  • Renault will retail the Megane in over 20 countries across the world

The Renault Megane sedan, that will allegedly replace the Fluence in India, was recently spotted testing sans camouflage. Renault debuted the fourth generation of the Megane carline in 2015, when it unveiled the hatchback at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show. This was then followed by the introduction of the estate body-type in March 2016 and finally the sedan in July 2016, which extends the automaker's C-segment line-up.

Renault Megane sedan is built on the CMF C/D architecture (Common Module Family) - a variation of the Renault-Nissan Alliance's CMF platform. Its "dynamic" style comprises sculpted surfaces, well-balanced proportions, a Renault-family front end, a distinctive C-shaped front light signature, and a glass roof linking the windscreen to the rear window.
