Reno Twingo it is a small city car known for its incredible compromise between size and comfort. Especially everyone remembers the first generation, capable of transporting 4 passengers or even a shelf from a famous Swedish furniture brand, when the seats are folded! Unfortunately, this incredible tour de force has faded over the years… That doesn’t stop the latest generation from being very smart!
Like Porsche!
The last and third generation Twingo is based on a somewhat special architecture. Indeed, its engine is located in the trunk and drives the rear wheels! Yes, like a Porsche! This allows you to display ridiculously small turning circle, but also funny behavior on the road, especially in its sporty GT version!
GT through…
The Twingo GT is equipped with a small 3-cylinder turbocharged gasoline engine with a volume of only 898 cubic meters.3. This does not prevent it from producing 110 hp. and 170 Nm of torque! Enough to get the little French ton to 100 km/h in less than 10 seconds, but above all to make it more fun to drive, as we can see in the video below! With those few extra horses and the wet road, the driver of this example completes a full turn at the roundabout by controlled drift !
