Renault Megane Engines and Transmissions

Renault Megane engine and transmission choices include several Cabrio examples: the gasoline 1.2 MT gives you manual gear control, while the diesel 1.5 EDC uses an automated dual-clutch transmission. The gasoline 2.0 CVT varies its ratio continuously, so acceleration feels different from conventional gear changes. These examples all use front-wheel drive and represent only part of the generation’s powertrain range.
