Renault have announced pricing and spec details for two new additions to the Twingo line up.
The Renault Twingo GT and Dynamique S models go on sale at the start of next month priced from £13,755 and £12,205 respectively.
The Renault Sport-developed Twingo GT’s rear-engined, rear-wheel-drive, layout aids manoeuvrability with the front wheel turning arc no longer restricted by the engine, making the car ideal for city motoring. Inspired by Renault’s Twin’Run concept car showcased at the 2013 Monaco Grand Prix, the eye-catching Twingo GT comes with a range of colour, trim, and personalisation options. The five-door Twingo GT sits on 17-inch Twin Air diamond-cut alloy wheels, and boasts a lateral air intake, rear bumper diffuser, twin exhaust pipe, and Renault Sport markings on the side and rear of the car. Its 898cc TCe engine has been tuned by Renault Sport engineers to produce 110bhp. A modified turbocharger is fed by a new air intake on the rear left-hand wing, which reduces the temperature of air entering the turbocharger by 12 per cent, and helps increase the flow rate of combustive air by 23 per cent, as a result the GT covers 0-62mph in 9.6 seconds. A five-speed manual gearbox with new ratios, re-mapped accelerator, and recalibrated Electronic Stability Control system also help maximise the Twingo GT’s sporty performance. Other equipment includes the R&GO app which turns a smart phone into a touchscreen including sat-nav via an in-app purchase, ABS, Emergency Brake Assist, Hill Start Assist, speed limiter, cruise control, automatic climate control, automatic lights and front wipers, fog lights with cornering function, rear parking sensors, tinted rear windows, side skirts, extended wheel arches and rear diffuser. A new i d Blaze Orange metallic paint colour has been added, with the additional choice of Crystal White, Lunar Grey or Diamond Black body colours, all with the option of contrasting NACA aircraft-inspired stripes. The colour scheme of the part-leather interior echoes the exterior paintwork. Further individualisation options include GT roof and bonnet decals, an electric panoramic fabric folding sunroof, lane departure warning system, heated front seats and the Techno Pack with R-Link multimedia system that incorporates 7-inch touchscreen, TomTom LIVE navigation, USB and Bluetooth connectivity, voice control and reverse parking camera and sensors.
Meanwhile, the new Twingo Dynamique S adds a raft of exterior and interior enhancements compared to the outgoing model. Also available with new Renault i.d Blaze Orange metallic paint as well as Lunar Grey, Diamond Black or Crystal White body colours, the Dynamique S also comes with the same contrasting Sport exterior touch pack as on the GT. A Sport decal and 16-inch Sport diamond-cut alloys complete the stylish exterior, while inside the Dynamique S are such features as aluminium pedals, Sport part-leather upholstery, grey interior touch pack, Sport gear lever knob and orange interior personalisation. Dynamique S customers can also specify the GT’s body kit, extra tinted rear windows, automatic lights and front wipers, fog lights with cornering function and rear parking sensors amongst the available options.
