2017 Renault Twingo GT Commercial Trailer

This new Twingo GT is one of the least powerful cars ever to wear the Renault Sport badge on its bootlid, but with 109bhp and just 1,000kg to battle against, it does serve up sprightly performance. It’ll sprint to 62mph in 9.6 seconds and run on to 113mph.

Renault Sport has been to work on the Twingo’s chassis, too, fitting 40 per cent stiffer springs and dampers, lowering the ride height by 20mm and increasing the thickness of the front anti-roll bar. The engineers have also slackened off the electronic stability control by a degree – although it still can’t be switched off – in an effort to make the Twingo GT more fun to drive than the standard models.
