Renault will show off this mid-engined supermini concept at the 2013 Monaco Grand prix race weekend. Called the TwinRun, the R5 Turbo-inspired creation is powered by a mid-mounted 3.5-litre V6, and will hit 155mph flat out. The TwinRun is the latest in a series of wacky Renault concept cars, following the Twizy RS F1 and Twin-Z supermini into the limelight. What's ...

This is the Renault Twin-Z concept (say it 'Twin-Zee'). Although it packs the usual concept car madness of suicide doors, a pared-back cabin and LEDs everywhere, it actually previews the look – and drivetrain – of the next Renault Twingo. The big news is that it'll be rear-engined, rear-drive, and offer an electric option for less money than the £13k Renault ...

Renault has just released this solitary photo of the revised Twingo supermini, which will be unveiled in full at the 2011 Frankfurt motor show in September. It’s all part of the PR thrust – because if you weren’t revved up about the facelifted Twingo, then this single picture is bound to get you very excited, right? Actually, the revised Renault ...

This is the new Renault Twingo Gordini Renaultsport, an upmarket version of the brilliant Renaultsport Twingo. And if you’re confused, let’s start at the beginning. Renault make the Twingo, but its tuning arm Renaultsport also tweak the city car to give us the excellent Renaultsport Twingo. And now Renault has revived the Gordini brand and will use it on posh ...

Sharp-eyed CAR Online reader Damien Morgan sent in some great photos of the day that Top Gear ended up in Belfast – to re-enact one of the most celebrated scenes from The Italian Job.Clarkson and co went to Northern Ireland where they were allowed to film in the Belfast sewerage system.

Renault is to revive the Gordini name, using it on range-topping versions of its Renaultsport Twingo, Clio and Megane hot hatches. Cool. When is Renault bringing back Gordini? The first new-generation Gordini will be based on the Renaultsport Twingo 133, and be unveiled on 25 November 2009 at Renault's premier showroom on the Champs Elysees. The new car will be called ...

Renaultsport does a rather fine line in hot hatches. The outgoing R26R is amazing, the Clio 200 is brilliant, and we’re all fans of the tiny Twingo 133. And now there’s a new Renaultsport Twingo 133, the Cup. But I can already spec a Cup chassis on the Renaultsport Twingo 133, so what’s new? Pen and paper at the ready, ...

This is the new Renaultsport Twingo 133 Cup, a special stripped-out version of the French car company’s brilliant little road rocket. Isn’t there already a Renaultsport Twingo 133 Cup? Sort of. Renault currently sells the Twingo 133 for £12,495, and there’s a £650 Cup chassis option that adds 10% stiffer springs and dampers, a 4mm reduced ride height, plus larger ...

Long-term test update - 26 May 2009 Is there a more appropriate car for our times? After all, how many of us really, genuinely need anything else other than a tiny, fun, practical tearabout for our day-to-day transportation needs? The Twingo seats four, the boot isn’t huge but I’ve managed to fit a Marshall 2x12 amp and an industrial dehumidifier ...
