History
The Mégane IV R.S. Trophy-R was launched as Renault Sport's most extreme road car, and in 2019 Laurent Hurgon drove it to a Nürburgring front-wheel-drive record. Hurgon said the bar set by the earlier cars was very high and that the record needed a second lap, the only time he had to resort to one. It cost over 70,000 pounds with options in the UK.
