"If you are lucky enough to be familiar with the Megane RS line of hot hatches you know they just keep getting better. Among its brethren, they have been known for plenty of front-wheel-drive powered fun, and the chassis and suspension stability to put that power to good use. Among the competition, many Europeans (Renault cars are not sold in the U.S.) would argue the Megane R.S. is the best when compared to cars like the Honda Civic Type-R or Ford Focus RS. Whether you agree or not, it’s undoubtedly in the same class as these heraldic hot hatches. That alone should make it worth a drive."—Official description[1]
The 2018 Renault Megane R.S. - abbreviated as "Megane R.S. '18" - is a front-wheel drive super hot hatch by Renault.
It appears in Forza Horizon 4 since Update 17 and in all subsequent main series titles.
Synopsis[]
The 2018 Megane R.S. replaces the 2010 Renault Megane R.S. 250, and is part of the fourth generation Renault Megane that has been in production since 2016.
Engine and drivetrain[]
The front-mounted 1.8 liter turbocharged engine codenamed "M5P" is shared with the Alpine A110, but is featured with higher performance figures that are 275 hp (205 kW) and 287 ft·lb (389 N·m) of torque. The Forza model features the seven-speed "EDC" dual-clutch gearbox option.[2]
Platform[]
Weighing 3153 lb (1430 kg), the Megane R.S. weighs 95 lb (43 kg) more than the 2010 Megane R.S. 250, but does not stand out compared to other FWD Super Hot Hatches in that regard.
