Caralogy Analysis · tailored to this vehicle

Caralogy Verdict

Suitable for

Demanding drivers: 1st of 22 in Top speed (260 km/h). 1st of 22 in Top speed (260 km/h).

Less suitable for

Frequent urban trips with stop-and-go. At 8,4 L/100 km on the combined cycle, consumption rises in the city without electric assistance. An HEV or PHEV would be more economical for this use profile.

Alternatives to consider

If the priority is 0–100 km/h, the Bmw M140i xDrive (1st with 4.4 s) takes the lead. If the priority is Power-to-weight, the Bmw M2 Competition (1st with 265 hp/t) takes the lead.

Acceleration: 5.4 s 0-100 (20th of 22 in 0–100 km/h)

In pure acceleration, the Megane 4 RS Trophy 300 ranks 20th of 22 in 0–100 km/h, 1.0 s off the reference Bmw M140i xDrive (4.4 s).

Top speed: 260 km/h (1st of 22 in Top speed)

Top speed of 260 km/h. The segment reference reaches 260 km/h.

Frequently asked questions

Renault Megane 4 RS Trophy 300: what you need to know

Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.

Where does the Megane 4 RS Trophy 300 rank in its segment?#

Among the 22 compacts 2017–2021, the Megane 4 RS Trophy 300 ranks 20th of 22 in 0–100 km/h (5.4 s, behind the Bmw M140i xDrive), 1st of 22 in Top speed (260 km/h, behind the Renault Megane 4 RS Trophy 300), 11th of 22 in Power-to-weight (207 hp/t, behind the Bmw M2 Competition).

How much does the Megane 4 RS Trophy 300 cost to run?#

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

Why not a Bmw M140i xDrive instead?#

The Bmw M140i xDrive leads in 0–100 km/h (4.4 s vs 5.4 s). The choice depends on your priorities: check the Megane 4 RS Trophy 300 vs Bmw M140i xDrive duel for a detailed comparison.

How does Caralogy calculate its figures?#

Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
