Distinctive exterior looks
The exterior styling of both Modus Tech’Run and Grand Modus
Tech’Run is particularly distinctive, and includes foglamps, body
colour lower bumper strips (versions with metallic paint) and 15-inch
aluminium alloy wheels. All the body colours featured in the Modus and
Grand Modus catalogues are available for these two limited edition
versions.
The TCe 100 engine: driving pleasure and low fuel consumption
The Tech’Run limited edition is a response to the upturn in demand
for petrol engines in the B segment. Both Modus and Grand Modus
Tech’Run are powered by the TCe 100 which has been engineered for
driving pleasure. This 1,149cc powerplant returns the fuel consumption of
an engine of its size, yet it boasts the power output of a 1.4-litre engine
(74kW) and the torque of a 1.6 (145Nm). It is equipped with a low inertia
turbocharger and was developed to stand out as its class's performance and
fuel consumption benchmark. With fuel consumption standing at just 5.9
litres/100km – equivalent to CO2 emissions of 140g/km – under
the bonnet of New Modus and Grand Modus, it is both frugal and respectful
of the environment (does not qualify for the eco-surcharge enforced in
France).
More than €1,100 of equipment included
Modus Tech’Run and Grand Modus Tech’Run include €1,160
of additional equipment. The respective prices of these two versions (in
France) are €14,500 and €15,500. Order books have been open
since September 1.
