e-coupe owner, I find this interior absolutely unacceptable quality (and same for the interior of the 206 c-class). Nearly every surface is cheap plastic, and everything that looks like metal or wood is fake and plastic. I think, even for the C-class price/tier, this interior should have more soft-touch on the doors, dashboard, and center console. The finish should include at least some real metal and wood materials. Otherwise, why not just get a Honda? This is even less acceptable because the CLE is expressly marketed as an E-class replacement too. Not, unsurprisingly, I think the exterior design is spectacular, and I like what they did to combine the "sportiness of the C-coupe with the extra space of the E-coupe." Separate from the interior quality is the interior design. While the interior quality is objectively bad for the price and position of the car, the interior design is also not great in my opinion. I generally think the shared elements of all new mercedes models are not good - like (1) the piano black center console and surrounds for the seat controls; (2) capacitive touch & lack of nice, tactile buttons; (3) generally less architecture than the design language of last generation (e.g., S-Coupe & GT63). I'm generally of the opinion that the last-gen designs were better, but I do think the W214 E-class WITHOUT the superscreen is the best of the bunch. Apparently, it's decent quality inside too. With no viable successor to the E or S class coupes for people that care more about the luxury than the approval of others, I think this is a dark period for Mercedes. I will just have to buy an old car or an 8 Series to upgrade when it comes time. I'm sure as hell never buying this trash...
@@BulliezInc thank you! No reviewers seem to say this but anyone thats been in an E class and a 206 C class should know. What specification did you get?
100% agree. According to the clearly biased reviews everything looks great, but in practice quality has been going constantly down on Mercedes. Even the W205 which had more better soft materials, was not great in terms of build quality (lots of rattle and squeaks, unacceptable for a car that is supposed to be Premium), and now on top of that they also start to lower the quality of the materials you see and touch. Not to mention that CLE is just a C coupè with E badge, but price of E of course. What's next? Are they going to propose a Dacia with Mercedes logo, adding few lights here and there?
@@BobsUp83Seriously! I agree with everything you just said. like somehow the squeaks and rattles didn't improve. I think they (1) need to include an "exclusive leather" option like in the S-class that can add more premium materials to the CLE - I would pay for that considering how good it looks on the outside [e.g., dynamica headliner, soft-touch doors, dashboard, and center console]; (2) get rid of the piano black on the center console and seat control panel on the doors [across every mercedes model!!!]' (3) get rid of the capacitive touch under the screen, on the steering wheel, and on the seat controls [also across every model!!]; and (4) IDGAF if they want to put plastic trim in the C-class, but it should have real wood, carbon, aluminum in this higher-tier car. In fact, most of this would be a non-issue if they just ripped the new E class's interior for this.
@@tool8337 I pretty much got a fully loaded vehicles . I’m only missing the heated armrest/ center console package , air suspension and air balance package . It’s black / black interior with 19 in AMG Wheels .
I am crying... I cant afford this car in m country. too expensive due to the huge taxes. But it is a great car. I wish I will buy one day. But this color is very ordinary. I would prefer more attractive color.
Looks great & seriously weighing it up as a replacement for my current daily drive👍🏻 I’d have to see Alpine Grey “in the flesh” as it just looks white on camera
Nice car. But a few things would be disturbing: - Important functions unfortunately via touchscreen operation. Air conditioning and the similar functions would be much more convenient with real buttons and controls. - The digital displays and screens are unfortunately not integrated and therefore look as if some cheap tablets were simply mounted on them later. As if they weren't part of the car. - Too many surfaces that are prone to dust and look like cheap plastic.
If we’re being honest of the past C-class the screens looked out of place as well. Only cars before the facelift that had “in place” screens were the S and E class models
Absolutely beautiful design. Love this car so much. One thing I don’t like about a lot of the new Mercedes models is the new ambient lighting combos. They are too pastel colored. The old system and ambient lighting had more bold colors and the combos were better in my opinion.
@@allmoneyin_8953 the e class coupe was nice but was kinda odd in the line up because it fell between two already perfect vehicles the c coupe and s coupe. The e coupe mainly had the front end of the c class with just a different rear, it may have provided more comfort but, if considering that car in most cases your were better off just going for the s class. Plus the e class coupe didn't come as a true AMG.
@@mikmillerrealtori disagree. The C Class is far from perfect. I’ve always look at those as a first car, college student or even a recent graduate. IMO it’s always looked cheap to me especially with that tablet screen tacked on in the interior from previous generations Which doesn’t really represent the brand I love. On my 5th E Class and I wouldn’t touch the C class. I’d rather drive a Honda Accord than any below the E. But that’s me 🤷🏽♂️
The design is fantastic. But...I intensly dislike this "star-pattern" grill. That's kind of immature. And the "lightshow" of the digital lights in front and rear is childish too. This is this kind of "bling-bling"-style that doesn't fit to this elegant car.
@@ElectronicHouseFlashw221 did it subtly, w222 was more but still nice, now the inside looks like a gaming pc that would hurt your eyes to drive at night
dw lil bro thats kinda the point for the moment to help this thing sell but then thats when they will do the new s class wt newer stuff and then the cycle continues, where u been bruh? Are u 16 or smth
Please review the CLE convertible. Everyone on TH-cam is reviewing the Coupe, but there's only a couple videos on the Cabriolet. I think it would get a lot of views from other people like myself who are interested in purchasing the convertible. Thanks for another great upload by the way!
I test drove one last week and to be honest I wasn't impressed , less leg and head room in the rear, they introduced a B pillar which in my opinion destroyed the look of the car .The rear windows are fixed and can't be opened, the central screen is terrible and looks like an afterthought they decided to throw in , the air vents look out of place as well, The seats are not so comfortable and need more bolster on the sides. Overall I was very disappointed with the car especially the interior, I'm currently driving the E class coupe premium plus, and in my opinion it's a far superior car particularly on the inside. I don't think the CLE premium + it's worth 92 thousand euros.
My first car was a 16 plate c class white coupe and I loved it.. c220d. This was a few years ago. This looks great, but I just can’t get behind the rear lights
While i love ambient lighting, this is something you would get if you tell a kid to build a PC and all he picks out are RGB components. I feel like it needs to be toned down a notch.
12:03 perfect improvement! Mercedes knows their audience for this type of car.
Don't forget the 25m trailing feature while nobody else is around
That's my favorite feature of having LED lights, everyone instantly gets out of your way in the night when you blink few times
seems like their audience is Turkish guys
@@Sebastian-ni4lein germany definite

The ambient lighting is insane
little bit classless
Yea the interior lighting is a bit tacky, looks like the decided to add it everywhere
@@MatteoFitness who cares about class? If you like something then go for it

best coupe currently at the market. love it
Going to be like the price of a g87 and I’d rather have that for sure
To each his own. I think stylistically the CLE blows the g87 out of the water. Everyone has different taste though. @@jakefox3677
@@jakefox3677the performance and driving feel will probably be much better but its so ugly :(
U must be kiddin
check CLS or AMG GT
Wow at that interior lighting. Looks like a South Beach nightclub in there.
Looool
its doing its job distracting you from the poor design and quality
Germans are getting way tackier and tasteless than the Chinese. My times have changed. Gaudy as hell!
too much light not good for the eyes in the night
Childish disco
Can’t go wrong with Mercedes Benz 😍
Where’s your Honda 2002
what a beautiful car.. its my dream car now
Looks great & seriously weighing it up as a replacement for my current daily drive👍🏻
I’d have to see Alpine Grey “in the flesh” as it just looks white on camera
Probably looks sweet. The mojave grey also looks like it would be really nice in the sunset.
I love cars that have safety features
Mercedes nailed that GTA strip club lightning color.
😂😂😂
Love the design looks sporty and classy at the same time
E class for sure 😀
Mercedes always make beautiful coupés, looks great inside and out.
Imagine the sound in real life😢❤❤
No one does it like Mercedes.
Benz is the best answer to success!
love the night time driving experience thanks
Perfect review on the car!
Classe E450 coupé is better.
The CLE is more a C coupé with the lenght of a E.
I have E450. Seems wider than this
Nice car. But a few things would be disturbing:
- Important functions unfortunately via touchscreen operation. Air conditioning and the similar functions would be much more convenient with real buttons and controls.
- The digital displays and screens are unfortunately not integrated and therefore look as if some cheap tablets were simply mounted on them later. As if they weren't part of the car.
- Too many surfaces that are prone to dust and look like cheap plastic.
Add the door handles to that, a ticking time bomb... :( And those dash board screens just look cheap and are just plain unnecessary.
just talk to the car instead much easier and works well
If we’re being honest of the past C-class the screens looked out of place as well. Only cars before the facelift that had “in place” screens were the S and E class models

As a c coupe owner I approve this upgrade 🔥

"Hey Mercedes".....are you listening the whole time?

If you have E class coupé the new CLE is clearly a downgrade since it is a C coupé at the price of the E...marketing move...
Jesus H Christ... 92k is bonkers
No question that b-pillar has ruined this car and they should be ashamed to try to associate it with the Outgoing E class coupe
That looks FANTASTIC !!! 😍
Are u blind.
Mercedes amazing 👍🏻
i have a cle but the light in the beginning at the wall is it a setting i have to turn on?
I came here to player hate. But after seeing this thing I can’t. What a nice car.
Love the craftsmanship on this car. I just discovered your channel and subscribed.
I quite like this car and waiting for it to arrive in australia 🇦🇺
The 53 in this is next level
Was thinking the same, no one realizes this isn’t the amg version
guys im fall in love
The prettiest car to date. No a single fault with it. Absolute perfection. Well done Mercedes ❤
Really? Personally I prefer all MB designs from their more masculine design era. I.e. the second generation of the CLS and before.
It's good..I love that one.
Do the ´hologram lights come witth the non amg version aswell=?
where do you get stereo bg sound
MB have good interiors but why the floating ipad drivers display, you need to have a proper cockpit display for a car like this.
Love the design but mainly the interior
Exterior sucks

Is it fast?
I do believe it replaces the S and the E not the C and E. The S was too big and the E not much of a barge enough so they sort of found a middle ground
Nice car
Are you a dealer?
Your voice tone is so good and professional.
You forgot the most important info : price.
The real paid price, with all the options minus the dealer rebate.
Is this one going to drop 60% in price in the first year just like the previous model?
I dont like the single line back light .. its so bmw like. The 3d light where beautiful . Is this the metalic colour or the standard white?
not an amg? why title the video as such?
