Renault Zoe EV (2013) CAR review

Steve Moody, 28 March 2013 12:00

This is a massive launch: the new Zoe is an electric car Renault really needs to succeed, as it’s the tip of a four billion euro arrow, fired years ago by Carlos Ghosn. Certainly, it’s a cracking looking thing, with its cute, stubby looks and stylish, airy interior that is techy without being weird. But is it four billion well ...

Renaultsport Clio 200 Turbo (2013) CAR review

3.5

Ben Pulman, 19 March 2013 09:00

This is the new Renaultsport Clio 200 Turbo, and for hot hatch fans it’s as controversial as the latest PDK-only Porsche 911 GT3. Out has gone the old RS Clio 200’s rev-hungry naturally aspirated 2.0-litre engine and manual gearbox, and in the pair’s place are a turbocharged 1.6 and dual-clutch transmission. Renaultsport is hoping the combination will appeal to a ...

Renault Clio TCe 90 (2012) CAR review

Steve Moody, 12 October 2012 09:30

Forgive my indulgence, but my first ever car was a first generation Clio RSi, and days hurtling round Wiltshire B roads were great ones: sawing at that canted steering wheel, squealing little tyres, with a broken speedo and only the rev counter and my own idiocy for guidance. It’s seems an age ago, not just for me, but for Renault ...

Used cars: how to buy a second-hand Renault Clio 197/200 (2009-2012)

3.5

Ben Barry, 20 March 2012 09:00

While Peugeot dropped the hot-hatch ball after the 306 GTi-6, Renault never really let it go. Based on the third-generation Clio, the 197 debuted in 2006, and immediately went to the top of the class. Its fizzy, naturally aspirated 2.0-litre engine paired brilliantly with a pointy front end and lively torsion-beam rear for a drive that out-classed the Golf GTI ...

Renaultsport Megane 265 Trophy (2011) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 11 July 2011 12:00

Renault’s new Megane RS 265 Trophy recently smashed the Nurburgring lap record for front-wheel drive cars. But does that translate into more on-road fun? Read on for our first drive of the new Renaultsport Megane 265 Trophy to find out... I didn’t even know there was a lap record for FWD cars. It’s a bit like hearing that Blackburn reserves beat ...

Renault Zoe concept EV supermini (2011) CAR review

3.5

Chris Chilton, 21 February 2011 15:51

Renault says the Zoe concept is 90% identical to the production electric car that goes on sale in early 2012. We get behind the wheel to find what it won’t be like at all to drive. What is the Renault Zoe EV? Is it a Clio replacement? No, the Clio will continue, and there’s a new Clio on the way ...

Renault Megane 2.0 GT TCe 180 3dr (2010) CAR review

2.5

Jethro Bovingdon, 26 November 2010 09:24

This is the new Renault Megane GT. Think of it as an RS-lite. The chassis is still developed by Renaultsport but it’s tuned to be more relaxed than the full-on 250 and 250 Cup models. That anonymous Megane GT TCe 180 badge masks the fact that power still comes from a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder, but it’s optimised for torque rather than ...

Renault Wind Roadster (2010) CAR review

3.5

Ben Pulman, 01 July 2010 22:00

The Renault Wind has caused quite a lot of excitement in the CAR office, and not (as you might be thinking) because it gives us a legitimate excuse to make flatulence-based puns. Silly name aside, the Wind is a good looking little coupe-convertible, with a clever flipping roof and a chassis tuned by Renaultsport. Add in competitive pricing – the ...

Renault Fluence ZE electric car (2012) prototype review

Tim Pollard, 07 June 2010 16:26

Renault - and partner firm Nissan - are leading the charge into electric cars and we've just tested the first conventional EV from La Regie: the new 2012 Fluence ZE. Left hand drive models land from June 2011 and right hookers for the UK arrive on these shores in 2012. How much will Renault's Fluence ZE cost? It's not fixed ...

Renault Clio Williams vs Ford Focus RS on CAR video

Tim Pollard, 14 May 2010 07:00

The gods bore a surprising gift to CAR Magazine the other day: the very first and very pristine Renault Clio Williams, a hot hatch that makes many an enthusiast go misty-eyed at the very mention.A small logistical cock-up meant that the Willy turned up on a day when we weren't expecting it – so we rushed out without a camera ...
