Renault Clio II Campus Light Commercial Vans LCVs...
Renault introduced the current third generation Clio passenger car in 2006, but it still markets its predecessor under the Campus banner. The Van derivative is based on this model.
Its 1.5-litre common rail turbo diesel produces 68 bhp and develops 118 lb/ft peak torque at a lowly 1,700rpm. Suspension is MacPherson struts, coil springs, dampers and an anti-roll bar at the front, while the rear has a semi-independent set-up with a torsion beam and trailing arms.
Brakes are ventilated discs at the front and drums at the rear. An anti-lock braking system is fitted as standard. Power steering (electric) is also part of the Renault Clio Van package.
The load bay is predictably small at a trifle under 1 m³ but no one buys a small hatchback-derived van for its load volume Load length and height are both 933mm while width is 989mm between the wheel boxes. Gross payload is 535kg. For such a small van the loading height is a bit steep at 651 mm, but at least four load-tie points are provided.
The cab is comfortable and well laid out. Remote central locking comes as standard, as do driver and passenger airbags.
Extra cost options include electric front windows, air conditioning and front fog lamps. There's also a Renault Sports Pack which includes 14in alloy wheels and a full colour-coded body kit.
This new Renault Clio Van is very civilised to drive with plenty of torque from the little engine, delivered in a smooth and refined manner. In line with all current Renault LCV product, Clio comes with a three year/ 60,000 mile warranty.
A great little common rail engine and a sensible specification
