Renault Clio powertrain evolution and market availability

Overview

Renault is evaluating the powertrain options for the seventh generation of its Clio model. Brand head Fabrice Cambolive indicated that a decision has not yet been made regarding whether the future model will retain an internal combustion engine, a move that would align with the company’s ‘futuREady’ strategy to achieve 100% electrified sales in Europe by 2030.

In the current 2026 market, the Renault Clio remains available in several configurations, including TCe 115 CV Evolution, TCe 120 CV Eco-G LPG, and Full Hybrid E-Tech 160 CV models. While the industry trends toward three-cylinder engines to reduce emissions, the Clio continues to offer various engine types to meet consumer preferences for reliability and performance.
