	Renault Clio at AllExperts
		The Clio has seen substantial critical and commercial success, being consistently one of Europe's top-selling cars since its launch, and it is largely credited with restoring Renault's reputation and stature after a difficult second half of the 1980s.
		The top-of-the-range Clio however was the exotic mid-engined, rear-wheel drive Clio V6 Renault Sport, which placed a 187 kW (254 hp) 3.0 L V6 engine sourced from the Renault Laguna behind the front seats, with a top speed of 245 km/h (152 mph).
		Clio Renault Sport is equipped with a new naturally aspirated 16-valve 2 liter engine based on the earlier version used in the second generation Clio Renault Sport and a 6-speed gearbox.

	Renault Clio Renaultsport - RSportsCars.com
		The new Renault Clio Renaultsport stands out as a worthy successor to Clio Renaultsport 182 2.0 16V and features a groundbreaking first in its segment in the form of a rear air diffuser which uses technology derived directly from Formula 1.
		The Clio Renaultsport is powered by the F4R RS normally-aspirated 2.0 16V engine which delivers 197 bhp at 7,250 rpm and maximum torque of 159 lb-ft at 5,550 rpm.
		The new Clio Renaultsport comes with an evolution of the TL4 six-speed gearbox, the first Alliance-developed manual transmission which is capable of handling up to 177 lb-ft. This precision, close-ratio gearbox favors acceleration from all intermediate engine speeds.

	Renault Clio Sport and Trophy V6 24v
		Wider than the standard car, the Clio Renault Sport V6 24V is distinguished by its front and rear appearance and by its different body sides.
		The particular layout of the Clio Renault Sport V6 24V, with its engine in the mid-rear position, required a complete reworking of the Clio II chassis.
		Like the Clio II, the Clio Renault Sport V6 24V offers a high level of safety with a new generation of occupant retention systems: twin programmed-restraint airbags with controlled deflation, safety belts with load limiters and pretensioners, and close-contact head restraints.

	Renault Clio Page
		Clio III was developed in just 28 months, a record for Renault.
		Renault Sport widened its tracks by 48mm up front and 50mm at the rear, then fitted stiffer springs, revalved dampers and thicker anti-roll bars to its suspensions, 215/45 tires and large diameter 4-pot Brembo brakes.
		However, to reduce torque steer, Renault adopted a similar approach to the Megane RS - a double-axis front suspension geometry which decouples the steering from the engine induced forces.

	Renault Clio II
		Renault claims 50% change of structural and bodywork components, plus a new 1.2-litre 16V and two 1.5-litre turbo diesel, application of electric power steering, electronic throttle to cut emission, improved windscreen sealing to reduce NVH, completely reworked interior and addition of safety equipment.
		Renault Sport applied some usual racing techniques such as a camshaft with faster timing and higher lift and a bigger intake plenum with shorter manifolds to smoothen breathing.
		On the road, the new Clio V6 not only feels much faster and stronger, its performance is also much more delicious to exploit, because the gearshift is slick and short, because the modified intake and exhaust generates a sound so beautiful, so much like a Porsche flat-six, especially it comes from right behind your head.

	Renault Clio III
		The new Renault Clio, revealed today, is the third generation of car to bear that name since the original was launched in 1991 to replace the long-lived Renault 5.
		With very large light units, particularly at the front, and a tail which refers to the current Clio with perhaps a hint of Megane, the new car looks more grown-up, and its specification is certainly impressive for the market sector.
		Renault's record in the Euro NCAP crash tests is an enviable one, and there can be no doubt that it will be aiming for another five-star result here.
