A CHOICE OF TWO CHASSIS - OPTIMAL HANDLING IN ALL SITUATIONS

This layout totally separates the suspension and steering functions to ensure an exceptionally high standards of handling and traction.

In response to customer demand, New Mégane Renaultsport 250 is available from launch with a choice of two chassis settings:
