Mercedes-AMG CLE 646 Spezialanfertigung: A Purist High-Performance Coupé for Maximum Driving Dynamics

The Mercedes-AMG CLE 646 Spezialanfertigung is a high-performance coupé that embodies the essence of AMG. With a focus on driving dynamics, this limited-edition model boasts a 646 PS (475 kW) 4.0-liter V8 biturbo engine, rear-wheel drive, and a significantly reduced weight of around 170 kilograms. The CLE 646 Spezialanfertigung features an independent wide-body chassis, a new suspension system, and extensively developed aerodynamics. The car’s design is characterized by a broad stance, numerous carbon components, and a deliberately developed aerodynamic concept. The AMG 4.0-liter V8 biturbo engine produces 646 PS (475 kW) and 850 Nm of torque, with a flat-plane crankshaft that reduces rotating masses and improves responsiveness. The engine is paired with a 9-speed AMG SPEEDSHIFT TCT transmission and an electronically controlled rear axle differential. The CLE 646 Spezialanfertigung is a statement of performance and character, with a unique sound and design that sets it apart from other vehicles. As a limited-edition model, it is hand-built at the AMG headquarters in Affalterbach, Germany. The car’s development was driven by a simple question: how to further develop the CLE towards maximum driving dynamics. The result is a vehicle that is uncompromising in its pursuit of performance and driving pleasure.
