Development

The Renault Clio Rally4 weighs 1,080 kilograms (2,380 lb) and features a five-speed sequential gearbox and a turbocharged 1,330-cubic-centimetre (81 cu in) four-cylinder engine, which is more powerful than that in the Rally5 variant.[1][3] It features adjustable shock absorbers, using slightly wider tyres at tarmac events than the Rally5 car.[1][3] The Rally4 car is largely based upon the Rally5 version in most aspects,[2][4] which itself is derived from the standard road-going R.S. Line model of the mark five Clio.[3]

Competition history

The car made its debut at the Targa Florio – Rally Internazionale di Sicilia, driven by Paolo Andreucci.[5]
