New Renault Clio Sport Tourer

Clio Sport Tourer is one of the most compact estate cars on the market; just 4,202mm long. It has the same wheelbase as the hatchback (2,575mm), with a rear overhang that is 216mm longer. Vitality and driving pleasure are expressed through coherent styling features such as the inclined tailgate, extended glazed surface and third side window. Yet the neat rear window design, tailgate, aerodynamic roof trim and profiled roof rails (in black or chrome finish, depending on version) declare the car's allegiance to the leisure vehicle clan.

With its long rear overhang of 822mm (216mm longer than on the hatchback), Clio Sport Tourer has one of the largest boots in its category: 439dm3 (under shelf, without removable flap) which is more than 50% bigger (151dm3) than Clio III hatchback. The asymmetrical split-fold rear seats free up additional loading space up to 1,277dm3 (up to ceiling; 239dm3 more than the hatchback). With the smallest rear seat section folded down, Clio Sport Tourer can carry four people plus leisure equipment up to 1,450mm Cockpit ergonomics are among the best in this vehicle category, with features such as a height adjustable steering wheel (plus reach adjustment on certain versions).

Models with the automated manual transmission (available with the 85hp 1.5 dCi engine) also feature ergonomic shift paddles behind the steering wheel. The seats achieve an excellent tradeoff between comfort and support. The seat adjustment controls are located for convenient, intuitive access. And the adjustable seat height means that drivers of all shapes and sizes are sure to find an optimally comfortable driving position. Clio Sport Tourer offers an ideal trade-off between driving pleasure, performance and fuel economy, and is available with a choice of three petrol engines (75/80hp 1.2 16V, 100hp TCE and 110hp 1.6 16V) and three diesel engines (70hp, 85hp and 105hp 1.5 dCi). Comfort and acoustics on Clio Sport Tourer are remarkable for a car in this category. Renault's new estate car is ecological as well as economical, especially in the versions powered by the 100hp TCE petrol engine or the 1.5 dCi diesels.


Clio Sport Tourer returns low fuel consumption with all its engines (identical to figures for Clio III hatchback). Except for the 110hp 1.6 16V powerplant, all Clio Sport Tourer engines meet the three criteria required for Renault eco appellation:

•	CO2 emissions less than 140g/km, or biofuel compatibility
•	Manufactured in a ISO 14001-ceruified factory (Bursa)
