What’s the deal with that huge exhaust pipe?
Renault has a lot of activity these days. The brand is testing several refreshed models in preparation for their launch later this year and 2022. Recently, a lot of new cars were released, including the second-generation Zoe and the India-only Triber and the facelifted Koleos. We are sharing another set of spy photos today with the facelifted Megane Hatchback, which is one of the most beloved models on the E.
Our photographers sent us photos earlier this week with the caption Megane hybrid This one appears to be the regular ICE-powered version. The camouflage is still visible at the front and rear. It continues to be an odd exhaust pipe The rear bumper has an integrated exhaust gas filtration system. We believe there is an additional exhaust gas filter system underneath that is being tested.
This prototype is essentially boring. Although the revised fascia is hidden under the camo foil, we expect Megane will get a more prominent grille as well as redesigned headlights. There are some small tweaks to the bumper and new graphics for the taillight clusters.
Zooming in on some photos like we did will reveal that the dashboard in the cabin is still hidden. We don’t anticipate any major changes in the layout, but Renault may offer its competitor in Europe’s compact car market new trim options as well as an updated version the infotainment system.
With 31,260 deliveries in the first quarter, the Megane was the seventh-best-selling model of its class. We expect the refreshed hatchback to debut this fall at the Frankfurt Motor Show. The year ends with sales.
