Renault officially unveils its new sixth generation Clio; Will be launching next year

At the Munich motor show, Renault officially unveiled its new sixth-generation Clio. Renault Clio has been a big-volume seller for the automaker, but with growing competition, this model faced challenges in the market.

The new sixth-generation Renault Clio arrives with a significant design update. The update is notable at the front, where an angular nose and new grille are flanked by daytime-running lights that are shaped like bisected diamonds. It features sculpted rear lights and a sporty look.

New Clio is said to redefine the standards of its segment by combining the compact dimensions of a B-segment car with the performance and equipment levels of a C-segment vehicle.
