Renault Clio VI awarded 62% Green NCAP rating despite ICE
The Clio performed well due to its low weight of 1,186kg, efficient three-cylinder engine, and intelligent engineering.
Green NCAP has awarded the Renault Clio VI a 62% Green NCAP rating, or 3.5 stars, despite the car being powered by an internal combustion engine (ICE).
The Clio performed well due to its low weight of 1,186kg, efficient three-cylinder engine, and intelligent engineering.
Green NCAP scored the car 6.8/10 for clean air, 7.1/10 for energy efficiency, and 4.9/10 for greenhouse gases, ranking it as one of the best-performing petrol-powered superminis.
Renault will start UK sales of the Clio VI in 2027. The car is already on sale in the EU.
The Kia EV4 was awarded 90% or five stars by Green NCAP, due to its aerodynamic efficiency, battery pre-conditioning features, and the environmental credentials of Kia’s production plant in Slovakia.
Mazda’s 6e received 85%, or 4.5 stars, due to its aerodynamic shape, efficient powertrain, and effective cabin heating, when compared with its electric peers.
Green NCAP said the impact of the 6e’s manufacturing and distribution held it back.
The Mazda6e is built in China by Changan.
