Our friends over at Autosblog.fr received this image of what looks to be the new 2012 Renault Clio->ke1021 4. This image comes despite the fact that there’s been no official confirmation from Renault on whether it's true.

Supposing that this image is in fact that of the new Clio 4, the car is a fresh take from what we’ve seen of the supposedly new vehicle in the past. For one, this image of the Clio 4 comes with a number of new designs and features, including redesigned headlights, the presence of door handles – yeah, cars need those, by the way - a new set of wheels, and an overall more aggressive approach.

Like we said, Renault->ke72 hasn’t come out with any official announcement on whether this is really the new Clio. But if this is the real deal, we wouldn’t be surprised to see it in the flesh really soon. And if we’re betting people, we’d put some chips down on this hatchback making some sort of appearance at the brand’s hometown auto event, the Paris Motor Show->ke227, which, in case you didn’t know, will open its doors at the end of September.

Until then, we’re definitely going to keep all of you updated when something more definite comes up.
