Motoring - Renault Megane Sport / Clio Sport (1088 words)
Renault is moving aggressively to reclaim a share of its sporting heritage in the local market with the simultaneous introduction of beefed up versions of the Megane and Clio hatchbacks - both of which come with an advanced driving course as part of the purchase price.
Sport driving requires a suspension to match and the Megane's lowered look with big 18-inch wheels on 225/40 low profile tyres gives the car a muscled stance, with the true 'sporting' giveaway the twin central exhausts protruding from the matt fl grille of the rear diffuser.
Renault Sport's engineers have developed a new front suspension system with an independent steering axis that alleviates the torque steer and self-centring tendency common to powerful front-driven cars by separating the steering axis from the damper unit, in contrast to a standard MacPherson type arrangement.
