Renault Clio Is the Best in Class Small Car


The new car from the house of Renault is the Renault Clio targeting the entry level auto segment and sales volumes. The car is definitely not cheap in terms of the quality. It is one of the best in class in terms of high tech features, instrument panel and five star safety precautions which makes it way ahead of its contemporaries. The Renault Clio will have a trimmed down approach with only the most important and basic features. However, the car will have a strong and reliable chassis which has been one of the biggest hallmarks of the car since its inception in 1991.Until now the car has garnered phenomenal results in sales and consumer satisfaction.



The Renault Clio Specifications shows that it is equipped with a 1.2L TCE , 1149 cc 16
valve I4 engine which is not as robust compared to its other B segment cars. However it
makes up with a nippy performance and delivers up to 101 bhp which is the best in class
in the same category. The 1.5L engine has excellent torque levels of up to 145 Nm. The
car also caters to the eco friendly audience with the option of ethanol-compatible
engine and an LPG version. The Renault Clio easily hits the top speed of around 185 kmph and clocks the 0-100kmph in 11.1 sec. The car is smooth even on humps and has no issues dealing with awkward terrains.



The outer look of the Renault Clio is also worth a mention. The quality of the exteriors gives the car a bold and decent appearance. The car measures a total of 3.81 mm in length with a neat turning radius of 10.3 m. The bumper on the front and the grille all seem to fit in place complementing the entire look of the car. The head lights with crystal masks are worth the mention. The Renault Clio Campus has windscreens that are flat blade in type. The back end of the car has been designed to keep the blind spot to the minimum along with larger mirrors at the front. The wheels are Alum aluminum alloys with 15 inch in measurement. The car is expected to come in 3 door and 5 door hatchback variants with almost the same size dimensions. Renault Clio is a chip off the old block in terms of the overall platform and yet offers a higher performance and comfort level.



The insides of the car are equipped with all the basic comforts and equally important
safety options. The music is taken car by the finger tip opera table music CD player.
The AC is manual and does keep the occupants cool in most humid conditions. The
dashboard is wide and clear with some useful functions. The car also has cruise control
and speed lock with an overall aesthetically designed interior to give a homely feeling.



The Renault Clio easily occupies even taller people and is one of the best in class in
terms of the cabin space. Renault Clio easily passes most safety measures. Even the starting basic versions are equipped with air-bags. The braking controls are really stubborn and give complete control during emergency halts. The front of the car is designed to absorb most of the impact and cause minimum damage in case of a mishap. The car has passed with five stars in Euro NCAP crash-test criteria.



Renault Clio Price is expected to be close to Rs. 6, 00,000. The price may vary as for the transportation and taxes for other states in India.
