Mercedes is expected to replace its C-Class and E-Class convertibles with the new CLE-Class, spotted here in AMG guise.
Sedan sales may be on the decline but the situation is even worse when it comes to convertibles. As a result most automakers have either scaled back the number of convertibles they offer or dropped the body style altogether.
Mercedes-Benz has had one of the most diverse lineups of convertibles in recent years but it too is in the process of streamlining its open-top offerings. We've already seen the SLK-Class, S-Class Cabriolet and AMG GT Roadster all dropped, with aNext we're expecting convertible versions of the C-Class and E-Class to be phased out and replaced with a single model dubbed the CLE-Class Cabriolet.
It isn't clear what's happening in the powertrain department but a good bet is the same setup introduced in the. The setup consists of a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-4 that generates 381 hp on its own, plus a mild-hybrid system that's able to deliver a temporary 14-hp boost. The engine also features an electrified turbocharger similar to what's used in Formula One.
As for the roof, Mercedes looks to be going with a soft-top design, just like on the new SL. However, the roof is heavily camouflaged on the prototype so we can't see the true shape.
