Renault Zoe EV (2013) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

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 ...

Renault Zoe concept EV supermini (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

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 ...

Renaultsport Twingo 133 Cup (2009) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Pulman, 05 October 2009 11:45

Renaultsport does a rather fine line in hot hatches. The outgoing R26R is amazing, the Clio 200 is brilliant, and we’re all fans of the tiny Twingo 133. And now there’s a new Renaultsport Twingo 133, the Cup. But I can already spec a Cup chassis on the Renaultsport Twingo 133, so what’s new? Pen and paper at the ready, ...

Renault Kangoo Be Bop ZE (2009) electric car review

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Oliver, 10 July 2009 16:51

Under the skin of the Renault Kangoo Be Bop ZE electric car, four rather more significant cars are lurking. Starting from 2011, Renault plans to introduce a range of at least four electric vehicles, all of which will share the drivetrain powering this concept car, which we tested on public roads near Paris. There will be a Kangoo van and ...

Renaultsport Twingo 133 'Cup' long-term test review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

the CAR road test team, 26 May 2009 12:41

Long-term test update - 26 May 2009 Is there a more appropriate car for our times? After all, how many of us really, genuinely need anything else other than a tiny, fun, practical tearabout for our day-to-day transportation needs? The Twingo seats four, the boot isn’t huge but I’ve managed to fit a Marshall 2x12 amp and an industrial dehumidifier ...

Renault Clio GT (2009) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Barry, 09 May 2009 16:00

The new Renaultsport Clio 200 Cup might currently be in the spotlight, but there’s another quick Clio lurking in the shadows that deserves its fair share of attention: the GT. Is the Renault Clio GT another Renaultsport derivative, is it? No, no, the GT acts as a next best thing, a kind of warm hatch that’s cheaper to insure, less polluting ...

Renault Clio Cup (2008) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Nick Trott, 24 September 2008 09:00

The Clio Renaultsport Cup is the third Clio to receive the ‘Cup’ moniker. Following in the wheel tracks and skidmarks of the deeply entertaining Clio II 172 Cup and 182 Cup, the Clio Renaultsport 197 Cup features the same suspension set-up as the limited edition Clio 197 R27, taller 5th and 6th gear ratios and optional air conditioning. So, it’s ...

Renault Twingo Renaultsport 133 (2008) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 29 August 2008 15:18

Renault has just unleashed the Twingo Renaultsport. It's the £11,500 little brother to the Clio 197, so it's a bargain, but is it any good? A new-to-the-range 1.6-litre engine provides decent grunt, but the base car is boring to drive - let's find out if Renaultsport has worked a miracle. Forget the Mini Cooper, I want one of those Twingo ...

Renault Clio Sport Tourer 1.5 dCi (2007) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Peter Burgess, 14 December 2007 10:00

The common sense answer to needing a supermini with more room is to buy a Megane-sized hatchback. And the Megane is an apt example here. Not only is it from Renault, it’s sufficiently dimensionally challenged to be closer in concept to the Clio than you might think. Though if you go the whole hog and pick a Megane Sport Tourer, ...

Renault Grand Modus 1.2 TCE 100 (2007) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Peter Burgess, 14 December 2007 10:00

You have to hand it to Renault. After the success of the original Espace, it didn’t sit on its laurels. The Scenic that followed had an even greater impact and had the kudos of being a truly original concept (the Espace owed more than a little something to Chrysler) while the Kangoo was designed as both a van and a ...
