As far as we know, the new Renault Megane family, a facelift of the model which has been with us since 2009, will debut next year. We don't even have full engine details yet, but we do know a little bit about the RS model, thanks to this video.
Yes, this is the video debut of the new Megane RS, and thanks to it we know that only cosmetic changes will be made, since the "265" name is a dead giveaway that no engine changes have been made.

The hot hatch has evolved in line with Renault's new design identity. A larger emblem is placed between a wide v-shaped piece of black plastic, mirroring the look of the Clio or Fluence.

Changes to the headlights will keep those Friday night racers happy, while the lack of F1-style winglets make for a simple and clean lower bumper, not a bad choice on Renault's part.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
