Mercedes-Benz Malaysia has raised the bar in the performance coupé segment with the debut of two striking new models: the all-new Mercedes-AMG CLE 53 4MATIC+ Coupé and the Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S 4MATIC+ Coupé Final Edition. Both embody AMG’s philosophy of power, precision, and emotion, blending cutting-edge engineering with unmistakable design flair.

Positioned as a fusion of C-Class agility and E-Class presence, the AMG CLE 53 4MATIC+ Coupé is a bold statement in performance luxury. Under its sculpted hood lies a 3.0-litre six-cylinder in-line engine producing 330 kW (449 hp) and 560 Nm of torque, with an overboost feature pushing torque to 600 Nm. A mild-hybrid system adds another layer of punch with an additional 17 kW (23 hp) and 205 Nm from the integrated starter generator.

Paired with the AMG SPEEDSHIFT TCT 9G transmission and fully variable AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive, the CLE 53 sprints from 0-100 km/h in just 4.2 seconds. Its electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h can be raised to 270 km/h with the AMG Driver’s Package.

Design-wise, it’s unmistakably AMG: a wide stance, flared fenders, 20-inch AMG Y-spoke wheels, and distinctive details such as the “Shark Nose” front end and AMG-specific grille. Options like the AMG Night Package, AMG Exterior Carbon-Fibre Package, and a panoramic glass roof further elevate its presence.

Inside, the coupé is a masterclass in dynamic luxury. The cabin features AMG Performance seats in ARTICO/MICROCUT, red seat belts, carbon-fibre trim, and a 12.3-inch driver display paired with an 11.9-inch central screen. Technology highlights include MBUX with AMG TRACK PACE, a Burmester® 3D surround sound system, and head-up display, all wrapped in an atmosphere of 64-colour ambient lighting.

Priced from RM722,888 (on-the-road without insurance, including 10% sales tax), the CLE 53 sets a new benchmark for performance coupés in Malaysia.

For those who prefer compact dynamism, the CLA 45 S Final Edition delivers AMG’s signature thrills in a sleeker package. Its 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine is among the world’s most powerful, pushing 310 kW (421 hp) and 500 Nm of torque, rocketing the coupé from 0-100 km/h in 4.1 seconds and on to a top speed of 270 km/h.

The Final Edition brings exclusive touches, including the AMG Night Package II with dark chrome accents, a bold MANUFAKTUR alpine grey or patagonia red paint finish, and a special AMG-branded fuel filler cap. Offered at RM538,888, it’s a collector’s choice that combines rarity with raw performance.

To celebrate the launches, Mercedes-Benz Malaysia is hosting the AMG World of Performance at 1 Utama Shopping Centre, LUXE Ground Floor, from 10–15 September 2025. Visitors can explore the full AMG line-up, from the A 45 S hatchback to the new CLE 53, and even take selected models for test drives.

Adding a lifestyle dimension, Mercedes-Benz Malaysia also rewarded five lucky customers who purchased new AMG vehicles between June and July with Malaysia Airlines Business Class tickets worth up to RM20,000 each.

Speaking at the launch, Nadia Trimmel, Vice President of Marketing & Sales at Mercedes-Benz Malaysia, summed it up: “With the all-new CLE 53 Coupé and CLA 45 S Final Edition, we are delivering performance, precision, and passion in their purest form—vehicles that not only drive the AMG spirit forward but also strengthen our legacy in Malaysia.”

With these latest introductions, Mercedes-Benz Malaysia reaffirms its dominance in the luxury performance segment, offering enthusiasts the best of AMG engineering—whether in grand touring elegance or compact high-performance style.
