A roadster is a symbol that people usually interpret as "young", "passionate", "personality", "romantic", etc. In the movie, the handsome young man roars past in a beautiful convertible sports car, attracting beautiful women to turn back, maybe this is the beginning of the encounter. The only two-person space in the convertible car obviously crowds out the existence of the family. The pursuit of speed and the safety factor are always changing, which makes the convertible sports car never become a family, or more accurately, it has never become the first choice for Chinese families to buy a car. . Even people with some spare money follow the Confucian way of low-key moderation and rarely publicize their wealth or personality. Still, people who drive a family sedan aren't necessarily without dreams about speed and freedom. People are always very contradictory.

Renault seems to be trying to find a new selling point in this contradiction with the launch of the new Mégane Coupé. Renault's family cars are well-received, and their exterior design has also won a lot of praise. The launch of this new car also continues Renault's consistent style. The new Megane Hardtop Roadster (hereinafter referred to as the new Megane CC) is elegant in appearance and full of dynamism. It is equipped with a 2.0-liter 16-valve engine and is the first model with a glass folding roof as a standard configuration. Compared with the traditional roadster, the new Megane CC provides users with more ergonomic design. The car is equipped with comfortable four-person seats, ample luggage space, rear-view mirrors with good visibility, and high-end sound insulation and climate control equipment. These designs are intended to meet the dual needs of Chinese users for coupe and convertible sports car.

Standard with folding glass top Canopy In addition to aesthetic considerations, the design of the glass canopy reflects many of the outstanding qualities of the new Megane CC. Gone is the discomfort of driving in the confined spaces of a traditional sedan, and the glass roof allows drivers and passengers to enjoy lasting contact with nature and a wider rear view. In addition, the 3.15 mm thick Venus No. 40 glass used in the car improves the car's sound insulation and temperature regulation. The new Megane CC is fitted with a defrost rear window and anti-aging canopy, thus overcoming the problems common to traditional fiber headliners.

The folding top is easier and faster to operate. Opening or closing is done automatically by electro-hydraulic without any additional switching procedures. Opening the hood is done by pressing and holding the convertible button for 22 seconds, which is the shortest operating time of any sedan on the market.

Comfort and convenience are shared in every seat. The new Megane CC is richly and elegantly equipped. Electronic door mirrors, four power windows with one-touch switches, windscreens and anti-roll bars encased in soft foam make operation even more comfortable. There is ample storage space in the car, including a 17-liter refrigerated storage box that automatically locks when the door is closed, effectively preventing the theft of its contents.

The new Megane CC has an ergonomic design with four comfortable seats and a spacious interior. The center of gravity of the front seats of the new Megane CC is lowered to allow for comfortable headroom in the convertible. The streamlined design of the front windshield provides maximum space for front passengers while reducing the high drag coefficient common in convertibles. The rear seats are designed to provide passengers with the most headroom and knee room in its class. In addition, the front seats have sliding and backrest positioning memory functions, so passengers can easily access the rear seats. The luggage space of the new Megane CC is also the most spacious in its design range, at 490 litres (VDA standard), compared to 190 litres (VDA standard) as standard in the convertible.

Long-lasting driving pleasure The new Megane CC is designed to provide the driver with the most comfortable driving position and a very reasonable field of view. Compared to other models in the Mégane series, the seat is lowered by 24mm to ensure that the occupant maintains a more active position. The absence of door pillars and the glass roof extend the driver's field of vision when driving in the city.

The design of the new Mégane CC inherits the structure and overall rigidity of the upper half of the Mégane series models, while meeting the dual demands of users for power and safety. The stability and accuracy of the variable electronic power steering, suspension travel system also really adds to the driving pleasure.

The new Mégane CC will go on sale with a 136-horsepower, 2.0-liter, 16-valve engine that also includes anti-lock brakes, emergency brake assist, and other positive features inherent in the Mégane model line. effective security measures.

SUPERB SAFETY ANYWHERE, ANYWHERE New Megane CC In the Euro NCAP new car crash test, it was awarded a five-star safety rating, making it the only model in its class to achieve such a good result. This model embodies Renault's progress in the field of passive safety. Precisely designed body stiffness coupled with a series of standard-fitted reinforced windshield pillars, body side and sill sills, and two fixed anti-roll bars ensure that the interior space is not compromised when the body rolls. Renault's third-generation protection system and six airbags (including 2 anti-sink airbags under the front seat cushions) provide optimum protection for the occupants. In addition, the new Megane CC can be fitted with two automatic anti-roll bars that activate quickly before any possible rollover is detected.

Trying to combine two or more styles and functions in the same model is not a new thing. Many models have been successful and even succeeded in creating new types of car features. Renault has a lot of successful experience in this regard. The new Megane is remarkable in terms of design, quality, safety and comfort, and the listing price during the National Day is 370,000. With good quality and reasonable price, I believe that the new Megane cc will be loved by many people.
