Renault unleashes new Renaultsport Clio


Renault is to unleash a Clio Renaultsport 182 Trophy model this summer, and the model has been premiered at Monaco by the Formula 1 drivers Fernando Alonso and Giancarlo Fisichella.

It has been designed with the UK market specifically in mind as a reward for the Brits passion for Ranaultsport motoring: some 50 per cent of Renaultsport motors make their way to these shores.

It comes fitted with a two-litre engine that is capable of giving 182-bhp and a top speed of 140mph. It can go from nought to 62mph in just 6.9 seconds.

The biggest development of the new Clio Renaultsport 182 Trophy model is the suspensions, which is 10mm lower on shorter springs.
