That said, the Megane RS Ultime is created as the ultimate and last Megane of its kind!
Megane RS Ultime replaced the Megane RS and Megane RS Trophy. However, the good news is that performance is at an all-time high despite being the last model to feature the Renault Sport logo. After all, from now on it is Alpine who will start writing the new chapters to come.

Central exhaust system,

Therefore, all these ensure high-speed performance and steering precision. All of which are next-level performance features that make the Ultime Edition Megane RS ideal for those looking for the ultimate exhilarating and challenging Megane driving experience.
Megane RS Ultime – Only 500 units!
Renault plans to produce just 500 units of this special edition, making it even rarer and more desirable for collectors and car enthusiasts. This also adds to the exclusivity of this model, as only a few people will have access to this next-level performance.
Second Laurent Hurgon:
“The Megane RS represents 15 years of my work at Renault Sport. Since the Megane II stage 2, we have constantly improved its dynamic performance so that we remain the leader among front-wheel drive sports cars. Records such as the Nordschleife at the Nürburgring are unforgettable challenges, full of passion, adrenaline and emotion. And now, the Megane RS Ultime. I am particularly proud to sign the version that crowns this wonderful saga.”
Car for every day?
Well, taking into account the limitation of 500 units, the new RS Ultime is not at all a car to go from home to work or shopping. However, Renault Sport has thought of everything and equipped this model with Strict technology:
9.3 inch navigation screen,
Bose Hi-Fi Audio System,
10-inch digital instrument panel,
RS Monitor onboard telemetry system
Adaptive Cruise Control
360º maneuver assistant
And allied to all this, there are many more extras at your disposal!
But now let’s get to what matters, the numbers!
The Megane RS Ultime equips the motor turbo of 4 cylinders able to 300 cv of power and 420 nm of torque. To transfer all this power to the ground, this version has the EDC gearbox and a mechanical Torsen differential.
From paper to numbers this guarantees acceleration from 0-100 km/h in just 5.7 seconds!
Are there faster hatchbacks from 0 to 100 km/h?
Of course, but keep in mind that we only have front-wheel drive here. However, keep in mind that the Megane RS maintains its track records due to dedication and attention to detail, far beyond the power of the engine.
See some of the angles of this asphalt monster!
In short, Renault is celebrating the success of the Megane RS with the creation of the limited edition Ultime. With performance characteristics far above the ordinary and with exclusive aesthetic details.
Therefore, this special edition promises to offer next-level performance and an exciting driving experience for fans of the brand with only 500 units available. So this limited edition will also be a great opportunity for collectors to add a rare and iconic car to their collection.
