http://Carwp.blogspot.com.br (from Renault Press Release) The limited-edition Renault Clio R.S. 220 EDC Trophy: order books now open in France <br />Following its unveiling at the Geneva Motor Show on March 3, the limited-edition Renault Clio R.S. 220 EDC Trophy is now available for sale in France where its price stands at €28,900, inclusive of value-added tax. <br />Compared with the Clio R.S. 200 EDC, the new limited-edition version features a more powerful engine (20 extra horsepower, plus up to 40Nm more torque), a sportier chassis and refined EDC transmission. The limited-edition Clio R.S. 220 EDC Trophy is available with a new body colour and comes with new 18-inch wheels, unprecedented sports seats and carbon-look interior trim details. <br /> <br />1. A Clio R.S. that’s even more potent in every domain <br /> <br />- Compared with the Clio R.S. 200 EDC, the engine of this limited-edition version has 10 percent more power and up to an extra 40Nm of torque thanks to new engine mapping, a larger turbo, an intake system designed to minimise back pressure losses and a revised exhaust system to accommodate a Euro6 catalytic converter. <br />- Maximum power has been increased to 220hp at 6,050rpm. <br />- Maximum torque rises to 260Nm (a gain of 20Nm), although 280Nm is possible thanks to a ‘torque boost’ function in fourth and fifth gears. <br />- The CO2 emissions of the Trophy limited-edition version have been homologated at 135g/km*, equivalent to combined-cycle fuel consumption of 5.9 litres/100km. Following the switch to Euro6 legislation, the same figure for the Clio R.S. 200 EDC has risen to 133g/km (an increase of 11g/km compared with the figure announced at the time of the car’s launch in 2013). <br /> <br /> <br />- The car’s EDC transmission has been revised to achieve gear changes that are up to 30 percent faster: <br />- Down changes are more rapid thanks notably to reduced steering wheel paddle travel, <br />- There is now greater flexibility in ‘Sport’ mode to combine driving in built-up areas and out of town, <br />- The Stop&Start system works in ‘Normal’ mode but is disconnected in ‘Sport’ and ‘Race’ modes, <br /> <br />The chassis of the limited-edition Clio R.S. 220 EDC Trophy has been lowered and stiffened. <br />- The car sits 20mm lower at the front and 10mm lower at the rear (unladen). Stiffer dampers have been fitted and are coupled with hydraulic bump stops. <br />- Ultra-quick steering: a new, faster rack (ratio reduced by 10 percent from 14.5:1 to 13.2:1) makes steering even more precise and direct. <br />- The limited-edition Clio R.S. 220 EDC Trophy is fitted with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tyres (205/40R18). <br /> <br />2. Seductive appeal and recognisable at a glance <br /> <br />- The Trophy limited-edition version of the Clio R.S. 220 EDC stands out thanks to the following features: <br />- A distinctive new matt body colour: Pearlescent Givre (optional, matched with a gloss black roof). Other available colours are Glacier White, Deep Black, Flamme Red and Sirius Yellow, <br />- 18-inch black diamond-effect Radical wheels, <br />- Trophy badging on the front spoiler, door trims and individually numbered door sills. <br /> <br />The limited-edition version’s equipment package is sure to satisfy enthusiasts: <br />- Embossed leather-trimmed steering wheel, <br />- Exclusive styling: heated leather sports seats with integral head rests and carbon-look air vent surrounds and door trims. The gear lever base plate and air-vent inserts are finished in satin-effect chrome instead of anodised red, <br />- The limited-edition Clio R.S. 220 EDC Trophy can be ordered with the optional R.S. Monitor on-board telemetry system. Potent and fun, the system features a function that provides five different levels of throttle pedal sensitivity. <br /> <br />The Clio R.S. 220 EDC Trophy is a numbered limited edition that delivers great value for money in performance terms (220hp for less than €29,000). It targets exacting customers such as track day enthusiasts and those who appreciate Renault Sport unrivalled expertise. <br /> <br />* Fuel consumption and CO2 emissions figures homologated in accordance with applicable legislation. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Limited-edition Clio R.S. 220 EDC Trophy prices (in France) <br /> RRP <br />Limited-edition CLIO R.S. 220 EDC Trophy €28,900 <br /> <br />Options RRP <br />Reversing camera €450 <br />European mapping €120 <br />R.S.
