The Renault Clio Sport 197 is powered by a naturally aspirated, 4-cylinder, 16 valve engine which generates 145kW (197hp - hence the name) at 7,250rpm and 215Nm of torque at 5,550rpm.

The engine aside, the actual chassis of the car itself, is slightly different compared with those of Clio III. Modifications include a slightly longer wheelbase and wider front and rear tracks (lengthened by 10mm and with an increase in track width of 48mm to the front and 50mm to the rear). Additionally there is a double-axis strut system and aluminium components to complete the package.

External features include a wider front and rear wing, lowered suspension (15mm) with side skirts, a semi-rigid under-bumper splitter joined together with the extractor vents and diffuser to emphasis the car’s sporty nature.

The Sporty Clio rides on 215/45/R17 light alloy wheels which house a set of Brembo brake calipers and big discs.

From the inside the 197 interior also receives its share of sporty features such as aluminium pedals and perforated-leather steering wheel with red centre-point stitching, gear-change indicator light while the Renault Sport logo appears on the instrument backgrounds, door sills and front seats.

Being a Renault you can be assured the Clio is about as safe as a car can get. The 197 comes with eight airbags. Additionally there are new generation height adjustable front headrests, integrated seatbelt pretensioners and load limiters. The usual package is also included with ABS with Electronic Brake Distribution and a switchable sports-tuned ESP stability control system.
