Renault Clio 2008 Overview
The second-generation Clio hatchback was launched as a 1999 model, and was heavily facelifted for 2002, coinciding with the release of the Turkish-built sedan version. The all-new Mark-3 Clio was already out in European markets by 2006, but the Middle East soldiered with the older Mark-2 model. Therefore in 2006, the model received a second unnoticeable facelift, and the hatchback was renamed the Clio Campus, while the sedan became the Clio Classic. The Clio is the smallest car in Renault's range, and offers buyers a number of trim options and petrol engines, in either hatchback or sedan form. The basic 1.4-litre engine powers the standard five-door hatchback and four-door sedan, with a choice of manual or automatic transmissions. The hot 2.0-litre engine powers the rare three-door Clio 182 model, with a stock manual transmission. The unique combination of sizeable engines, unique styling, competitive pricing, safety features and equipment levels make other cars in this category look bad. The Clio is available with a host of trim levels, with names like Authentique, Expression, Privilege, Initiale, Dynamique and, for the hot 182 model, Renaultsport. Standard features include electric power steering, some sort of stereo, available power features and more. Class-leading levels of equipment include ABS with brake assist, dual front airbags, remote control central locking, power windows.
