Video: Renault Mégane R26.R laps the Nurburgring

July 23rd 2008 11:15

The limited edition Mégane R26.R is the last and hottest iteration of the current generation Renault Mégane with a blistering Nurburgring lap time of 8min 17s - the fastest ever time for a front-wheel drive car on the famous racetrack.

Powered by the same 169 kW 2.0-litre turbocharged engine from the Mégane F1 edition, the R26.R's engine is mated to a manual six-speed gearbox with a shorter linkage for even quicker gearshifts. Due to a heavy weight-loss program, the Mégane R26.R weighs a mere 1,230 kg which allows it to accelerate from standstill to 100 km/h in 6.0 seconds and to cover the standing start kilometre in a mere 25.9s.

On June 23, 2008, the Renault Mégane R26.R took to the famous Nordschleife circuit of the Nurburgring to record 8min 17s and here's the video of that run.

Video: Renault Twingo RS

February 6th 2008 10:30

When the Renault Twingo RS was first released alongside the 2008 Renault R28 F1 car last week, we were disappointed that only exterior shots of the sub-compact was revealed.

We're guessing Renault must've read out minds because the French car manufacturer has since released an official video of the 98 kW 1.6-litre Twingo Renault Sport that reveals the interior for the very first time.

Featuring black sports bucket seats with red-stitching and an embroidered 'Renault Sport' logo, the Twingo RS also gets a unique instrument cluster design featuring a centrally mounted digital speedometer and a rev-counter with red back-lighting that sits directly in front of the driver behind the sports steering wheel.

The Renault Twingo RS will make its public debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March.
