If you're in the market for a car that's affordable and practical, then a used Renault Clio is a great choice. As Renault's best-selling model, it's a hatchback filled with the latest tech features. Its impressive boot space sets it apart from other cars in the supermini segment, and it's great to drive, too.
The newest lineup consists of streamlined engine options, with only two to choose from. Overall, you can find several options, including petrol, diesel and hybrid, paired with a manual or automatic transmission and standard front-wheel drive.
PetrolEven though the Clio is a supermini, there's adequate space inside for everyone to be comfortable, and the cabin has plenty of practical touches.
Interior spaceSince 1990, the Renault Clio has been a popular choice in the UK supermini market. Across five generations, Renault has ensured that every model featured updated technology to meet the needs of the modern car owner. It remains popular among young drivers and the most recent generation comes with a highly efficient hybrid powertrain, appealing to a more eco-conscious and cost-sensitive generation.
Even though it's visually similar to the previous Clio, this generation was designed to offer a more upmarket feel and so was fitted with a plush interior. The company also released a hybrid model, known as the Clio E-Tech, featuring a smooth and highly efficient powertrain.
The all-new Clio has been regarded as more responsive and quieter overall than previous models. The boot space also increased slightly, leaving a little less rear seat room.

At the start of this model, Renault discontinued the three-door hatchback and estate bodystyles due to low sales. Those changes meant that the popular R.S. model would become a five-door hatchback and only come with an automatic gearbox. Renault also streamlined the engine options, leaving every Clio with a turbocharged motor.
A facelift occurred in 2016 with slightly updated exterior styling. The range was also cut down in 2018, leaving just three trims: Play, Iconic and GT Line.

The standard 1.0-litre petrol engines have been the most popular among Clio owners, likely because they are also the least expensive option. Diesel powertrains have earned a good reputation from drivers looking for more efficiency, but the newest hybrid is also gaining in popularity.
Throughout the years, there have been many different trim levels available, such as the Play, Iconic, S Edition, R.S. Line, R.S. Line Bose Edition and the E-Tech. The Iconic has proven most popular among Clio owners with the extra features such as upgraded infotainment system and rear-parking sensors.
Look out for models with the 9.3-inch touchscreen display, which offers clearer graphics as well as a satnav feature for finding new locations with ease. Available rear parking sensors remain a top choice for drivers who need to navigate tight spaces in the city.
As a supermini, the Clio doesn't offer as much room as a people carrier, but it's larger than expected. Three children can fit in the back seat and there are ISOFIX points for car seats. Ample boot space is also helpful for transporting luggage or groceries.
Yes, the most recent generation of Clio comes with a hybrid option. The E-Tech has a 1.6-litre engine working with an electric motor and a 1.2kWh battery to create a combined output of 142bhp. It's quickly becoming one of the most popular engine options.
Yes, there are used Clio models with an automatic gearbox. This option is helpful if you don't want to worry about shifting gears while navigating new roads. There are also manual gearbox models available, which tend to be more cost-effective.
No, Renault hasn't made a Clio with four-wheel drive. Instead, all models include front-wheel drive, which is typical for a supermini.
