More details have emerged of the next generation Renault Megane RS. The company has confirmed it will be available with its 4Control four-wheel steering, making Renault the first to offer the technology in the hot hatch segment. The company says its system offers drivers enhanced agility, cornering performance and steering precision by enabling the car’s rear wheels to assist in steering by means of an electromagnetic actuator mounted on the rear axle. Renault Sport’s engineers have calibrated the system to take the car’s performance to new limits thanks to exceptional agility and cornering stability at higher speeds.

Renault has also announced that potential owners will be able to choose between a Sport chassis, which combines high performance and ride comfort in everyday use, or a Cup chassis engineered to deliver the ultimate track performance experience. – BD Motor News
