Cruise through life in a Clio … compact in size, colossal in character

The Clio is classic Renault … and the new Clio 5-door hatchback features the same long-acclaimed qualities which secured Clio benchmark status in its class.

Design, comfort, features, handling and safety credentials, plus inherent qualities that place the Clio on a par with cars in higher segment car categories, ensure a versatile and exciting drive.

In addition to the Clio Avantage 1.6 16V manual and auto duo, the Renault Clio line-up now includes an entry-level S version which delivers sporty looks and performance at a competitive price level.

STYLE AND SPACE

New Renault Clio incorporates dynamic styling cues on the front-end while, inside, you’ll find that the emphasis is on finish quality and comfort. Thanks to its zingy, dynamic performance combined with its chic looks plus the added advantage of a roomy interior, expect a superb driving experience.

The Clio 3 has set new standards in terms of cabin space and this sensation of space is accentuated by generous headroom with rear passengers benefitting from spacious knee room.

Renault’s extremely rigorous build quality makes the new Clio one of the most reliable, safe cars in its segment on the road today.

Small car with big car attributes

The Clio 3 delivers a carefully honed balance between comfort and rigorous, safe roadholding. Its neutral handling makes it easy to drive, while its chassis and suspension guarantee a high standard of cornering performance. Whatever the type of road and even when exposed to side winds and under braking.

Already generously crammed with equipment fitted as standard, the Clio 3 also offers a wide range of accessories. Whatever your priority, be it practicality, safety or technology, the Clio range will meet your every need.

With service intervals every 15 000km, all of the models in the Clio 3 line-up come with Renault’s 5-year/150 000km warranty and 6-year anti-corrosion warranty.

The two 1.6 Avantage models and the Clio S model come with a 4-year/60 000km and 3-year/60 000km service option respectively.

Benchmark status in its class

As with all Renault models, performance goes hand-in-hand with safety. Quite simply, the Clio would not be a Renault without a multitude of safety features.

In fact, the Clio hatchback earned the maximum 5-star rating in the independent EURO NCAP crash test programme when it was first released way back in 1995.

Superior passive safety features together with the combination of Clio’s suspension and a range of driver aids (ABS with EBD and EBA), make the 21st century Clio one of the safest cars in its class.

With air-bags all round, the body includes a reinforced structure with programmed deformation zones designed to absorb greater energy in the event of a collision.
