The stunning gloss black finish of the front bumper mouldings, precise details on the body-coloured side mouldings that contrast with the body-colour door handles, and the door mirrors are some of the few distinct features of the new Clio. Meanwhile, in the Pearl Black model, these features come with an anthracite grey finish. Both versions are fitted with stylish 16-inch Lyria alloy wheels plus extra tinted rear tailgate and windows.
Inside the cabin, the control panel features a centre console, dashboard inserts and zinc grey air vent surrounds. The Clio 20th is furnished with Carminat TomTom satellite navigation, cruise control, climate control, folding and electrically adjustable door mirrors, Renault hands free card, speed limiter, electric rear and front windows, four speakers, USB connection, and 4?20W radio/CD/MP3 player with Bluetooth.
