4 doors look really really odd for this type of car.

New Clio isn't produced as 3D anymore... and Fabia S2000 is 5D too and it's not that strange.

[miniwintz]

Well, the Fabia is about 10 centimeters shorter, so that explains the more natural proportions even with 5 doors. That Clio looks like a big car compared to 208 (R2) and DS3 (R3) for instance.

I know rally cars are much smaller now than they used to be, but in the current context the Clio just seems out of proportions IMO. Maybe I wasn't clear enough in my post, but to me it's a direct consequence of Renault choosing to produce 4rd gen Clio RS as 4/5-door only.

[Mirek]

Now I understand. Yes, it is relatively big but it's still smaller than Civic R3 is. Toyota GT-86 R3 will be longer too.

[Sulland]

Impressed with the 2 Opel Adam R2 cars. They must be good on asfalt.


How good are they on gravel, compared to the rest of the R2s?

Turbo sound is always great even when the engine is so small
