Terrible shame about the demise of these brilliant small cars. This is all we ever want for our daily driving needs. Very economical, easy to drive and very much more affordable than even the small EVs.
It is a shame, not sure why SUVs have all of a sudden become so popular. I used to live in a place with small narrow roads and I can tell you most people who buy SUVs shouldn't own one.
“Hybrid makeover” um its the same hybrid currently found, just now it’s the only option you can buy in the UK… Not complaining though because it seems like an economical, good quality and stylish car.
I'm very curios to see how the cheaper versions will look. If they will keep the same design (hardly to believe) it may be one of the best looking small cars in the market
The Clio is one of the best small cars, if not the best. Anyone who has driven a lot of small cars knows that, for example, the Polo cannot provide that comfort.
ID did test drive a lot of cars in price segment of 16000 to 20000 and Yeah. Clio was one of the best how it was to drive it. It does not lose side wind and well as some other smaller cars bit the difference is not big and otherwise… yeah Clio was winning!
@@dominicr4740 Renault did it previously with RS Line. So this isn't anything new. What they should of done is given this Clio the full performance option as well ( like they did in the past with full RS models ). An Alpine RS or Turbo maybe and then the cosmetic only Alpine version for customers that just want the styling but not the running costs
@@dominicr4740 1-Gilles Vidal was the head designer of Peugeot up until 2020 2-the front grill, small headlights and vertical daytime running lights all scream Peugeot design 3-literally every car journalist (at least here in France) have noticed/mentioned it I mean it’s pretty obvious 4-it’s not a bad thing at all Peugeot great is amazing so I’m glad he’s bringing some of that Peugeot flare into Renault!
I rented the Tce90 in France. I t was extremely stormy weather, but inside the Clio I felt no gusts or anything of the storm. On curvy roads the steering was awesome. It was impressive, and is a candidate, if I replace my super Polo.
Oh blimey. The comments haven’t been turned off. Wonder why you did that with the ID Buzz video. Perhaps it was because it was produced by VW and not What Car? Not a very independent review. I have always liked the Clio. The Alpine is a legendary Mark. Usually associated with sporty cars. I am not sure why this particular Clio should be wearing that badge, as it is not a sporty version.
@@dominicr4740 I still think it’s a bit of a con. Not all consumers are gullible. Just giving it a label, Doesn’t make it an Alpine. I would imagine a lot of enthusiasts, would be very disappointed, if they bought this car, expecting it to perform, like an Alpine, tuned performance car. I think Renault has missed a big opportunity, in creating a brilliant, small, hot hatch, worthy of the Alpine name.
Making this kind of car extinct is a baffling mistake, it's one of the best and most eco segments - EU with it's draconic regulations should be ashamed.
The manufacturers may have planned to do away with small cars but considering the average car price is now around £38,000 they appear to be out of sink with real world economics. It’s noticeable the speed at which small EV’s are now being planned. Perhaps the economic climate and bare faced greed of some manufacturers, stand and take a bow Daimler group, is turning sour?
Very nice refresh and i'm pretty sure that LPG version will be best seller on many markets acros EU. Person who pays over 20000 euros or pounds for this size of car must be really brainwashed.
20000 became normal this "size" car isnt like a clio from 2010... this cars became bigger more comfortable and fully tech packed they feel like their bigger brothers more than before so i think 27000 will be more normal in future....
I was looking at the Esprit Alpine on Renaults website. Did you look at the extra packs eg. The protection pack/touring etc? The reason I’m asking is because I have mobility issues, and I was hoping that all your lane/parking/other assists came as standard (I’m late to driving so I’ve zero clue) any insight you could give would be great
Nice to see a small hybrid, but not sure whether this just ticks the box or whether it really adds to the cars economy? I would have preferred to see an external charger port and a bigger battery, but I guess the price reflects this. The battery appears to be the same 1.2Kw/h unit as before. I find the choice of 1.6 petrol engine rather odd considering the decent 1.0L turbo engines around these days. Finally, even with 143bhp, it just scrapes the 10s time for 0-60mph!
My Clio hybrid averages 56mpg to 60mpg. Diesel like figures and very clean as mostly in electric. Lot of complicated tech going on underneath the hood too
I suspect that 143bhp isn't realistic in normal driving, it's based on the electric motor being at full power which the battery capacity can't support for any period of time. Almost all hybrids have the same problem when it comes to 0-60 figures. the mid-range acceleration will be punchy though, a bit like a turbo on a diesel the electric motor can give a boost of power but will eventually tail off. the 1.6 engine is actually quite basic because of the electric motors and clever transmission the engine only needs to function at its peak efficiency rather than across an entire rev range . interestingly it doesn't require a clutch or reverse gear as the electric motor has enough power to back the car up and to match the engine speed and flywheel speed when changing ratios.
Shame there's no diesel, but that's exactly what the eurocrats want. I had a mk3 Clio DCI and never appreciated how refined it was until I replaced it with a Fiesta that feels as though it's running on flat tyres (and still makes me paranoid after two years) and is much much MUCH worse ergonomically. Back in the day I occasionally had a mk4 Clio as a dealer courtesy car and it felt dark / enclosed by comparison with the mk3. This impression and the non-availability of a CD player put me off considering a mk4 as a replacement (not to mention some dreadful customer service over a failed fuse box in my own car - nul points pour Renault...). For relative cheapness I might have considered a Dacia Sandero, but the latest version has the same lack of a CD player and the one time I drove a Sandero (a Stepway variant) I thought it felt cobbled-together, altogether very awkward. I'll accept that the latest version is probably up to mk4 Clio standards, but I didn't like the mk4 Clio. At some point I'll have to compromise and bend to the will of the tech herd, but I dread the day.
Nice looking car but I do not believe it will sell well. I sat in front on passenger place and it took me three minutes to secure the belt, that narrow was the place between me and the middle box. Boot is good only for local shopping. Clientele would be only ladies living in crowded towns and with some money to spend on looks. But on that market niche there are strong competitors like Mini or something else.
Nothing too wow going on here. Curious to know the real world mpg with all the hybridness. My guess is it'll net be barely better than a 1-1.2 turbo petrol.
I get 52mpg out of my 1litre prefacelift, forums are saying max of 60mpg with the hybrid and that’s with very careful driving. Not worth the extra £5k+, not to mention the weight saving/handling
the plan is for the two cars to coexist until ICE sales are banned. the 5 EV will more directly replace the Zoe. it's possibly that the Clio will return in some electric form depending on the positioning and success of the 5
interesting that Renault have managed to make a 143bhp small car struggle to reach 60 in 10 seconds, either it is absurdly heavy, absurdly high geared (112mph top speed suggests not) or car manufacturers are just making up figures for these latest petrol-electric hybrids based on hypothetical combined power rather than reality.
I don't see what's wrong with these small cars been hybrid. I have the Clio hybrid and at low speeds and in traffic, I'm mostly in electric. Until there's an alternative I honestly don't see why we can't keep making these, with Efuels in the pipeline too
Then mines lost 2 somewhere LOL...the Clio E-Tech is 4 speed with 2 electric motors, but don't take my word for it. It's on the website too :-) @@bikeman123
Great small efficient car as long as you do not plan to put anything more than 4 tesco shopping bags in the boot.Shame no leather option and no diesel option for UK.Much better looking car than the honda jazz.
It's not a hothatch nor a supercar where the 0- 60mph vould mater much . For every day driving it's perfect. For god sake my 65hp Dacia Sandero gets me everywhere I need in satisfactory pace however I don't go on higway or a track since it's not ment for it . This car in the video however is perfect for everyone who is not to picky abaut the brand and HP. Price unfortunatly is no longer cheap but hey nothing today is 🤷
@tomazikov compare the performance stats with the Fiesta 1.0 mild hybrid (which is about to be discontinued) and you'll see how sluggish it is. I'm looking at potential new cars for next year and am not a badge snob. Why would I trade down a size for something with more power that's somehow slower?
What did you mean about the Renault 5, it was at least 2 years ago I went to a dealer to ask about the 5 and not only is it another year or so but Renault are selling tickets for £150 just to enable us to order a 5 … 🤔 lol … guess again Renault 🤣
The Clio is a fantastic 'compact' hatch...but the 208 just pips it in terms of style. that said the Clio interior is up there with the best. This mid-life face-lift is over-egged! Just too much. Keep it simply. The current GT Line is a really good car.
I have a Zoe and I'm really not a fan of how it looks, but it drives nicely and it's a very efficient little EV. Just has some niggles that I don't like. I'm hoping the new Renault 5 addresses these issues, I absolutely LOVE how it looks (hopefully the design isn't too far off the concept car). Bit strange not offering an EV version of the Clio, given how popular it is.
@@dancooper2072 Thanks, but my comment clearly states 'across the board' meaning this includes all cars. Not all cars are hybrid. Cars in general are very expensive nowadays.
@@DanRyzESPUK actually This is a GAC design from 10 years ago. If you have any idea. But western companies copy alot from China, because no one in the west knows anything about Chinese cars. so western companies get away with it. Another example: is new Ford Bronco is a copy of Tank 300.
2:30 once again a car maker pretending to care about the environment while giving the user cheaper, less durable materials. Leather is much stronger and comes directly from nature and there are environmentally friendly ways to raise cows and dye leathers. Car makers should do the right thing and invest in regenerative farms which farm the right way and protect traditional craftsmanship and local economies-the small rural farm is the beating heart of all countries and if car makers actually cared for the environment they would do the right, more difficult and hard thing and not take the easy option.
I prefer fabric seats tbh. They're far comfier on a cold morning, or when it's been in the sun. And farming isn't necessarily mor eco-friendly than fabric, especially at small scales (which they couldn't use as they'd need large quanities). The idea of a small rural farm is nice, but it's a bit odd to expect car manufacturers to be the ones to prop them up if they can't otherwise compete. Plus its not like traditional craftsmanship is used in car seats, they're almost all machine made anyway.
Sorry I wish this would work but time and time again shows this does not work on large scale. Greed kicks in and innocent animals fair badly in the process. Fabric will at least decrease that innocent suffering.
Not to be picky or anything but I personaly think that it's a mistake to do what manifacturers are doing now but they can't help it if they are forced by EU ecomentalists aka birocrates
Um looks super generic like the golf. Also reminds me of new civic and fords. Could have designed it better. Renault designs need to be different and stand out.
French hybrid? 🤮 How to make the ultimate garbage - replace the only good and fairly reliable thing on french cars - 1.5 diesel engine by even more electronics and tech which is made of the same stuff their croissants are. So unless you are ready to eat the car, which will probably be surprisingly delicious, then dont bother. Once this will come as battery only EV, it may be pretty good as in full EVs isn't all that much tech to keep them going. Good example is Zoe, haven't heard anyone complaining that their car bent in the breeze or started meeting when exposed to the aggressive, almost African like British sun.
