In this episode of Vintage Car Chronicles, we dive deep into the history of the Renault Clio V6, a car that broke all the rules for hot hatches. Produced between 2000 and 2005, the Clio V6 was based on the humble Clio II but transformed into a mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive beast powered by a 3.0-liter V6 engine. Despite early criticism for its handling and interior, the Clio V6 remains one of the most unique and ambitious projects Renault ever undertook, embodying the spirit of the Renault 5 Turbo. We’ll explore the design process, the collaboration with Tom Walkinshaw Racing (TWR), and how the second phase brought significant improvements. Tune in as we unravel how this wild hot hatch became a collector’s dream.
