Renault has added a new model to its local Renault Sport line-up, with a reshuffle of its Megane RS range.
In comes the new Megane RS 275 Cup Premium - replacing the outgoing 265 Cup Premium and bringing a longer list of standard equipment.
As the name suggests, the 275 Premium bumps horsepower from the 2.0 litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine from 265 to 275 HP (201kW, and 360Nm), and the new arrival scores a “raspy” (says Renault) lightweight Akrapovic exhaust system.
In keeping with true hot hatch tradition, a six-speed manual is the only transmission on offer.
Enthusiastic drivers will be pleased to find red Brembo front brake callipers, 19-inch alloy wheels and a mechanical limited-slip differential. Buyers can choose from five paint finishes on the RS 275 Cup Premium: Glacier White, Diamond Black, Titanium Grey, Pearl White and Liquid Yellow.
