Renault Megane RS 265 heading to Australia

The Australian representative of the French car company Renault is really pampering its customers and has prepared for them a limited edition of the Megane RS model with the nickname 265. This number will not be completely unknown to many, we could hear about this edition for the first time at the beginning of this year, but only now is it actually arriving for sale. Specifically at the end of this month. And what does version 265 bring?

So, above all, a two-liter turbocharged four-cylinder connected to a six-speed manual transmission, which sends 197 kW (265 hp) and 360 Nm of torque to the front wheels. So it is already clear where the name comes from. Let's move on.

The Megane is really excellently equipped in terms of technology and design. In addition to the powerful power unit, there is also a modified chassis with a limited-slip differential, 18-inch alloy wheels, a rear diffuser and side sill extensions. A keen eye will also notice the modified front part of the car, led by LED diodes designed for daytime running lights. And how much does this attractive hot-hatch even cost? The opponents will have to take out 42,640 Australian dollars from their wallets for the basic version, which translates to roughly 890 thousand crowns.
