2008 RENAULT Megane Coupe 1.2L TCe 6MT FWD (115 HP)

Vehicle Overview

The launch of the Renault Megane Coupe took place in September 2008 at the Paris Motor Show. Renault made a big step forward and designed a coupe that turned heads with its stylish, catchy look.

The interior of the Megane Coupe was ergonomic and very well thought out with softer materials used for the dashboard.

The driving position was very comfortable and the front seats were easily adjustable, as well as the steering wheel.

The load area in the Coupe was fairly sized and could be extended by folding the back seats flat in case users wanted to carry larger objects.

The rear seats offered limited knee-room, so the Coupe was not the most appropriate car to carry adults in the back.

The Coupe came with a standard sat-nav system and users could opt for an assisted parking brake.

Safety wise, the Megane had no less than 8 airbags and even scored 5 stars at the Euro NCAP.

The new steering system along with the stiffer suspension offered great driving in turns with no body roll and good grip.

One of the downsides that was noticed during the Coupe’s production was the soundproofing issue that arose at higher speeds. And that was a pity, because the Coupe was a really good looking car that drove unexpectedly well.

On the other hand, the Coupe had a very good price and lots of nice features.
