"The Renault Twingo is a small and inexpensive city car that looks good with decent functionality combines."
The Renault Twingo is a small city car that the buyer provides otherwise. While most of its competitors - like the Hyundai i10, Kia Picanto and Skoda Citigo - would their engine, where you have to be there at the front expect, the Twingo rear engine. This means can rotate his front wheels at a narrower angle, it is to give a very small turning circle, which is perfect for the city streets. The Smart ForTwo and ForFour also have their engines in the back, but they are both more expensive than the Twingo.
Renault Twingo with two petrol engines offers. The entry-level 1.0-liter SCe 70 produces 69bhp, returns 56.5mpg (67.3mpg to rise when selecting the stop-start function) and gets the Twingo from 0-62mph in 14.5 seconds. There is enough energy there for city driving, but if you plan to venture outside of the city from time to time, we recommend upgrading.
The more powerful TCe 0 engine is small, with 0.9-liter, but uses turbocharging produce 89bhp. It is faster than the SCe Motor (0-62mph takes 10.8 seconds) yet still pretty efficiently thanks to standard stop-start, with a claimed 65.7mpg economy figure of. This engine is also equipped with an automatic transmission, although this affects negatively on fuel consumption by about 10%. Vehicle tax is equipped for Twingo with stop-start, and only 20- £ 30 £ per year for without models.

on the street is the Twingo competent and not brilliant. The tight turning radius makes maneuvering a breeze, but the high driving position, and the slightly odd to steering feel deter drive it very fast. This is not such a problem if you drive mostly in an urban environment, but the Twingo is not hugely enjoyable a winding B road to push down, as some city cars.
inner quality is reasonable and the dashboard layout is logical, but the VW up! and Hyundai i10 feel something more inward solid. The Twingo is certainly spacious but: while it is only about three and a half meters long, Renault has to squeeze in somehow four doors and four seats right - although the rear window pop out, rather than winding down. You will not be able to close to lounge and relax, but the passenger compartment is actually pretty impressive for a city car. The 219-liter boot is a bit smaller than the average, as it sits on top of the engine, but it is well formed and Products Packaging is simple, thanks to the lack of load lip.
You can have a Twingo in four main trims: Expression cars come with a DAB radio, Bluetooth, LED lights and electric windows is running, but without the essentials such as air conditioning. You will need to play trim that complements also a height-adjustable driver's seat and more personalization options - a Twingo strength. It is not until mid-range trim Dynamique that you light alloy wheels and the powerful engine will get available. Top-spec Dynamique S trim adds partial leather seats and larger alloy wheels.
A special edition "The Colour Run" model with a sliding fabric roof comes on top of all the standard equipment of the play model, as well as 15-inch alloy wheels. It also comes with the option of outdoor Renault Touch packs and internal Style Packs further personalize its appearance at no extra cost. These are the same Twingo lighthearted personality, and this version looks like a good price-performance ratio.

Twingo came in our 2016- driver Power customer satisfaction survey, from 150 cars 67th with a 47th place for reliability. Renault came eight of 32 manufacturers, indicating that its past reputation for dubious reliability is just that - in the past. Security is appropriate NCAP thanks to a four-star rating from Euro. While some competitors have the full five stars, the Twingo has been tested under the new, stricter criteria and offers decent adults and children occupant protection.
