In early 1999, the French manufacturer Renault upgraded the Sedan version of Renault Megane which was first unveiled in 1996.
The Sedan edition received almost the same improvements as the base hatchback version, including a redesigned front with reshaped headlights, a grill divided into two parts in order to encircle the badge and a more modern bumper and fog beams. In terms of engines, the new Megane provides more configurations than the previous model, this time ranging between 1.4-liter and ending with 1.9d. The top engine in this series is the 1.8-liter 16V which develops 115 horsepower and a maximum speed of 123.6 mph.
