Geen 2.0T en ook geen 1.8T.
Volgens een 'bron' wordt het een 1.6 biturbo...

Lijkt me speculatie, waarom in de espace een 1.8T met 225 pk droppen (die dus ook in de Alpine gebruikt wordt maar dan met 250 pk). Maar om 300 pk te halen gaan we naar een 1.6 en pakken we niet de 1.8?
Daarnaast is er maar 1 variant van die 1.6 die meer dan 220 pk levert, en die zit in de (geflopte) delta wing, en dat is een race auto waarin een blok best binnen 10k op mag zijn. (kwa ontwikkel kosten lijkt het me ook niet erg logisch maar dat terzijde, daar trekt Renault zich niet altijd wat van aan
)
Als we dan toch aan het speculeren zijn
https://youtu.be/wdhRdRCS1uo
Dat klinkt toch niet als een 1.6 Clio RS / Megane GT maar meer als dit:

Haha, lekker hè. Meest logisch lijkt me ook de 1.8 TCe overigens.
Ik weet het ook niet, vandaar de 'check', maar hij klonk vrij overtuigend.

In het filmpje v/d megane, vanaf 1:10 komt er toch wel een fantastisch geluid uit, ik vind het twijfelachtig dat de 1.6 dat geluid zou kunnen produceren
Nog een paar weken wachten en we weten het![cocktail (D)](./images/smilies/coctail.gif)

1200 pk moet lukken
maar de vraag is voor hoe lang, dit seizoen 4 motoren, 6085 km race afstand, dus minimaal 1521 km moet de motor het volhouden.
Ongeveer de inrij afstand van een normale motor
Volgend seizoen al naar 3 motoren per seizoen...

Eerste indruk is goed met 280 of later 300pk met goede specs. Er lijken veel keuze opties te zijn, ik heb alleen nog nergens iets over eventuele Recaro's gelezen
![:-(](./images/smilies/aiwebs_003.gif)
Het geluid uit de uitlaat (in het bovenstaande filmpje vanaf 14 minuten ongeveer) is al wel goed en hopelijk komt er ook nog een Akrapovic (op de Trophy)
Ik heb toch al best veel beeldmateriaal voorbij zien komen en toch de nodige (kleine) verschillen gezien tussen het materiaal.
Kleine opsomming:
- Vin op het dak in zwart of carrosseriekleur
- Gewone of electronische handrem
- Grijze of zwarte schakelflippers

Performance-driven design
Wider tracks for outstanding driving dynamics
New Renault Mégane R.S.’s expressive, sporty lines point to the model’s performance pedigree and pay tribute to Renault’s longstanding involvement in topflight motorsport.
New Renault Mégane R.S. stands out through its specific proportions. In addition to the bespoke lines of its flanks, including wider wings which have been extended by 60mm and 45mm at the front and rear respectively compared with Mégane GT. Meanwhile, its overall width has been increased and new 18 and 19-inch wheels have been designed to provide a better stance and further enhance cornering performance.
Forceful styling features incorporating cues from the world of motorsport
The new front bumper incorporates:
- A Formula 1-style blade which, in addition to being a Renault Sport styling hallmark and symbolic of Renault’s
commitment to Formula 1, is picked out in a distinctive Gun Metal Grey satin finish that contrasts sharply with the
bodywork’s high-gloss sheen.
- A wide air intake to provide air for the intercoolers and engine cooling.
- A specific front grille complete with a diamond grid pattern revisited by Renault Sport.[/list]
The design of the sides features:
- A silhouette inspired by New Renault Mégane, with sculpted, sensuous lines accentuated by the R.S. version’s wider
tracks and wings.
- Extractor vents located behind the front wheels.
- A specific sill design incorporating a black blade that runs along the bottom edge to visually connect the front
and rear of the car and suggest a ‘flat floor’ effect, a common feature in motorsport.[/list]
Rear:
- The new lip spoiler with body-colour vertical mountings designed to generate greater downforce underlines the
width of New Renault Mégane.
- The new rear bumper incorporates:
- Mégane R.S. hallmark, centrally-positioned exhaust pipe with a prismatic finish.
- A working diffuser inspired by the world of Formula 1 to negate lift at higher speeds.[/list]
A specific new body colour
A new body colour has joined the Mégane R.S. family – Volcanic Orange. Like Renault Sport’s iconic Liquid Yellow, the new finish benefits from special work to combine a unique sheen with a special effect as light reflects off the body. It also injects added dynamism and is perfectly coordinated with the car’s cabin where the following features contribute to New Renault Mégane R.S.’s distinctive interior ambience:
- Sports front seats with integrated head rests.
- A predominantly charcoal grey cockpit with red top-stitching,
- A choice of two upholsteries (‘carbon fibre weave’ or Alcantara® ),
- Bespoke aluminium pedal and gear lever.
Renault Sport’s visual branding common to both its road cars and the world of racing
Renault Sport took advantage of the presentation of Renault’s latest Formula 1 car – the R.S.17 – in London, in February, to reveal its new logo which is shared by Renault Sport Racing and Renault Sport Cars. Now, for the very first time, this badging – emblematic of Renault’s sporting heritage – appears on the tailgate of one of the brand’s road-going models – New Renault Mégane R.S.
Unrivalled driving pleasure courtesy of Renault Sport’s expertise
4CONTROL chassis: an exclusive in New Renault Mégane’s class
Renault Sport’s acclaimed engineering expertise has taken the performance of New Renault Mégane R.S. to a new level thanks to two new features that are unique in the car’s segment.
- Courtesy of Renault’s 4CONTROL system with four-wheel steering (a standard feature of both the model’s Cup and
Sport chassis versions), New Renault Mégane R.S. is even more nimble through tight turns and more stable when
cornering at higher speeds. The steering is more incisive while the turning circle is even tighter when
manoeuvring. Carefully configured by Renault Sport, 4CONTROL generates a whole new level of driving enjoyment in
the segment.
- Front and rear hydraulic compression stops, a technology derived from the world of motorsport, provide additional
damping and eliminate the effects of rebound by performing the following functions:
They ensure a high level of chassis efficiency on the Cup chassis version irrespective of the type of road.
Combined with the Sport chassis, they deliver unprecedented comfort in the segment.
New Renault Mégane R.S. carries over the key features that helped to forge the success of previous-generation versions.
- The PerfoHub independent steering axis front suspension has been completely redesigned to cater for New Renault
Mégane R.S.’s new geometry and is stiffer than before.
- The new Torsen® limited slip differential that comes with the Cup chassis features different lock-up values under
acceleration and deceleration for enhanced traction and higher cornering speeds.
- The suspension settings of both versions are specific (springs, dampers, bump stops and anti-roll bar stiffness).
An all-new engine that benefits from synergies within the Alliance
New Renault Mégane R.S. is equipped with an all-new turbocharged engine equipped with direct fuel injection.
- This 1.8-litre (1,798cc) four-cylinder unit generates 280hp (205kW) at 6,000rpm and 390Nm of torque, positioning
it firmly amongst the class’s front-runners in terms of peak torque.
- Maximum torque is available from 2,400rpm up to 5,000rpm.
To enable this engine to produce this level of power and torque under the bonnet of New Renault Mégane R.S., Renault Sport focused its development work primarily on the cylinder head, air intake and exhaust.
- The cylinder head has been completely redesigned with combined input from the experts at Renault Sport Cars and
Renault Sport Racing Formula 1 engineers.
- The revised, higher-capacity dual-intake air filter features improved permeability.
- The Twin Scroll turbo significantly enhances flexibility and response at low revs.[/list]
This engine emits 155g/km of CO2 (a considerable 11% reduction compared with the previous generation Mégane R.S.), while NEDC combined-cycle fuel consumption stands at 6.9 litres per 100km (which equates to approximately 41mpg).
A choice of two types of transmission
For the first time, New Renault Mégane R.S. offers a choice of transmission for its new 280hp TCe engine.
- Six-speed manual gearbox.
- Six-speed EDC (Efficient Dual Clutch) automatic transmission.[/list]
The ratios and gearshift calibration were developed by Renault Sport to combine performance with efficient fuel consumption, while the EDC transmission’s gear shift times have been optimised for greater performance and driving enjoyment.
The EDC transmission stands out through a number of specific features:
- Paddle-shifters – of a type similar to those used in motor racing – allow the driver to change gear without having
to take their hands off the steering wheel when cornering.
- Multi-Change Down technology ensures fast sequential down-changing and allows drivers to downshift several gears
in quick succession under braking. This ensures the vehicle is in the most appropriate gear to tackle the
following corner.
- Launch Control for optimised getaways, directly inspired by motorsport technology. This is available in either
Race mode or Sport mode, where it works in conjunction with the specially-adapted traction control to produce a
textbook start even in low-grip situations.
A 300 horsepower / 400Nm Trophy version
Before the end of 2018, Renault Sport will introduce a Trophy version of New Renault Mégane R.S., the engine of which will produce 300hp and 400Nm of torque. It will incorporate a number of technologies geared to performance, including the Cup chassis and 19-inch wheels as standard equipment.
The performance of a car is also gauged by its braking ability. Renault Sport has introduced two new features to upgrade New Renault Mégane R.S.’s stopping power:
- New 355mm front discs with Brembo callipers.
- Optional bi-material cast iron and aluminium brake discs.
Upgraded R.S. Monitor
Thanks to its on-board telemetry system, R.S. Monitor, Renault Sport extends the R.S. experience beyond the act of simply driving. The latest version features new graphics and is even more user-friendly, with a choice of two configurations:
- R.S. Monitor displays the driver’s performance in real time on the R-LINK 2 screen.
- R.S. Monitor Expert provides drivers with the opportunity to connect a camera (either an independent camera or
their smartphone camera) to film their drive. They can then play back and analyse their run thanks to the
incorporation of performance data in the image. They can even share the film on social media.
- There is a bespoke website for Renault Sport customers.
- R.S. Replay allows owners to engage with other members of the Renault Sport community by uploading their
recordings, playing them back and comparing runs.
Performance in all situations
R.S. Vision, Renault Sport’s lighting system
Already a feature of New Clio R.S., Renault’s multi-reflector R.S. Vision LED lighting system was a natural choice for New Renault Mégane R.S. Taking the form of a chequered flag – another nod to the world of motor racing – it is incorporated in the front bumper and frames the F1-style blade. This patented technology, which is exclusive to Renault Sport, delivers high-performance lighting and includes the fog lights, cornering lights and dipped and main beam head lights. R.S. Vision stands out as an unprecedented lighting package in New Renault Mégane R.S.’s segment to ensure a level of visibility worthy of the car’s high-performance pedigree.
Meanwhile, for the first time on Mégane R.S., Renault’s trademark C-Shaped lighting signature incorporates the vehicle’s direction indicators.
A personalised experience courtesy of MULTI-SENSE
Renault’s MULTI-SENSE system and its choice of five driving modes personalise the driving experience by adapting engine response (via the pedal mapping), the firmness of the steering and gear shift speeds .
- Comfort mode: helps to minimise fuel consumption during everyday use.
- Normal mode: the ideal compromise between comfort, acoustics and performance.
- Sport mode: sportier performance, enhanced engine response, a more satisfying engine sound and firmer steering,
while the ESC threshold has been raised.
- Race Mode: designed for track use and unfettered performance thanks to sportier 4CONTROL settings for enhanced
agility, with the ESC turned off.
- Perso mode: New Renault Mégane R.S.’s technologies can be activated or switched off at will to enjoy a truly
personalised drive.
The R.S. Drive button provides shortcut access to the Sport and Race modes thanks to a short or long press respectively.
Driver aids designed for everyday use
Now a five-door hatchback, New Renault Mégane R.S. is even more suited to everyday use, while losing nothing of its dynamic, sporty character.
A suite of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) allows it to be driven in all types of situation.
Its palette of driving aids – all accessed and activated or deactivated via the R-LINK 2 tablet – provide the following functions:
- Reassure: Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Active Emergency Braking System (AEBS),
- Alert: Lane Departure Warning (LDW); Safe Distance Warning (SDW); Traffic Sign Recognition with Over Speed
Prevention (TSR with OSP) and Blind Spot Warning (BSW),
- Assist: Reversing camera; front, rear and side parking sensors; and Easy Park Assist (hands-free parking).
New Renault Mégane R.S. comes with Renault’s high-end R-LINK 2 multimedia system complete with a large 8.7-inch (22cm) TFT display.

in quick succession under braking. This ensures the vehicle is in the most appropriate gear to tackle the
following corner.
- Launch Control for optimised getaways, directly inspired by motorsport technology. This is available in either
Race mode or Sport mode, where it works in conjunction with the specially-adapted traction control to produce a
textbook start even in low-grip situations.
A 300 horsepower / 400Nm Trophy version
Before the end of 2018, Renault Sport will introduce a Trophy version of New Renault Mégane R.S., the engine of which will produce 300hp and 400Nm of torque. It will incorporate a number of technologies geared to performance, including the Cup chassis and 19-inch wheels as standard equipment.
The performance of a car is also gauged by its braking ability. Renault Sport has introduced two new features to upgrade New Renault Mégane R.S.’s stopping power:
- New 355mm front discs with Brembo callipers.
- Optional bi-material cast iron and aluminium brake discs.
Upgraded R.S. Monitor
Thanks to its on-board telemetry system, R.S. Monitor, Renault Sport extends the R.S. experience beyond the act of simply driving. The latest version features new graphics and is even more user-friendly, with a choice of two configurations:
- R.S. Monitor displays the driver’s performance in real time on the R-LINK 2 screen.
- R.S. Monitor Expert provides drivers with the opportunity to connect a camera (either an independent camera or
their smartphone camera) to film their drive. They can then play back and analyse their run thanks to the
incorporation of performance data in the image. They can even share the film on social media.
- There is a bespoke website for Renault Sport customers.
- R.S. Replay allows owners to engage with other members of the Renault Sport community by uploading their
recordings, playing them back and comparing runs.
Performance in all situations
R.S. Vision, Renault Sport’s lighting system
Already a feature of New Clio R.S., Renault’s multi-reflector R.S. Vision LED lighting system was a natural choice for New Renault Mégane R.S. Taking the form of a chequered flag – another nod to the world of motor racing – it is incorporated in the front bumper and frames the F1-style blade. This patented technology, which is exclusive to Renault Sport, delivers high-performance lighting and includes the fog lights, cornering lights and dipped and main beam head lights. R.S. Vision stands out as an unprecedented lighting package in New Renault Mégane R.S.’s segment to ensure a level of visibility worthy of the car’s high-performance pedigree.
Meanwhile, for the first time on Mégane R.S., Renault’s trademark C-Shaped lighting signature incorporates the vehicle’s direction indicators.
A personalised experience courtesy of MULTI-SENSE
Renault’s MULTI-SENSE system and its choice of five driving modes personalise the driving experience by adapting engine response (via the pedal mapping), the firmness of the steering and gear shift speeds .
- Comfort mode: helps to minimise fuel consumption during everyday use.
- Normal mode: the ideal compromise between comfort, acoustics and performance.
- Sport mode: sportier performance, enhanced engine response, a more satisfying engine sound and firmer steering,
while the ESC threshold has been raised.
- Race Mode: designed for track use and unfettered performance thanks to sportier 4CONTROL settings for enhanced
agility, with the ESC turned off.
- Perso mode: New Renault Mégane R.S.’s technologies can be activated or switched off at will to enjoy a truly
personalised drive.
The R.S. Drive button provides shortcut access to the Sport and Race modes thanks to a short or long press respectively.
Driver aids designed for everyday use
Now a five-door hatchback, New Renault Mégane R.S. is even more suited to everyday use, while losing nothing of its dynamic, sporty character.
A suite of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) allows it to be driven in all types of situation.
Its palette of driving aids – all accessed and activated or deactivated via the R-LINK 2 tablet – provide the following functions:
- Reassure: Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Active Emergency Braking System (AEBS),
- Alert: Lane Departure Warning (LDW); Safe Distance Warning (SDW); Traffic Sign Recognition with Over Speed
Prevention (TSR with OSP) and Blind Spot Warning (BSW),
- Assist: Reversing camera; front, rear and side parking sensors; and Easy Park Assist (hands-free parking).
New Renault Mégane R.S. comes with Renault’s high-end R-LINK 2 multimedia system complete with a large 8.7-inch (22cm) TFT display.

Ah, Jaune Sirius keert gewoon weer terug. Opvallend wel dat blauw geheel ontbreekt. Het was de introductiekleur van de Mégane IV (GT), en de III RS had ook wel een metallic blauw als mogelijkheid toch?

Voor de liefhebbers: er staat inmiddels een configurator op http://nl.renault.be. Als je kiest voor de normale uitvoering dan kunt je daar ook kiezen voor de RS ![:grin:](./images/smilies/grin.gif)

Een deel van de Engelse en Franse pers heeft al gereden met de Mégane IV RS, vandaag rijdt de Nederlandse pers met de RS. Vanaf morgen is het embargo van de testen van alle genodigden dus dan kunnen we de nodige rijtesten verwachten ![;-)](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
