It seems that Renault has finally decided to make a real sports car, as the car manufacturer Renault’s division into a stand-alone brand wants with its own models.

The news comes on Renault’s product manager Beatrice Foucher, who said. “We will continue to take on derivative versions of the Megane, such as work, because this is a great car and good for us, but we are also special models for Renault We. In attack, we think of the small volumes, in which it a good business model. ”

No official decision has been made, but Foucher said that they support “two or three unique models outside its breathed Hatchbacks. The first will see a roadster version of the Dezire that a limited edition and will not be cheap. ” Costs of about € 30k was suggested, but that will not scare anyone if it looks good and looks like the concept.

If you are asked if the Roadster EV, Foucher said: “My dream is that we sell to be able EV sports car.” But this is unlikely, because the lithium-ion batteries can be too expensive for production.

2.0-liter engine of the Clio RS atmospheric looks like a better fit for a rear wheel drive, mid-engine sports car, the linear power delivery needs. By the middle of the production cycle of the chassis, we could also see a diesel powerd version.

As the spider 15 years ago, this will most likely be made in the production of roadster in Dieppe Renault Sport facility, as the plant has spare capacity due to the fact that the hot Megane is made in Spain.
