Renault Mégane Coupé-Cabriolet takes its Top Off for Summer

SYDNEY – Feb 13, 2012: To celebrate the blistering Australian summer, Renault is releasing the special edition Mégane Coupé-Cabriolet Summer Edition.

For a limited time, the striking Mégane Coupé-Cabriolet will now come standard with charcoal leather seats and 18-inch alloy wheels. The Mégane Coupé-Cabriolet Summer Edition retains the highly competitive recommended retail price (RPP) of $45,990.

Typically charcoal leather seats are available as an option at $1,800. The 18-inch wheels have not previously been available in Australia and are valued at $1,500. As such the stunning Mégane Coupé-Cabriolet Summer Edition represents $3,300 additional value to customers.

The Mégane Coupé-Cabriolet Summer Edition is the perfect vehicle in which to enjoy the tempestuous Australian summer. It has a striking, full glass roof for rainy days which can fold away in just 22 seconds to enjoy the sunshine.

Boasting a long line-up of standard features, including satellite navigation, hands-free entry, rear parking sensors and Bluetooth with audio streaming, the Mégane Coupé-Cabriolet Summer Edition is the ideal balance of comfort and value.

Following the launch of the new Mégane Coupé-Cabriolet in late 2010, Renault has seen an 84% increase in sales from 2010 to 2011. The Mégane range leads the way for Renault Australia, representing 41% of total sales in 2011.

According to Justin Hocevar, Managing Director of Renault Australia: “The Mégane Coupé-Cabriolet Summer Edition is a welcome addition to our ever popular Mégane range. We have introduced the Summer Edition in response to the options our customers were selecting when purchasing this vehicle.

“The Mégane Coupé-Cabriolet Summer Edition represents exceptional value combining safety, style and convenience. We are continuing our strategy of creating exceptional value for our customers, which was so successful for us in 2011.

“We anticipate a high demand for our Summer Edition so I would encourage customers to visit their local dealership without delay.”

As with all Renault passenger cars, the Mégane Coupé-Cabriolet Summer Edition comes with a 5 year/unlimited kilometre warranty and 5 years’ roadside assistance.
