Renault confirms Twingo specifications

Renault fans looking to get behind the wheel of the new Twingo have been given more information on the car's specifications by the manufacturer.

Following its UK release, the carmaker claims the new model boasts a "cheekier" front end as a result of the firm's new design identity.

Other external features include a revised bumper and tailgate and a new rear lighting set up.

The Twingo Dynamique 1.2 16V 75 is set to carry a competitive on-the-road price starting at £10,350.

Drivers are also offered a variety of options with climate control and an electric panoramic sunroof, just two options from a long list of customisation accessories.

Commenting at the Twingo's debut in Germany last year, Laurens van den Acker, Renault's senior vice-president of corporate design, said: "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."

Those waiting for the new Twingo Renaultsport 133 'halo model will have to hold on a little longer as the company confirmed an April 2012 launch.
