Renault’s heritage in producing funky, stylish and practical small cars is evident in its Clio and Modus models, a line-up that was significantly enhanced with the introduction of New Twingo, which debuted last year for the first time in right-hand drive in the UK.
Demand for New Twingo has increased considerably since its launch, with the Dynamique and GT trims – the versions available in the UK – proving especially popular throughout Europe. Now, Renault’s small car success is set to grow even further with the launch of a new entry-level Twingo Extreme 1.2 60, priced at £7,500 and beats some of its closest competitors on value, coming in at £400 less than the entry-level Fiat 500.

For the second year running, the Clio Renaultsport 197 has been crowned ‘Hot Hatch Car of the Year’ by Track & Race Car magazine. Judging the very best hot hatches at Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground at its annual shoot-out, the magazine said the limited-edition 197 F1 Team R27 saw off, amongst others, the Honda Civic Type-R, Peugeot 207 GTi, Vauxhall Astra and Corsa VXR to claim the top accolade.
Editor, Keith Wood, said, “It’s head and shoulders above everything else here for pure track day fun.” Special correspondent, John Hayman, summed up the Clio “Without doubt it’s a non-compromised track car, and it shows and rewards for being so. That’s why it’s the unquestioned winner for me.”
