Clio continues heritage…

Production of the current Clio will continue at the Renault factory in Slovenia leaving the factories in France to produce the New Clio.

The Clio II range sees the revival of the Campus name, which was last seen in the 1990’s when the Renault 5 remained on sale at the launch of the first generation Clio.

Now Clio Campus will continue alongside New Clio for several years, providing stylish, practical comfort at an affordable price.

Clio Campus is available to order now in three-door only, starting from £7,895 rising to £9,495 a price reduction of over £300 compared to the previous equivalent versions. Whereas New Clio is a similar price to current Clio, with this reduction in price Renault can now offer a lower entry-level option.

Two versions, three Euro IV engines

Clio Campus will be available in two versions – Clio Campus and Clio Campus Sport. The Clio Campus has a choice of the 1.2 60 petrol or 1.5 dCi 68 diesel, where as the Clio Campus Sport has the 1.2 16V 75 and 1.5 dCi 68. Each engine is fully Euro IV emission compliant.

The Campus versions share the same equipment specification as the previous special edition Clio’s they are based on, the Rush (Campus) and Extreme 4 (Campus Sport).

However as well as gaining Euro IV engines, the dCi engine available on both Campus and Campus Sport benefits from an increase in power from 65hp to 68hp.
