These are the very first spy photos of the high-performance model of the soon-to-be-released 2013 Renault Clio supermini, which we will come to know as the Clio RenaultSport or Clio RS.
But wait, how do we know for sure that the camouflaged prototype seen in these photos is indeed the next Clio RS?
Well, that's fairly easy to answer as despite the swirly foil wrap, Renault's engineers made no efforts to hide the rest of the car's trademark racy styling parts.
These include a new front bumper with a wider lower grille sporting a splitter to improve the car's aerodynamics, side skirts, a slightly larger roof spoiler, and a new rear bumper that incorporates a visible diffuser and most telling, a pair of rectangular shaped exhaust pipes on either corner.
