A slightly inflated price relative to the equipment included in this car.

Comfortable, but feels a bit firmer (over small bumps) than the Q5. You can tell the car has some heft!! The electric power — 388 PS / 285 kW BEV — is incredible. The battery drops pretty quickly if you push the beast a little. The advertised 600 km range is generous on paper; expect more like 500, or even 450 in winter. The onboard technology is surprising and pushed to the extreme. After trying it, it's hard to go back to a non-electric model.

Mercedes CLE Convertible

The Mercedes CLE Convertible drops its roof with the kind of poise you'd expect from a luxury cruiser, wrapping elegant lines and a plush cabin into a composition that's equally at home on coastal roads or city boulevards. Behind the wheel it balances comfort and sporty intent, making it an appealing pick for buyers who want a refined open-top experience without shouting for attention — and yes, it even makes the commute feel like a weekend escape.
