The new and extremely funky Renault Twingo goes on sale in the UK with prices starting at £10,350.
The new model retains the car’s rather simple profile, but adds a bit more drama to its looks with a cheekier front end and the new Renault design identity, which is clear through the revised bumper, tailgate and new rear lights.
The other good features it has retained is the reasonable price tag and great value for money. all New Twingos, for instance, are eligible for the Renault 4+ programme worth £900, which launches on 1st February 2012. The car launches in February with the Dynamique 1.2 16V 75 model, which as mentioned costs £10,350 OTR.
Features, specs and equipments:
In the UK, New Twingo is powered by the 1.2 16V 75 engine, boasting 55.4 mpg in the combined cycle with CO2 emissions of 119g/km resulting in nil road fund licence for the first year (£30 from year two).
On top of its high level of core equipment, Renault’s baby is available with a wide range of options. Among them are climate control, electric panoramic sunroof (with an electrically operated fabric version available from April), two Option Packs and long list of exterior customisation accessories such as Renaultsport rear spoiler, and a series of decals.
The audio system in New Twingo is also new and improved with Bluetooth functionality, together with audio streaming with USB connectivity as standard (from March). This makes it easy to play digital music and the audio system can also be used as a docking station for the latest-generation iPhone and iPod Touch®.
An iPod-compatible radio is also available as an accessory for £235. This special audio system equally enables the use of GPS navigation through an app developed by Renault, which can also analyse the driver’s eco-performance in real time. By providing tips to keep fuel consumption down, the system helps save up to 10 per cent fuel in a practical way.
