They would die for that thing.”
15 June 1981 w:Philip H. Dougherty Advertising; TV Spots Recognized With Clios https://web.archive.org/web/20150524081724/https://www.nytimes.com/1981/06/15/business/advertising-tv-spots-recognized-with-clios.html In all there were 67 winners for 57 commercials in 53 categories, in both the product and production areas. Not only do agencies enter their commercials to be judged for creative excellence but so do companies involved in the various facets of production. So two outfits entering the same work can each take a Clio, as was the case with Federal Express. McCann-Erickson won both its Clios with one of its biggest clients, Coca-Cola.
23 October 2003 w:John Furia Jr. Plot line: Drink Pepsi! One advertising executive recently predicted that content and advertising will be fully integrated and, “in the end, corporate clients will be happy, and the writers and actors won’t be able to tell an Emmy from a Clio.”

10 January 2010 Martin Love Where the wild thing is https://web.archive.org/web/20250610053123/https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2010/jan/10/renault-clio-200-cup-martin-love The world record is held by Terry Grant, who reverse-swerved his Renault into a slot only 32cm longer than the overall length of his car. Impressive stuff and it made me wonder what he could have pulled off with the Renaultsport 200 Cup – which, in case you hadn't spotted, is actually a Clio – with too few X chromosomes. It's exactly 20 years since the first Clio was produced – taking over the mantle of the much-loved Renault 5.
8 January 2020 Jonah Weiner Is the Viral Non-Ad Ad the Future of Advertising? https://web.archive.org/web/20200108102029/https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/08/magazine/is-the-viral-non-ad-ad-the-future-of-advertising.html Renault’s ad, after all, racked up millions of its views in the United States, a nation where its cars are not even for sale; and even if they were, why would viewers feel compelled to buy a Clio after watching a Clio ad that works so assiduously to avoid selling them a Clio until the last possible moment?
18 March 2023 Peter Allen; Olga Cheng Papa...? Nicole...? MailOnline reunites the stars of classic 90s Renault Clio ads - who haven't seen each other in 25 YEARS https://web.archive.org/web/20230318092005/https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-11871359/MailOnline-reunites-Papa-Nicole-Stars-classic-90s-Renault-Clio-TV-ads-meet-25-years.html Polls at the time suggested that Nicole was more of a household name than John Major, Britain’s then Prime Minister, while 300,000 Clios were sold over the seven years the ads ran, also featuring Paris and the French Alps.
