A Hatchback Comparison: Renault Clio vs Ford Fiesta
Posted by Group1 Renault on 18 Aug 2023 under Blog, Renault car reviews, Renault Clio
If you are in the market for a smaller car, then two of the most obvious choices have to be the Renault Clio and the Ford Fiesta, with both cars being great hatchbacks offering impressive features.
The Ford Fiesta was given a refresh before it was discontinued, but the facelifted Fiesta offers good value for money, is a reliable choice and is light on fuel. On the other hand, the stylish French-designed new Renault Clio (now in its fifth generation) comes with standard features and exceptional looks that many would expect from a more expensive car.
