Meet the remarkable 2026 Mercedes-Benz CLE Cabriolet: a refined four-seat convertible that seamlessly unites spirited performance with everyday comfort. It possesses a personality all its own, from its premium acoustic soft top to available leather seating with an innovative reflective coating engineered to keep occupants cool even on the most sweltering days.
The 2026 Mercedes-Benz CLE Cabriolet marries sporty aesthetics with meticulous engineering, presenting a versatile array of looks and the technology to ensure that open-top motoring is every bit as pleasant as driving with the top in place.
The CLE Cabriolet's soft top is purpose-built to minimize cabin noise, sustain aerodynamic performance in line with the coupe model, and fold neatly away in under 20 seconds — all without encroaching on trunk space. This intelligent soft top comes in your choice of black, grey, or an eye-catching red.
10 exterior colors. 3 soft top colors. 7 wheel options. The 2026 CLE Cabriolet empowers you to build a vehicle as original and individual as you are.
The AIRCAP® electric wind deflector system combines a windshield-mounted deflector that channels airflow above passengers' heads with an automatic deflector behind the rear headrests, together generating a sheltered zone of calm air throughout the entire interior cabin.
Put the top down and invite the world to appreciate the interior of your 2026 Mercedes-Benz CLE Cabriolet — complete with a driver-oriented central display, innovative year-round open-air comfort systems, and a curated range of leather finishes to express your unique aesthetic.
No more awkward reaching or twisting — the CLE Cabriolet's seatbelt presenter smoothly extends the belt toward you the moment you sit down, making every entry effortless.
Standard on every 2026 CLE Cabriolet, AIRSCARF® is a system built into the front headrests that delivers customizable flows of heated air directly to occupants' necks, so you stay warm on cooler days even with the soft top lowered. Open-air comfort is available in every season, reinforced by standard heated seats and dual-zone climate control.
Make your 2026 CLE Cabriolet truly your own with more than 10 upholstery options, including 2 premium Nappa Leather selections. Choose from MB Tex, Leather, and Nappa Leather in Black, Tonka Brown, Macchiato Beige, or Power Red.
The 2026 Mercedes-Benz CLE Cabriolet honors an enduring heritage of Mercedes-Benz open-top driving while steering it purposefully into the contemporary era with sophisticated powertrains and cutting-edge mild-hybrid technology.
Built to detect what your eyes might miss, the CLE Cabriolet offers an available surround view camera for a seamless 360° view and a subtly concealed rearview camera that activates automatically and precisely when you need it most.
Configured to deliver a tranquil experience across all road surfaces, the 2026 CLE Cabriolet is fitted with a suspension tuned expressly for comfort and ride quality rather than sporty aggression, providing a noticeably smoother, more relaxed driving character.
An advanced electromechanical steering system is at the heart of the CLE Cabriolet's dynamic feel. It translates to light, intuitive steering in tight spaces and city streets, and transitions to firmer, more confident feedback at motorway speeds.
