TC Euro Cars Sdn Bhd, (TCEC) recently launched  new additions to the local Renault line up, the New Renault Koleos and the Renault Clio RS “Ange & Demon”.

The new Renault Koleos is an evolution of Renault’s original cross-over launched in 2010. It reasserts the dynamic personality of the original thanks to an elegant and more expressive frontend styling treatment. The new looks are backed up by a carefully finished interior that delivers the expected package of refined interior appointments that allow the occupants to travel in style and comfort.

Under the new sheet metal, the new Renault Koleos is equipped with  a 170hp 2.5-litre petrol engine , drive is delivered via a 6-speed CVT gearbox. The combination delivers dynamic and versatile performance both on and off-road while maintaining impressive refinement and a fuel consumption figure of 9.5L/km.

The ‘go-anywhere’ ability of the new Renault Koleos is mated to a roomy interior that delivers segment-topping cabin space and comfort for a D-segment cross-over.  With such a strong suite of features and detailed improvements, the new Renault Koleos will appeal to Renault customers who put a premium on comfort, performance, multi-surface ability and elegant looks. For this group of customers, TCEC and Renault are proud to present its most versatile product in the range.

Of more interest to Ignition.My readers is the Renault Clio R.S. “Ange & Demon”. Previewed earlier in 2012 by the Renault Clio R.S. 200 Cup, the “Ange & Demon” is a limited edition with only 666 units being sold worldwide. Each car will come with a numbered plaque signifying the unit number in the production. Mechanically, the Renault Clio R.S. is  identical to the Clio R.S. 200 Cup,powered by a 203hp 2.0-litre normally aspirated engine with 215Nm of torque  mated to a six-speed manual gearbox.

The Cup Chassis brings stiffer dampers and lower ride height and Brembo four-pot brake calipers painted in red. Specific to the Clio R.S. “Ange & Demon” has a gloss black finish for the roof, upper tailgate, rear spoiler, rear diffuser, F1-style blade in the front bumper, door handles and door mirrors. The car is available in a matte paint finish dubbed ‘Matt Hologram Grey’ making it the only car available in Malaysia with a matte finish offered as standard. Black 17 inch Speedline alloy wheels add a finishing exterior touch.

The interior of the Clio R.S. “Ange & Demon” is also given specific equipment such as leather wrapped Recaro seats and a metal gear shift lever. The highlight of the interior is Renault Sports’ on-board telemetry system; the R.S. Monitor. Previously only available on the Renault Megane R.S. 250 Cup, the system is able to display lap times, acceleration times, a g-meter as well as realtime engine performance figures.

With a whole list of performance enhancements and performance figures of 0-100km/h in 6.9 seconds as well as a top speed of 225km/h, the Renault Clio R.S. “Ange & Demon” is truly Renault’s ultimate expression of the B-segment hot hatchback.
