More Used Renault Sedan Reviews /All Renault Cars

This model of Renault comes at a length of 4.28 meters or almost 14 feet. This is an overall increase of 26mm or just under 1 foot compared to the Renault Clio III. Given the length of this sedan, it is considered as one of the most compact models available on the market today. However, does not compromise on space when it comes to storage. (There will be more information on that later on in the article). The Rear windscreen on the Renault Clio Grand Tour Sedan is a masterpiece in itself; it is steeply raked and is dynamic in its look. It has been topped with a spoiler and you can choose from chrome or black for this and also the roof bars. Sticking with the look of the back of the car for the moment, you will have twin spoilers that have been finished off in chrome; this gives the rear of the car a really sporty look.

At the front of the car, you will find a low spoiler and the grille itself is in the traditional and well known style for Renault, however, has been finished off with chrome around the edges. Renault recognize the fact that people are actually quite young these days when purchasing their first vehicle and are keen to ensure that they successfully tap into this market place. The Renault Grand Tour Sedan is set on low wheels that have been completed in gold alloy; by the way, this is why there is extra length to the car. So, if its sporty you want when looking at your car, the Renault Clio Grand Tour Sedan will not let you down.

As previously mentioned, I promised you more information on the storage space incorporated in the Renault Clio Grand Tour Sedan. Firstly, it comes with seats that can be folded flat to the floor to give you that all important extra space when you need it. In fact, even before folding the seats down, you can expect at least 147 liters or just over 32 gallons of space. You may find that you will rarely need to fold the seats down. One other fantastic feature of this vehicle is that Renault has built it so that the tailgate lowers all the way to the floor. If you have a heavy load or are not so strong, this feature will make loading your car a breeze. Along with this, the other great idea they have had is to integrate the bumper and registration plate into the tailgate. This means that you do not have to lift your luggage over a lip, again making loading way much easier than with other manufacturer's models of this type of sedan. Did you think it had stopped there? Well, it hasn't, Renault also provide you with a drawer for storage which is inbuilt and there is even a stool on the floor of the boot, which can be utilized when opening the tailgate.

When studying the interior of the Renault Clio Grand Tour Sedan, it has seats that are a little unforgiving however, comfortable enough for around town driving or for that leisurely coastal trip at the weekends. You will be provided with a satellite navigation system that has a wider screen than those that are available with other models and it also comes with a joystick for control. On top of that you have a gear lever which is made from neoprene. If it is a sense of space that you are looking for, just look to the roof. This has been made of glass and gives you, the driver and your passengers a clear view of the world above. You almost feel like there is no roof at all, without you having to worry about your hair style being blown out of all proportion! The fact that the roof is glass also adds to the overall look of the sedan and certainly is an attention grabber.

When it comes to the engine in the Renault Clio Grand Tour Sedan, it has the same 194bhp as the top of the range Clio. It has loads of punch and it is possible for you to accelerate as hard as you like through all of the gears, this adds to the sporty feel of the car as when you accelerate hard, it responds with a raspy exhaust note.

In conclusion, if you are looking for a sedan that will look good on the outside and feel good on the inside then the Renault Clio Grand Tour Sedan is the vehicle for you. If you are someone who is often in the situation where you need plenty of storage but would rather drive around in style, again this sedan will not let you down.
