Limited Model Features Akrapovič Muffler



"Renault Sport (R.S.)" reflects the technology Renault has cultivated through motorsports. Among its models, the "Lutecia R.S. Trophy" has established itself as the sportiest variant of the Lutecia.

For this Lutecia R.S. Trophy, Renault Sport and Akrapovič, one of Europe's largest exhaust manufacturers, jointly developed a titanium-stainless steel composite muffler. A limited edition featuring this muffler has now been announced.

The powertrain remains the same as the base model: a 1.6-liter turbo engine paired with a 6-speed EDC (Efficient Dual Clutch). Renault Sport's tuning yields a maximum output of 162kW (220ps) and peak torque of 260Nm (26.5kgm). The limited model's composite muffler contributes to a 3kg weight reduction and an approximate 2ps increase in output at the highest rev range, all while producing the distinctive Akrapovič sound.

Available in Yellow "Jaune Sirius Metallic" or White "Blanc Glacier," the car features a black finish on the F1-type air intake blade, side protection molding, and rear diffuser, evoking a sporty image. The "RENAULT SPORT" emblem further accentuates its athletic stance.

The price is ¥3.44 million, ¥100,000 higher than the base model.
