Renault Clio 1.6 E-TECH full hybrid 145 Esprit Alpine 5dr Auto Hybrid Hatchback, , While Ford is killing off the Fiesta for good Renault is sticking by the Clio, this refreshed version introducing a new design language expressed with sharper looks and improved onboard technology. While you can still – for now – buy it with a regular petrol engine Renault is pushing hard with the hybrid version it introduced previously, this being one of the few electrified cars in its class and a convincing alternative to the likes of the similarly hybridised Toyota Yaris. Renault's system works differently and claims a direct technology transfer from F1, the crisp response matched with excellent fuel economy and no need for plugging in. This and its impressive refinement make it a very appealing package. Renault has a strong track record for safety and, indeed, the extra kit you get over the related Dacia Sandero is one reason for spending a bit more for the Clio. As standard you get automatic emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, the nifty distance warning that turns from green to red if you're not leaving enough room to the car ahead, rear parking sensors and lane departure warning. Credit to the steering tweaking assistance as well – it's usually the first thing we turn off but in the Clio's case it was unobtrusive enough to leave in place. Worth noting that if you want all the kit – adaptive cruise control, blind spot warnings and alerts if you're backing out into unseen traffic – you need to opt for the top Esprit Alpine trim level.
