Precision transmission technology is a typical feature of the CL Coupé. The CL 500 features 7G-TRONIC automatic transmission as standard. Seven speeds permit quicker shifting and added driving pleasure and comfort. The tried-and-tested 5-speed automatic transmission is specially designed for the CL 600 powerhouse.

To accommodate the enormous power of the V12 Biturbo engine, the CL 600 is equipped as standard with 5-speed automatic transmission with Touchshift. This transmission unit ensures particularly smooth gear-shifting and adapts to your individual driving style.

By simply nudging the selector lever on the steering column, you can also shift up and down manually.

The 7G-TRONIC automatic transmission (available for the CL 500 and the CL 63 AMG only) contributes to an optimum transmission ratio. The resulting swift response characteristics and optimum acceleration enhance both driving pleasure and comfort. You will barely feel the gearshifts. One of the benefits of the seven ratio steps is a reduction in the average engine speed, which in turn helps mark down fuel consumption and noise emissions.
