Upgraded interior features new materials

The first delivery is expected in October, with prices to be confirmed

This is the first picture of the new Renault Clio, which will go on sale in October this year.

Appeared 25 years after the first Clio was launched, and features a new look at both ends. Grille that houses the Renault diamond has been redesigned, while the bottom is now wider. At the same time, there is a new skirt in the back, which is designed to make the car look more robust.

In addition, buyers have a choice of four new colors - Mars Red, Arctic White and Titanium Grey Iron Blue - new options and a wider wheel personalization options.

Inside, the car features a new selection of trims and upholsteries, many of which have previously been reserved for more expensive models Renault

The cabin will feature one of three different multimedia systems, depending on the trim level: Media Nav Evolution, Renault R-Link Evolution and the new, smart R&GO system, which comes on the basic models. A Bose stereo will be among the options, while buyers can also specify a reverse parking camera and, on top-end versions, the Handsfree Parking system that will park the car automatically. 

Full details of the new Clio line-up will be announced in due course, but Renault has already confirmed that a new 1.5 dCi 110 diesel engine mated to a six-speed manual gearbox will added to the range, and a six-speed manual transmission will be available with the TCe 120 petrol engine for the first time. 

The company will confirm the price and specification of the new car – which will rival the likes of the Ford Fiesta, Vauxhall Corsa and Volkswagen Polo – later in the summer, with order books opening in October and first deliveries expected later that month.
