Paris, January 23, 2019 – To celebrate the launch of New TWINGO, Renault is teaming up with the French sports brand to create an exclusive limited series. With its ravishing look and extensive equipment, New Renault TWINGO “le coq sportif” is donning French colors!

A CHIC, SPORTY LOOK

Playing on the theme of French colors (blue, white and red), New Renault TWINGO “le coq sportif” features specific design details for a unique look. Asymmetrical side cabin strips: with French colors on the left side, its tri-color stripes evolve to reveal the le coq sportif logo on the right side. The door mirrors are red. The white models offer a more radical look with a large tricolor lateral strip on the left side, featuring a wide blue stripe and a narrower red one, separated by the white color that runs along the side of the body and extends to the roof of the car. Blue for the grille and red for the rear bumper, the decorative strips accentuate the asymmetrical effect and complement the distinctive le coq sportif badge featured in the protective side door moldings. Inside the car, customers will be immersed in the le coq sportif universe through specific color and material elements: the door sills, floor mats, dashboard and gearstick bellows have also been given a singular design. An exclusive brushed aluminum plate marked “Twingo by le coq sportif” is featured at the base of the gearstick.

EQUIPPED FOR THE CITY

Based on its superior trim level, New Renault TWINGO “le coq sportif” is fully equipped with high-end features including the new Renault EASY LINK 7’’ multimedia system integrating Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, automatic air conditioning, a reversing camera with rear park assist, rain and luminosity sensors, etc. New Renault TWINGO remains an unequaled partner for urban adventures, thanks to its rear-mounted engine and its record tight turning circle; never before has a car been so much fun to drive. Agile and efficient, it easily weaves its way through the city. This limited series is available with the SCe 75 and TCe 95 engines, and the choice of a manual or a dual-clutch EDC automatic transmission for the TCe 95.
