[@MrMikeJoke]

I have Megane III Rs and In my opinion, IV Rs and III Rs are both amazing cars but they are completly different cars for different consumers.

[@gallagherrides28]

My cousin has one of these and I absolutely love it. If I had one of these I would get the auto no doubt just because I love the dsg fart

[@redadjerouni1524]

Make us more of these review videos perfect👌

[@AutobahnTV]

Looks great! 😄👍 Top video 😎👌

[@MojoS16]

Wonderful car ! Congrats RS !

[@gabrieltarayre7883]

A110 test planned anytime soon? Great review :)

[@alexdb77]

No replacement for displacement.... 👍 Review!

[@tetoqx]

i love the nederlands accent and bass in the voice :D

[@lexburen5932]

Ah dat vinden wij Nederlands top om te horen :)

[@cbr1100xxPL]

I first drove the new RS280, then i drove a RS265, then i bought a RS265 and 100% think its a better car in every way

[@beanie687]

So this or the i30N performance? Not that I can afford either

[@SebLoeb09Cars]

What's the model of getrag edc gearbox is on new megane rs? Do you maybe know what's the speed of that edc when it change gears? is it fast like for example golf7R dsg gearbox?

[@frrancisco1234]

I love your videos!! How would you compare it to the 308 gti?

[@spottswood583]

I still think the Mégane 3 RS was the best with the real DNA of Renault Sport

[@Baturatus]

new renaunissan(. looks focus(.

[@Verknechter]

I had a Clio 3RS Cup and now a tuned M3RS. Had a chance to drive the M4RS. Good car and maybe very fast car around track. Also the 4 wheel steering makes it very agil and interesting to drive. The engine is only average i think. Not slow but also not fast. But like most modern cars it missed the steering and overall connection feel. Fast but artificial, especially the sound inside. Nowhere near as direct and aggressive as a M3RS or let alone a C3RS. If you are in the mood for hooning, you cant beat the older Renault Sports. If not, the new car is better.

[@ajames718]

Isn't this one with Sport chassis and no LSD? If so I would expect Megane 3 to carry more RenaultSport DNA, until the Cup releases.

[@lolman77]

Max Power : so do I. Fast, very fast I would say (but turbo engine). Very VERY good EDC gearbox (much better than usual one). Great chassis able to be comfortable and planted on the floor. 4 wheels steering is amazing especially on fast corners! Compared to M3RS, it is faster especially on track. But the connection feel is really missing. That's like that for almost all modern cars. The only modern car not giving that feeling which i could try was the new MX5 (and even here: no hydraulic steering pump, so still a bit disconnected).

[@lolman77]

A James: the Cup chassis is available already. I tried it, and it is better indeed. But I am curious to try the Trophy.

[@nosheengouri]

Wow nice look

[@sufyaanahmed5818]

How much faster is the dual clutch on this then the manual?

[@stuartpyper]

Love your reviews. I think I will keep my Mk3 265 for a lot longer rather than getting one of these.

[@97MrBlues]

Have you driven the Megane GT and if so what do you think of it?

[@eco999]

Please display specs of the car at the beginning of the review for couple of seconds. So we can see immediately what we are dealing with :) Power, Torque, Acceleration to 100km/s, Rear or All wheel drive etc.

[@asesinoherrera6364]

Great car!!

[@1fox3]

Shopping today used, would you get i30 N over Megane RS?

[@lildrxci88]

Am going to buy it

[@steveokinevo887]

You must wait for the Megane Trophy not yet available if you want a real sport megane with 300 hp

[@14energy]

Whats the edc consumption on average like?

[@sameer__akhtar__]

Nice sir

[@lildrxci88]

It's a beautiful car

[@sarkishacikian62]

I don't like the fact that EDC have 6 speed and other hothatches have 7 or 8 speed on highway the megane will be 3-4k at 140 km/h and the others 2-3k on 140km/h

[@madnoob3595]

Hope one day I'll be able to drive it >_

[@Arandaalex1911]

I30N or RS ??

[@hamzam9625]

the new design of the Renault cars is so much clean and vivid i really like it they've done a great job on this part BUT the only downside in the design is the interior touch screen it looks squary and old fashion it reminds me of an Infinix or a whatever Chinese screen not to mention the interface the menu it's like they design it in a Paint app on Windows 🤔

[@jody024]

Great car, the video itself did kind of trigger my motion sickness. That's the down side of shooting videos this way.

[@aw8824]

This car would look so fucking good white with white rims!

[@dgbservices6049]

Hi Max, as a true dynamic, driver’s car, what would you pick out of this, an i30n and a 308 GTi?

[@AutoTopnl]

Definitely 308 GTi. But this is a better allrounder

[@dgbservices6049]

AutoTopNL Interesting to know! I Appreciate your honesty by the way.

[@lolman77]

Tried all of them. i30n is far from the two french cars. Really not something I'd pick any day. 308 GTi gave me a better connection feeling to the car. Pretty fun. Better interior. M4RS is much faster on corners with the 4Control though. Sounds better too. tricky to choose.

[@shaunsimpson3499]

AutoTopNL wow really

[@ashneel]

The trophy it is then..

[@ZekeMagnum]

did you get it? I could get one on monday... trophy 300. thinking about using it as my one and only car all year around. can fit a family inside, yet drive alone on narrow roads for fun

[@bennson13]

I like the exterior but the interior is a massive let down imo.

[@TheHypnosGamer]

After 2 Years i still dont get how they did get to drive that cars - i mean at the beginning .

[@frank09busa]

Why the fuck am I seeing ad, when I'm a premium member?

[@ericb.7805]

Saludos a todos los alemanes y los de aquí ❤

[@justarandomdude9346]

Is the top speed of this car limited?

[@user-yn6bg4fb9r]

I want to buy a Megane RS because of the original exhaust, seat and braking system are good, however I would not buy it because of the stupid car key🔑

[@derbigpr500]

Renault did with this exactly what they did with the Clio 4. Clio 4 RS was sort of a "warm hatch" instead of a full hot hatch, more focused on everyday driving and comfort. The Trophy is going to be the real deal, that's gonna be the actual hot hatch. Kinda like the Golf GTI vs. GTI CS.

[@ZekeMagnum]

isn't the air outlets in the back wheel arches on both rs and rs trophy fake? there is no hole in it so just for show, now? no one brings that up...

[@davidsanderson2960]

It's not fake, has holes

[@tinoschneider6350]

Just imagine how much cooler the front would look without this teardrops under the headlights.

[@Ben_TheBillionaire]

Upshifts almost faster as Ferrari's lol

[@Ben_TheBillionaire]

I really like it as well

[@tomasrybarik5259]

big noise inside the car. Is it OK?

[@justarandomdude9346]

Totally

[@Baturatus]

need mrs3cup autobahn.

[@Dani-kg3pu]

My father haves this car

[@afonsolamy8099]

I like the Hyundai and the Ford competitor but Renault is just home to me

[@TheAverageGamer_CJ]

I would never buy a car automatic.. I love manual, plus I live in a city, not the busiest city or anything like London. But still..

[@funnyme3022]

you just drive to many powerful cars and tuned one, and then of corse renault with 1.8l engine feels slow for you...my pick would be golf r :D

[@marcelboeltjes9148]

A Golf R is way more expensive....

[@Tsukuyomi8]

The real sad thing is that you can't buy it anymore brand new

[@filipplajer5442]

wrm jak rs7

[@justarandomdude9346]

Damn French cars are awesome

[@ashneel]

an ecu reflash could solve lot of shit on this car. the engine can handle it but Renault France limited it because or their 'eco tax' or 'mallus' whatever the frogs call it

[@diab3lo]

I30N or this?

[@dg213]

daniel min this! i30N is going to be mainstream.. The Megane RS isn't.. You are a special one with that car

[@georgemavrides3434]

I would say it's up to you, both have similar performance specs. Having owned both Megane and currenly an i30, Hyundai is a more reliable car.

[@radumihai7803]

"First the torque comes in and then the power takes over" :))) do you even know what power and torque are ? I get that not every one is an engineer ( power/mechanical work for an engine is something that kids learn in 7th grade physics but never mind) , but if you dont know what you re talking about why bring it up ? jesus What you are talking about is the power and torque curve that describes power and torque as a function of RPM. The new engine reaches max power and torque at lower rpm but power and torque also drop off quicker meaning at high rpm you have weaker acceleration. This is why the car is so slow in 5th and 6th over 190 - 200km

[@nonsochenomescegliere]

*Megane RS* or *Golf GTI* ?

[@AmrHesham25]

GTI

[@bricechampagnay8147]

megare rs eat golf gti

[@MaexxHD]

GTI the RS looks so cheap maybe if you want a trackcar then the RS but for every day i would pick the GTI

[@martinmuller7634]

Ich will für Euch arbeiten! 😂 Hauptsache ich darf die Kisten fahren! 😂

[@vincemocapaldi]

Pourquoi parles tu dans tes vidéos maintenant ?

[@justarandomdude9346]

Because he has to introduce the car to us

[@constantin4958]

Will there be a manual option?

[@marco6158]

There is already a manual option, the EDC gearbox is a paid optional.

[@constantin4958]

Marco6158 Oh great, I did not know that. Thx

[@justarandomdude9346]

Yes

[@stavros_gr9105]

Great looking car, but who would choose this over the Civic Type R ?

[@dgbservices6049]

Stavros _GR someone who thinks the type R looks like an over-the-top freak show?

[@derbigpr500]

Anyone who's driven any Renault RS model in the last 15 or so years and knows they're better than Honda's.

[@streetbeefy]

anyone with eyesight......... you have seen the civic type r right? lol

[@stavros_gr9105]

Nick Combe what do u mean ? New type R is pretty sick bro

[@streetbeefy]

Stavros _GR not by cup of tea bro. Prefer vag to be honest. Think the type r looks hideous ,massively capable car though, each to their own I suppose.

[@mrmirilius]

200 bucks per watch, u mad bro

[@zizi5577]

Nurberg

[@_dan_2748]

why key is stupid lol??? This is a keyless car you dont need push the button on there, just put him in your pocket

[@aminebran8372]

Yaeh let's go

[@heisheisenberg6818]

I love his videos. One of the best car channels on YT in General. BUT....does he need to wave around those spaghetti arms and hands so much? It is so distracting. I am not blind, I can see the stuff he is talking about, why do I need those weird looking tentacles flapping around and pointing nervously towards things...I don't get this passion for embarrassment. I am desperately trying to see that gorgeous interior and the fantastic BIG touchscreen....and he keeps waving this thing in front of my gaze...WHY?

[@cbr1100xxPL]

my citroen c5 feels like a race car compared to the RS280 in comfort mode............not sure what this comfort mode means but its GARBAGE

[@norra124]

13:26

[@b1lalhu915]

23.000

[@gumpy4960]

The farting sound when upshifting sounds so shit, lots of modern hot hatches do it and it sounds awful

[@oberender64]

Every Dual clutch do it😆

[@HardcoregaminGro]

Review at Subaru WRX STI guys!!!!!!

[@leodoingthings1706]

i think they did, its slowest of them all lol

[@HardcoregaminGro]

they did but how many years ago and its not slow!

[@leodoingthings1706]

well its the same engine since 2004 ad chassis is same from 2015 so idk if it needs one. its decently quick for acceleration and in most situations faster than my e90 bmw in speeds of 0-200 but then it just dies my NA 3.0 is almsot as quick as it is when we tested in daily. situations. Guy with stock sti just couldnt run away form me with just acceleration. Also handling is very good for AWD vehicle, had to really stretch my legs on bilstein b12 set to keep up

[@HardcoregaminGro]

Same engine but not the same power(265 hp vs 300 hp)i know it is an old engine but the reason for i would bought one is Symetrical AWD from Subaru,is genial,and it looks pretty good for a 50.000 dollars car. Cheers!

[@leodoingthings1706]

cant remember ej257 having 265hp! 50k is way too expensive for STi, 35k should be a roof for it. For 50k, you can take bmw M2 in EU

[@TeckManTV]

800th like ;)

[@littlenismo]

Terrible camera angle, dizzying and couldn't make our anything.

[@dohnjoe1337]

State of that steering wheel. It's a no from me

[@fimmyk]

the interior doesn't make this car justice. hideous interior

[@ktmidol]

This is a type of car nobody will buy.

[@person2186]

type-r any day. 1.8? too small...

[@cteodorbogdan]

wtf man, you want to lose your fans? you do commercials

[@snvffxxx]

gearbox it's great car it's absolutely horrible

[@Jaydenmerenda]

The interior is so cheap looking

[@oberender64]

That's funny because nearly every German Test of the Mégane said that the Interior is like the golfs one in haptic an arrangement. 😂

[@alexdb77]

No replacement for displacement.... 👍 Review!

[@johnboy2436]

most hot hatches are 4 cylinders so what displacement are you talking about?? Did you see that and just want to say it??? Confused.
