In addition to restructuring its F1 team to come back with a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/01\/31\/renault-f1-launches-r30-with-back-to-the-future-livery\/\">fresh design<\/a> for 2010, the French automaker has recently unveiled an innovative <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/02\/05\/officially-official-renault-drops-the-top-on-megane-at-geneva\/\">new Megane coupe-convertible<\/a>, the equally interesting <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/02\/02\/geneva-preview-renault-flip-top-wind-roadster\/\">Wind roadster<\/a> and a slew of new panel vans. All the while, Renault is celebrating the 20th anniversary of its bread-and-butter model, the Clio.<\/p>\n<p> Over the years, Renault has sold a staggering 10 million units of the Clio, putting it on par with the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/model\/e-class\">Mercedes-Benz E-Class<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/model\/camry\">Toyota Camry<\/a> as the 20th top-selling car of all time, but in a shorter timeframe. To kick off the festivities, Renault has released special edition versions of the Clio hatchback (both three- and five-door configurations), Clio wagon and Clio RS hot hatch. <\/p>\n<p> All the 20th anniversary Clios get a mouthful of black trim and, of course, the requisite special badging. The hatch and wagon can be ordered in a variety of color combinations, while the RS special comes exclusively in two-tone white and black, complimented by 17-inch BeBop wheels. Equipment levels depend on the market, with orders already taken in France ahead of other European markets starting next month. Pricing starts at &euro;14,350 (just shy of twenty grand in Benjamins), with the Clio RS 20th commanding &euro;24,700 (about $34k USD).
