In most vehicles, the OBD port is located under the dashboard on the driver's side, between the steering wheel and the door. The Renault Clio, however, is an exception as the engineers who designed it decided to position the diagnostic port for easier access for those needing to use it for diagnostics.

In this specific model, it is located in the centre console, right in front of the gear lever, and is protected from dust by a cover that can be easily opened with a flat screwdriver or another suitable lever tool.
