The Renault Megane is spawning yet another special edition, one that is sure to please upstart rally drivers all over the world. The new off-spring Megane, which is being called the RS N4, is a Group N tarmac rally package that is being released to cater to the needs of trainers and private rally aces alike. For this particular car, Renault outfitted it with a boost in the output of the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine that it comes in. From the standard version’s 250 horsepower and 340 Nm of torque output, Renault gave the RS N4 a 20-horsepower boost to 270 ponies with 470 Nm of torque on it. In addition to the engine upgrade, the sports hatch also gets a “Cup” suspension upgrade courtesy of the partnership Renault established with suspension maven Ohlins from Sweden. Renault also installed bigger brake discs on the car in the form of 335mm discs and four-piston Brembo calipers on the front and 290mm versions over in the rear. Rounding out the RS N4’s performance package is a new interior that features a race-ready roll bar as well as Sabelt racing seats with a six-point harness. All told, the Megane RS N4 looks to be a pretty good car to get your feet wet in the world rally racing. .
21 comments: Renault Megane RS N4 I don’t think that its 270 horsepower is just enough for this race car, I think they should upgrade more so that it can be performed well. Anyway, I love the aesthetic design of this one.
 Honestly, I don’t know the reputation of Renault when it comes to racing cars competition. I hope to read some more about the specs and engine performance of the car.
 Same here BenBoston! I think it looks so awesome. But at first it gives me an idea that this one would a police car just like the police interceptor
 I think I had my jaw drop over this one. The new Megane coupe is fantastic. I think they need to start sending cars on US.
 He only needs to barely see out the windshield to know what turns to call, so there’s no real reason for him to be any higher.
 The seat of the co-driver is purposely lowered to keep the CG low, so that’s why it looks like he’s so much shorter than the driver.
