  • Road Test: Renault Clio (2005-)

    SAFETY AND SECURITY RATING:

    Renault has achieved a five star EuroNCAP crash test rating for the Clio even before it goes on sale, and while that does not make it unique in its class - the odd Peugeot 1007 can boast as much, as can the 2006 Fiat Punto - it does mean that should you hit something, you should at least be able to crash in five-star comfort. Three-door Clios have six standard airbags, including two anti-submarining bags in the front seats, while curtain airbags are a £200 option. Curiously, when the five-door Clio comes along, it will have only four standard airbags, the repositioned B pillar obviating the need for the seat bags.
