Unveiled to the public in 1993, the Renault Twingo was a small and economical city car.
Later on, in 2007, Renault dared to go for a hot hatch, the Twingo RS, developed by the company’s performance division, Renault Sport.

It was in 2011 when the phase 2 Renault Twingo underwent a very aggressive restyling with the work of Laurens van den Acker. The fresh look was evocative of Formula 1: at the rear, the new RS featured a spoiler on the tailgate and prominent wheel arches, as well as a specific diffuser. New bespoke 16-inch alloys equipped the new RS.

The interior was available with a choice of fresh colors and materials.

Using the same 1.6-liter engine, the small French sportswoman hid 133 ponies under the hood and liked to be taken between 4000 and 7000 rpm.

With the reworked acoustics, the sound was flattering inside the small Twingo.

Even if in the 0-100 sprint the RS was not the fastest, it was a real pleasure to drive it on twisty roads, as corners she loved the most.

The dynamic behaviour was exceptional, and with the CUP chassis it was even better. The CUP chassis lowered the body by 10mm, added aluminum suspension arms and a thicker anti-roll bar.
