Motors Into Umhlanga

With the introduction of the New Mégane RS 265 LUX 2.0 Turbo to the popular and much-in-demand Renault Sport line-up in South Africa, Renault continues to stay tuned to its customers' needs and wants.

Mégane Renault Sport has earned numerous accolades the worldwide and having scooped the titles of 'Hot Hatch of the Year 2011" and "2012 Best Buys - Hot Hatch" awarded by South Africa's CAR and TopCar magazines respectively, the newcomer has a reputation to live up to. According to Brian Smith, vice president of marketing and communications at Renault South Africa, "the New Mégane RS 265 LUX won't disappoint!

"With its optimised Renault Sport engine, the 265 offers high performance coupled with Intelligent Technology. To reiterate the words Nic Cackett, a top UK road tester, "it's both phenomenally capable and phenomenally rewarding."

Sporty and muscular yet sleek and refined, the three-door New Mégane RS 265 LUX's visual signature is further enforced by the F1-styled blade insert in the front bumper and daytime running LED integrated into the lower segment.

The 2.0 litre, 16-valve, 4 cylinder RS Turbo petrol engine delivers 195kW (265hp) at 5 500 rpm and maximum torque of 360Nm at 3 800 rpm. In tandem with a six-speed gearbox, the powerplant delivers exceptional performance: a 0 to 100kpm sprint clocks up just six seconds while top speed is a remarkable 250kph.

Smart Technology innovations deliver most up-to-the-minute, on-board experience with World-Class safety features as standard.

The service and warranty is Renault's industry-leading 5-year/150 000km mechanical warranty plan. Six-year anti-corrosion warranty and 5-year/90 000km service plans also apply.
