2012 Renault Twingo Price – £10 350

Renault UK has announced the new 2012 Twingo, which starts at just £10 350 OTR.

The small city car is completely restyled and features new bold design, new revised bumper, tailgate and new rear lights.

“We have heightened New Twingo’s sensuous styling and seductive appeal, marking a return to Twingo’s original personality. We have also given the front end the brand’s new design identity which will be seen on all our new models.”, commented Renault’s Senior Vice President, Corporate Design, Laurens van den Acker.

2012 Twingo is available in Fuchsia and Bermuda Blue added to the seven existing body colours.

The interior boasts Luxe Carbon seats, cruise control and a speed limiter as standard. Ideal around town and especially in speed camera-monitored roadworks, the speed limiter will not allow the car to exceed a pre-selected speed, whilst on a longer run, cruise control will maintain a selected speed. Therefore, New Twingo is as at home on the motorway as it is in the city.

The engine is a 1.2 liter 16V petrol with 75PS boasting impressive 55.4 mpg in the combined cycle with CO2 emissions of 119g/km.

The options list boasts climate control, electric panoramic sunroof, two Option Packs and long list of exterior customisation accessories such as Renaultsport rear spoiler, and a series of decals.

New Twingo is on sale in the UK now.
