The 2016 Geneva Motor Show seen Renault present the
new Renault Megane Sport Tourer and the new Megane Sport Tourer GT, just two
months after the launch of the model's hatchback, GT and GT Line versions.
The dynamic, elegant new Renault Megane Sport Tourer
combines an intuitive, modular interior, including a choice of boot
arrangements, with the segment's longest maximum load length. The new Megane
Sport Tourer GT features a large carrying capacity, 4CONTROL technology with
four-wheel steering and Renault Sport signature styling.
A dynamic, elegant design
The design of the new Renault Megane Sport Tourer
blends dynamism with elegance. The lowest vehicle in its class, it also has the
widest track to increase its feeling of solidity on the road.
The car projects a feeling of the very highest
quality, notably in terms of fit and finish as well as the chrome trim that
runs from the car's waistline up to the rear quarter panel on all models.
Integrated, matt-finish anodised aluminium roof bars will be standard from the
second equipment level upwards.
The new Renault Megane Sport Tourer features a
distinctive lighting signature. At the front, C-shaped headlights can be
equipped (according to equipment level) with LED PURE VISION technology. At the
rear, Edge Light technology creates an elegant 3D effect.
A carefully designed, ergonomic cabin
The new Renault Megane Sport Tourer has a fresh cabin
ambiance, tailored to the driver. Compared with the previous model, the driving
position has been improved ergonomically. All the high-tech features (colour
head-up display, dashboard with colour-adjustable seven-inch TFT data screen,
R-Link 2 8.7-inch portrait-format multimedia tablet) are designed to facilitate
everyday use. Controls are positioned in an L configuration, within easy reach
of the driver.
Careful finishing touches, fine chrome detailing and
high-quality materials further enhance traveling comfort.
On the outside, the front bumper has been designed to
underline the car's sporting credentials and Renault Sport pedigree, while the
honeycomb mesh of the upper and lower radiator grilles is specific to this
model. The wide lower air inlet is flanked by two scoops. Renault
Sport-designed GT-badged 18-inchdiamond-cut wheels are available as an option.
At the rear, the new Megane Sport Tourer GT is fitted with a chromed exhaust
tailpipe, on the nearside, along with a sculpted diffuser to reinforce the
car's dynamic stance. The new Renault Megane Sport Tourer GT has Renault Sport
signatures to the left of the tailgate and on both front wings.
Inside, you'll discover the full Renault Sport
experience. The bucket seats, with integral headrests, blue stitching and a
chequered sport logo, are very comfortable and provide excellent lateral
support. There are three upholstery options: fabric, and Alcantara® with either
blue or black stripes. The new Megane Sport Tourer GT's identity is further
emphasised by blue flourishes within the instrument binnacle, plus blue trim
strips and seat stitching that complement the Iron Blue bodywork. The
innovative sports steering wheel, in perforated full-grain leather, has optimised
ergonomics, while the aluminium pedals and bespoke gear lever are designed to
suit sporting drivers - as are the steering wheel gearshift paddles.
An easy-to-use modular boot
The new Renault Megane Sport Tourer has 521dm3 VDA of
luggage space (equivalent to 580 litres, the same as its forebear).
The modular boot is extremely straightforward to use.
The boot floor has two positions. Selecting the high position creates a flat
floor when the rear seat is folded to facilitate the loading of bulky items. In
this configuration, further storage space of 50dm3 VDA is available beneath the
floor. Alternatively, setting the floor in its lower position creates maximum
load volume in a single area.
The new Megane Sport Tourer has lateral storage bins
on each side of the boot, next to the wheel arches. In addition, there is a
hook on both sides from which bags can be hung. Such carefully considered
details make everyday life simpler. As an option, a luggage safety net that can
be used vertically is available.
It is also possible to separate the boot into two
compartments, front and rear, to prevent items from sliding around.
The soft luggage cover can easily be rolled up to
facilitate loading. Beneath the floor, it has a dedicated storage area that
does not detract from carrying capacity.
The longest load area in its segment, at almost 2.8m
Thanks to handles located within the boot area,
Renault's Easy Folding system enables simple unlocking and automatic folding of
the 60/40-split rear seat. In addition, the front passenger seat folds flat to
accommodate items up to 2.77m in length, a figure no segment rival can match.
The highest standards of cabin space and comfort
The Renault Megane Sport Tourer was designed with
consideration for rear passengers and a revised seating position provides
greater comfort. The available legroom is among the best in the segment (at
216mm) and the rear seat back has slightly more rake than that of the Megane 3
Sport Tourer (27° rather than 25°), providing passengers with a better posture and
consequently greater comfort.
High standards of equipment echo the new Megane
hatchback
The new Renault Megane Sport Tourer benefits from CMF
(Common Module Family) C/D platform and thus has numerous features inherited
from the new Espace and Talisman that are usually found only in higher
segments. As a result, the Megane Sport Tourer is equipped with a range of
technologies unique to its market sector:
·
A
personalisable, connected control centre: the R-LINK 2 multimedia tablet is
available in two formats, 7-inch landscape or 8.7-inch portrait
·
Driving
enjoyment: GT versions are fitted with 4CONTROL
·
Individuality:
the dashboard features a configurable colour seven-inch TFT data screen, plus
MULTI- SENSE technology
·
Safety:
colour head-up display, driver aids
4CONTROL for the new Megane Sport Tourer GT
The new Megane Sport Tourer GT is the first C-segment
Sport Tourer to benefit from 4CONTROL technology. A Renault innovation, the
4CONTROL chassis permits a degree of rear-wheel steering.
Specifically tailored to the new Renault Megane Sport
Tourer GT by Renault Sport's engineers, 4CONTROL adds dynamism and precision on
twisty roads. Driving is more accurate, more reassuring and genuinely enjoyable
in all circumstances. In the event of an emergency situation, the four steered
wheels provide extra peace of mind thanks to their instant response.
The system combines high-speed stability with
low-speed manoeuvrability and, for a Sport Tourer, the new Megane Sport Tourer
GT is remarkably agile in built-up areas. To guarantee optimal stability,
4CONTROL monitors and adjusts the rear steering angle 100 times every second.
A comprehensive choice of engines, from 90 to 205hp,
including hybrid assist
Engine options are the same as those available for the
new Megane.

4CONTROL & MULTI-SENSE take personalised driving
enjoyment to a new level
Renault is the first volume manufacturer to combine
personalisable driving enjoyment with four-wheel steering technology.
The MULTI-SENSE system coordinates the different
parameters that contribute to driving pleasure and travelling comfort in order
to match the driver's/passengers' mood of the moment. Combined with Renault's
4CONTROL technology, it ensures peerless low-speed manoeuvrability and
impeccable handling at higher speeds.
Hybrid assist power for fuel consumption amongst the
segment's lowest
The imminent launch in 2016 of an electrified Hybrid
Assist diesel powertrain sees Renault target the C-segment's lowest fuel consumption
by recovering otherwise wasted energy under deceleration or braking. This
technology dispenses with the need for a high-voltage battery, a consideration
that fits perfectly with Renault's philosophy of delivering technology to the
widest possible audience at the lowest possible price.
R-link 2: the big-format, connected control centre
More than simply embellishing the interior design of
Renault models, R-LINK 2 plays a fundamental role in the driving experience and
the travelling comfort occupants enjoy by controlling key functions such as the
multimedia, navigation, audio, hands-free telephone and MULTI-SENSE systems, as
well as the different driving aids, the 4CONTROL chassis, etc.
The 7-inch landscape- or 8.7-inch portrait-format
display is particularly clear and carefully designed for in-car use. It is
capable of storing up to six different driver profiles which means that
preferred comfort- and driving- related settings are just a click away.
Meanwhile, through its R-LINK Store, Renault proposes
an extensive catalogue of applications developed specifically for automotive
use.
