Powertrain Options and Availability
A 3.2-liter V6 engine that produced 215 horsepower has been installed in CLK320 models, while the CLK500 held a 5.0-liter V8 that delivered 302 horsepower. A 5.4-liter V8 rated at 362 horsepower has gone into CLK55 AMG coupes and convertibles. All CLK models have a five-speed automatic transmission, except for the latest CLK500, which uses a seven-speed unit. For 2007, New V8 engines trigger model-name changes. The CLK350 returns with a 268-hp V6. The CLK550 has a 382-hp V8 and replaces the 302-hp CLK500. The high-performance CLK63 has a 475-hp V8 and replaces the 362-hp CLK55. The new-for-2008 CLK63 AMG Black Series used the 6.2-liter V8 tuned to 500 horsepower.
