@@DeadlyDizzle-yn1vz True, to some degree. It's a somewhat acceptable compromise if you do want AWD, but the biggest issue is that when you put it in RWD mode, you still have the weight and resistance of the extra drivetrain components even if they're disengaged. Most importantly on the front axle. This will have quite a noticeable impact on vehicle dynamics. Pure, permanent RWD vehicles will have much better steering weight, respons and feel than a switchable AWD/RWD system. Still much better than permanent AWD though, of course, it's just (generally) not nearly equal to a pure RWD system

I think the plastic cover between boot floor and seat backs is good, usually that area is hard to vacuum out and becomes a magnet for all types of rubbish, also stops things catching on the backs of the seats as badly when you put things in boot with seats down , but please give us at least a mini spare under the floor...... ( full size would be better)

Would like to see you reviewing classics.

I’m stuck with the e450 coupe. The cle looks gorgeous from the exterior BUT i cannot approve of that c coupe interior. I also cannot approve of the b pillar. Not at these prices. Only thing im missing out on at this point is the massage seats. I’ll wait until Mercedes gets their head back on their shoulders and drop the b pillar, switch to e class interior, and v8 engine in their coupes again.

Why do vehicle manufacturers keep putting display screens into cars that look like an afterthought ? Surely we all know they are super slim screens by now, so why not make dashboards that wrap round the screens ??? Just an observation.. AND... Give us back our buttons so we stop taking our eyes off the road to change the radio or temperature etc.

this man the most alpha long car reviewer man

Why don’t the actual exhausts form part of the the nice finished exterior exhaust outlet ?

The NEW CLE amg 53 coupe or E53 amg coupe ?? This has a more aggressive exterior but not sure about interior 😢

Interesting that the interior is definitely from a C-class, but they put a six-cylinder in it. A clever solution to simplifying their coupe lineup, but for its price it could be insulting. After all, you could probably get a "real" E-class AMG for about same price in 2025. I'm also disappointed with the standard equipment. €60 for a sliding sun visor? €900 for any color besides black? €2000 for any other seat colors? Even Porsche doesn't seem that stingy.

Not a fan of the dash/instruments. To me it seems that they just got lazy and planed two rectangle screens that serve the purpose of infotainment. And for me, that would be a no go to get me to buy. Thanks again for the great review! 👍👍

Love

This car does look good and sleek; however the instrument cluster(slap on tablet over the steering column) looks chincy like some afterthought. There should have been more of a cockpit intstrument cluster integrated with the dash. Other than this design omission the car looks spot on.

The car looks pretty as Leah!

I fear the successor will be a 3 cylinder FWD. Called 65 AMG.

My guy is so tall, the car looks tiny next to him 😂

Wenn das LIAMETER ausschlägt muss die Kraft im Auto ausreichend sein. 😊

Übrigens ist bei Alpin grau nicht weniger Farbe drauf. Bei Uni Lacken ist dieselbe Lackstärke inzwischen. Nur keine Metall Partikel in der Farbe und deswegen sind Kratzer leichter zu sehen als bei metallic Lack. Dieses Alpin grau ist seltsamer Weise viel teurer als metallic Lack. Warum weiß ich nicht.
