EVEN BETTER: Bold new styling lifts the look of the Renault Clio even further.

Renault Clio range has stronger look THE facelifted Renault Clio not only has a stronger look but also added features and - best of all - its prices have been trimmed by $2000. The range now starts at $15,990 for the Clio Life manual, and stretches up to a still pretty reasonable $22,990 for the Clio GT-Line and the Clio Intens, the latter two come only with automatic transmission. Note that on-road charges have to be factored in, but you still get D ORW RI )UHQFK ³ DLU IRU D SUHWW\ PRGHVW outlay. As a sweetener to lift sales volume, the

By EWAN KENNEDY price-leading Clio Life has a driveaway price of $17,990 for the manual and $19,990 for the EDC auto. We road tested two Clios for a week each, a Zen and an Intens, both with a dual clutch automatic transmission. The Zen has Renault’s new ‘C-shaped’ lights, similar to that on the latest Renault Koleos and Megane hatch. These include LED headlights, front foglights with a chromed surround. There’s gloss black trim under the

lower rear bumper as well as on the side door protection moulds. It has 16inch alloy wheels. The luxurious Intens features chromed window trim. Interestingly the door sill insert, grille and bootlid inserts can be either Flame Red or Ivory. Inside, the dash, door panel and seat highlights can be ordered in Intense Red. (Note how the marketers mix their ‘Intens’ and ‘Intense’ descriptions in the one car. Why? It’s anybody’s guess…) The Intens has height adjustment on

both front seats, velvet and faux leather trim, climate control and rear privacy glass. It rides on 17-inch very stylish Optemic two-tone alloy wheels There’s a standard sound system on the Zen and an upmarket 3D Arkamys system on the Intens. Likewise the Intens has R-LINK navigation and multimedia system with voice control. The Clio Life has a three-cylinder 0.9-litre turbo-petrol engine with 66 kW of power and 135 Nm of torque at 2500.
