New-Look Renault Twingo RS 133 Revealed

In between all the talk of 1.2 TCe 100hp engines, compact diesels with 75 horsepower and emissions that have been lowered to 85 grams of CO2 per kilometer, Renault has actually managed to sneak something really cool in the press release for the facelifted Twingo.

This little track attacker is also powered by a 1.6-liter naturally aspirated engine, like the Suzuki Swift Sport, and produces 133 horsepower. Renaultsport knows a thing or two about making fast hatches so we expect great things from this one.

But it’s the outside that has caught our attention. The new grille that came with the Twingo facelift has made for a very peculiar design. The fake F1 wing that has to be incorporated into every go-fast Renault has made the little car look like its grinning from ear to ear.

Other then that, there’s a set of 16 inch wheels painted in black and a new white interior tone to look forward to. A likable car has become even more so in our opinion.
