Renault Clio RS Monaco GP Carries on the Tradition in Geneva

With 200 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque on tap, courtesy of a 1.6-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder, the Clio RS would make a fine fit on North American roads. 100 km per hour arrives in 6.7 seconds while the Clio RS tops out at 230 km/h. Power is transmitted to the front wheels via a six-speed, dual-clutch transmission.

Renault brought out the Monaco GP edition of the Clio RS at the Geneva Motor Show, marking the fourth car to honor the French principality's annual Formula One race, after the Laguna and Megane coupes and the Megane RS. Boasting pearlescent white paint (which looked pretty weird under the colored lighting of the Renault stand), the option of a contrasting roof and other blacked-out styling features. Monaco GP badges and a numbered plaque round out the tweaks for this purely cosmetic package.
