Very nice. Would be the perfect package for me. That great engine from the 300 trophy with the softer suspension from the regular RS. 👍

[@georgetudor1767]

I waited quite a long time to see a review with the RS facelift ! Thumbs up, looks amazing !!

[@DrivingCars]

Just a short drive. :) But... Facelift is more stable than the previous one. 4Control is much smoother. For me it's one of the best hot-hatches on the market: sounds great, drives and brakes really good and looks good as well.

[@georgetudor1767]

@@DrivingCars oh ..nice..I thought they just modified the head lamps and upgrated the navigation system and climatic looks. Thats nice to hear about the other updates they did!

@@DrivingCars no chasis cup, so no lim slip diff.... big step back from 280... 20hp more... not worth vs the lose of the differencial

[@DrivingCars]

@@albertoalonso4202 This features are in Trophy, and Trophy still have them. It's the same thing like in the prefacelifted models.

Mine arrives in about six weeks. I ordered it in manual with the Orange Tonic paint. My excitement is unbelievable

I think, you will like it

[@marieetoile3283]

That's the perfect car for these road 👌

[@timb8095]

Can you customise the dash in Race mode? I’d much prefer a round rev counter than those bars.

[@LordOfChaos.x]

Is the suspension rigid? Is it softer than the throphy version?

[@AaronDelgado90]

Definitely getting one this year, test drove the cup and it's an incredible car! I'll be waiting for the new 2021 RS300 trophy. Love to see this go against the new supra on a track

[@fabienpiquet_BeFa]

It's the new model 😉, new logo, new dashboard, new Rlink, news rear light

[@Fielion]

finally :) the dashbord had been the only thing i disliked about the previous generations... now this full digital i finaly like, its not quite as cool as that of the a3 but its very ok compared to the pre 2021 megane rs! i have seen an megane rs on the autobahn today, in reality they look even better then in videos.

I have a M4RS as well, but not facelift, the inside is really good in this one. The exhaust sound seems to be the same ?

@@DrivingCars perfect thank you. I obviously know how the pre face-lift model sounds like as i have one ! Haha

[@symcio92]

Could you make a video presenting changes in the face-lift model?

[@simonmektupchiqn]

From the video it seems that the facelift mainly introduces: - a yellow R.S flag next to the R.S logo in the front, and a yellow R.S flag on the steering wheel, which previously stated "R.S" - a digital dash, similar to newer renaults (my cousin's got the new captur, which has the same digital dash, its awesome) - an updated infotainment system present in newer renaults - full LED tail-lights From renault's website it states that the regular facelift R.S model will have 296 horsepower, the same as the trophy model; unlike the pre-facelift which had 276 horsepower I'm looking to upgrade from a Clio R.S trophy to a Megane R.S trophy in the coming months, so I've been looking around for as much information as possible. Hope this helps. If I'm missing anything I hope someone can add to this thread. :)

[@DrivingCars]

tahle mi nepřijde úplně zlá, ale cestou dolů to rád moc nemám. Raději to mám nahoru a tam mám pak bobky z tý poslední pravý úplně nahoře před rovinkou, protože v ní je hup a když člověk jede rychle (93 km/h... :-D ) tak se tam to auto odlehčuje.

[@lascaossos]

cool! do you think they made changes to the manual gearbox too?

[@DrivingCars]

I don't think so, but i didn't drive it.

[@lascaossos]

@@DrivingCars y'know the car suffers alot in straight line speed do you know why? i'm not sure if its turbo lag or something to do with the tce engines

Is there the same gearbox? 6speed or they upgraded to 7speed?

[@iEnzoPL]

7speed with auto hold.

[@Speedaddict44]

@@iEnzoPL what do.you mean autohold?

[@DrivingCars]

There is 6speed automatic gearbox. And yes 'autohold' is there.

[@DrivingCars]

Autohold - automatic braking system, when you are waiting for example at traffic lights. The car brakes wheels, but your leg doesn't have to be on the brake pedal.
