Mercedes-Benz is in the process of simplifying its range of two-door vehicles. The SLC, S-Class Coupe, S-Class Convertible, and the AMG GT Roadster are all history now, but there’s a brand new model under development that will replace the coupe and cabriolet versions of the C-Class and E-Class. That new product is believed to be called the CLE-Class and it will eventually receive a range-topping AMG version.
That last statement isn’t just an assumption – a new video shows an AMG CLE 63 prototype lapping the Nurburgring with its fully camouflaged body. This is the hardtop version of the model and a convertible is also part of the plan. This isn’t the first case in which we see the fast coupe on the legendary track and the car looks very composed around the corners.
