2019 Megane R.S. – Racing is in its Genes!

The very DNA of Renault’s Formula 1 Racing team is genetically engineered into both the Megane R.S. 280 Lux EDC and the Renault Megane R.S. 280 Cup, and at the heart of these amazing pieces of automotive engineering beats the 1.8 litre 16-valve, 4 Cylinder Turbo Direct Injection Engine. Built to stun those who see them, surprise those who think they know them and invigorate those who drive them, the Renault Megane R.S. Range is unlike any Conventional Sports Car we’ve ever built before. Yes, the passion for French style and sporty good looks is there, but so too is the brute force of a thoroughbred racing vehicle that is far beyond what many have come to expect to find in an everyday vehicle. Although there is a distinctly different feel to these two vehicles, this is all down to trim levels and sports packages and transmission, as these racy little numbers both have an athlete’s heart and will delight and astound you as you enjoy a vehicle that offers both more bark as well as a lot more bite than your regular Hot Hatch! Want to experience Renault Megane R.S. Range for yourself? Then book a test drive of this amazing adrenalin machine at our Group 1 Renault Showrooms in Stellenbosch and Johannesburg.

2019 Renault Megane RS Engine Specs

The beating heart of a true champion powers both the Megane R.S. 280 Lux EDC and the Renault Megane R.S. 280 Cup in the shape of the engineering marvel that is Renaults 1.8 Litre 16-valve, 4 Cylinder Turbo Direct Injection Engine which puts out an astounding amount of power! But don’t simply take our word for it, take a look at these mind blowing Renault Megane R.S. Engine Specs below:

Engine Type	Max Power Rating	Peak Torque
1.8 Litre 16-valve Turbo	205kW	390Nm

All of this is controlled using Renault’s 6-speed manual gearbox in the Renault Megane R.S. 280 Cup, and the EDC Automatic Double Clutch in the Megane R.S. 280 Lux EDC, allowing both of these lightning fast vehicles to blow away the competition with a standard performance of 0-100 kph in 5.0 seconds and a 400 meter sprint in 14.0 seconds. And if you think that is impressive, then you’ll be amazed at the Renault Megane R.S. 1000 meter sprint which can be done in a jaw dropping 25.0 seconds.

New 2019 Renault Megane R.S. Review

It is our opinion that the Renault Mégane R.S. is the benchmark vehicle that you need to turn to when you are looking for focused handling, agility and stability in the competitive hot hatchback segment of the South African automotive market. This is thanks to the amazingly sharp responsiveness that comes as standard in both the Megane R.S. 280 Lux EDC and the Renault Megane R.S. 280 Cup versions of this exceptionally well designed Formula 1® Inspired car.

Megane R.S. Engine Performance and Drive

Take a look at the top of this page and you’ll see and engine spec breakdown that gives you not one, but two of the finest-handling cars in its class! All of which are backed by Renault’s years of experience in Formula 1® and Rally Racing. In fact, all you need to do is fire up the New 1.8 Litre Direct Injection Turbo Engine and you’ll quickly hear that there is a very purposeful thrum from the exhaust. Then simply touch the throttle, and you’ll instantly see the needle sweep effortlessly around the rev counter. But it is once you apply pressure to the aluminium pedal unit that the true racers breeding comes to the fore.

Comfort & Practicality in a Renault Sports Car

Both of the Renault Megane R.S. Models are three-door only and their boot opening is high and narrow with a massive loading capacity (you seriously need to see how big, so ask your Group 1 Renault Sales Assistant helping you to open up the trunk). However, they also both have split-folding rear seats as standard, which helps to make ample space for even some of the bulkiest packages or suitcases. Both the rear and front seat spaces are more than adequate and the comfortable front seats provide a comfortable amount of leg space for both driver and passengers alike.

Why Choose a Renault Megane R.S.?

The Renault Mégane is a well established car and is much loved both here in South Africa and abroad. It is one of the vehicles that helped turn the Renault brand around, and as such it is possibly one of their most reliable.

This reliability has not been lost in the vehicle’s transition to Renault Sports status and is part and parcel of what the modern R.S. Vehicle has become. On top of this, both the Megane R.S. 280 Lux EDC and the Renault Megane R.S. 280 Cup are part of the Renault Racing heritage, and because of this we highly recommend them to any drivers who are looking for that little bit of extra excitement, that deep seated need for speed and that overall love for the freedom of the open road.
