I understand what you mean, had the same experience when I test drove them both, but I think it is because Sandero is around 40KG heavier which is not a lot, and Clio has better suspension etc. I am currently looking to lower my Sandero to see if it will improve the driving experience.
Hi SAevolved. I have 2019 Sandero with the same motor. I took it to Unique Motorsport for stage 2 Software and decat. Now it is currently pushing 83KW and 193NM.
