- Limited Edition features extensive standard equipment and unique design details
- Striking AMG exterior graphics and contrasting visual elements throughout
Mercedes-AMG presents the new limited AMG CLE MANUFAKTUR Edition. Based on the 2026 AMG CLE 53 Coupe and Cabriolet, this special model arrives at U.S. dealerships later this year and will be available to U.S. customers in limited numbers. The exclusive edition showcases distinctive design elements, stunning finishes and an expansive suite of standard equipment.
At the heart of the Mercedes-AMG CLE 53 is an AMG-enhanced 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine equipped with an exhaust gas turbocharger and electric auxiliary compressor. The advanced powertrain produces 443 hp and 413 lb-ft of torque, as well as 443 lb-ft in overboost for up to 10 seconds. Power is transferred via an AMG SPEEDSHIFT® TCT 9G transmission and AMG Performance 4MATIC+ fully variable all-wheel drive, creating a highly dynamic driving experience that matches the expressive design of the AMG CLE.
The AMG CLE MANUFAKTUR Edition features specially curated exteriors for both the Coupe and Cabriolet that underscore the vehicles’ exclusivity as well as sporty and luxury character. The Coupe is finished in MANUFAKTUR Graphite Grey Magno paint and adorned with yellow AMG graphics. 20-inch AMG Forged Cross-Spoke wheels in black with yellow rim flanges, unique to this special edition, provide further contrast. The Cabriolet exemplifies top-down luxury with AMG-exclusive MANUFAKTUR Starling Blue Magno paint, highlighted by captivating black and blue AMG graphics. This is complimented by 20-inch AMG Multi-Spoke Y-Design wheels with black accents.
Sporty interior with AMG Performance seats
Distinctive design elements extend to the interior of the AMG CLE MANUFAKTUR Edition. The AMG Performance Seat Package Advanced, fitted standard, features black AMG Nappa leather upholstery with yellow contrast stitching on the Coupe, and new exclusive AMG Nappa leather in white with black accents on the Cabriolet. Trim elements in AMG carbon fiber further elevate the interior. The AMG door sill trims are illuminated in yellow on Coupe and white on the Cabriolet. Color accents are also highlighted on the AMG floor mats for this special model with yellow (Coupe) or white (Cabriolet) MANUFAKTUR Edition branding and stitching.
Additional packages & options, included standard, make this special model even more desirable:
