PARIS, PRANCE – July 10, 2009: Seven months after its launch, the New Mégane Hatchback line-up has been extended to include a first, extensively-equipped limited edition. Based on the Expression equipment level, it comes with the new, integrated Carminat TomTom navigation system and handsfree ignition, as well as 16-inch alloy wheels and a dark, chic interior trim as standard.

This limited edition version will be available across Renault's French network from September 2009. Order books will nonetheless be open from July 15, with prices ranging from €20,550 (1.6 16V 110 bioethanol E85) to €24,350 (dCi 130 FAP). The TomTom Edition limited edition takes the number of equipment levels in the New Mégane Hatchback line-up to six, namely Authentique, Expression, Carminat TomTom, TomTom Edition, Dynamique and Privilège. It is based on the Expression equipment level, which has been upgraded to include the following standard equipment:

  • integrated Carminat TomTom navigation,
  • hands-free ignition and automatic locking as the holder of the hands-free card walks away from the car,
  • 16-inch alloy wheels,
  • a specific, dark-hued interior trim.

    The cabin features chic, dark trimming based on dark cloth upholstery, a dark charcoal and grey dashboard and gloss black trimming strips and air-vents. The steeringwheel, gearlever knob and parking brake handle are all trimmed in leather.

    Exterior styling details include satin-finish door handles and 16-inch alloy wheels. Six metallic finishes are available for New Mégane Hatchback TomTom Edition, namely Ecume Blue, Eclipse Grey, Cassiopée Grey, Platine Grey, Cendré Beige and Pearlescent Black (nonmetallic Glacier White can be ordered at no extra charge).

    This limited edition version, which will be marketed for a year, represents a total saving to the customer of €690.
