Test driving a future that is not too distant

This Renault could easily find its way into all our driveways. Get this: the entire car is 95% recyclable, 11% of its plastics are recycled and it will consume an average of only 4.6L per 100 km in its lifetime. Combining existing technologies such as direct-injection, a diesel particulate filter and advanced technology glow-plugs, the Mégane emits a lowly 120 g of CO2 per km.

Once again, diesel technology shows that it can do almost everything. The turbocharged 1.5L puts out 110 hp, more than enough to get up to speed in a safe manner. The Mégane has a comfortable roomy cabin and a pleasant ride that is sure to please.
