The A208 CLK Cabriolet emerged as Mercedes-Benz's answer to premium convertible demand in the late 1990s.
Development began in the early 1990s as a convertible variant of the successful C208 coupe platform.
Market introduction occurred in 1998 with elegant proportions and a power-operated soft top system.
Production concluded in 2003 as the next-generation A209 platform took over with revised styling and updated engines.
