Renault Clio RS III Coupe

The Renault Clio RS III Coupe reaches 60 mph in 5.51 s and covers a standing quarter mile in 13.99 s, tripping the lights at 101.5 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.32 s and the eighth mile in 9.14 s, reaching 100 mph in 13.57 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Clio RS III Coupe

The 2007 Renault Clio RS III Coupe is a front-drive naturally aspirated coupe of 1,060 kg with 204 bhp, which works out at 192 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.32 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 2,929 cars in the set it is the 1,674th quickest to 60 mph, and the 3rd quickest of the 48 Renaults here. Its 101.5 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 7 of 9 published acceleration figures for this car.

Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Renault Clio RS III Coupe is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 7 of its 9 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
