2015 Renault Twingo GT spied undergoing testing

Will likely get an uprated 0.9-liter turbo


Our spies have sent us fresh images with the Renault Twingo GT set to go on sale sometime next year.




Renault already confirmed a hotter Twingo is on the way and that will not wear the "RS" badge because it will not match the 133 PS (98 kW) output of the previous generation Twingo RS. As a result, it probably means Renault will use the "GT" moniker and will pack 110 - 120 PS (81 - 88 kW) from an uprated three-cylinder 0.9-liter TCe turbocharged gasoline engine.




Aside from the power bump, the Twingo GT will also gain a sportier suspension, larger alloy wheels, dual exhaust arrangement and beefier brakes. There’s no word about the gearbox but chances are Renaultsport will install the EDC dual-clutch six-speed 'box although purists will probably prefer a manual.




The Renault Twingo GT will likely be unveiled sometime next year when Brabus will also launch more powerful versions of the Smart ForTwo and ForFour duo.
