"While it’s a bit of a stretch to directly compare a screaming F1 car with a hot hatch like the little Clio, Renault tries hard to inject a bit of the excitement of their F1 program into the RS 197. Take the rear diffuser—it’s unlikely that the Clio will need its downforce, but it definitely looks exciting. The RS 197 has several aero tweaks like this, and suffice it to say that their main impact is visual—they do look great. While actual on-track performance can’t quite compare to an open-wheeler, the near 200-horsepower naturally aspirated 2-liter engine under the hood is responsive and downright fun in such a small car. It may sound clichéd, but the Clio’s performance can only be compared to a go-kart, with sharp and nimble handling and few bad habits. Chuck the RS 197 hard into a corner and instead of drama, the Renault hunkers down and powers through. Renault’s many years of experience hotting-up Clios, from the legendary Clio Williams to the various RS models that followed, show through in this ultimate version of the third-generation car."—Official description[1]
The 2007 Renault Clio RS 197 - abbreviated as "Renault Clio" - is a front-wheel drive hot hatch by Renault.
It appears in Forza Motorsport 2 as part of the December Car Pack, and as standard in Forza Motorsport 3 and Forza Motorsport 4.
It is featured in Forza Horizon 4 since the Series 17 update as a seasonal reward.
Synopsis[]
The Clio RS (Renaultsport) 197 is a high-performance version of the third generation, pre-facelift Renault Clio. It gets agressive front and rear bumpers as well as an F1-inspired rear diffuser.
It was replaced by the 2010 Renault Clio R.S. facelift variant, which in turn was replaced by the Renault Clio R.S. 200 EDC in late 2012 that was based on the fourth generation Clio.
