One minute you’re smitten with it the next, one of its irritating niggles – that fiddly entertainment system, or those cheap dashboard plastics, for example – taps you on the shoulder and reminds you it isn’t perfect.” Read review Model reviewed: 1.6-litre petrol-electric plug-in hybrid Sports Tourer E-Tech RS Line estate Score: 6 / 10 “This Renault Mégane feels like something of a flawed diamond.

But with rejuvenated style and fancy new tech, the Megane is now one of the go-to models for advanced tech and style.” Read review Model reviewed: 1.5-litre diesel manual Dynamique S Nav hatchback Score: 8 / 10 “Although extremely popular, the Renault Mégane has long been a leftfield option in the hatchback market.
