Shame there is no subtitles for the video posted today on this youtube chan, because Laurent Hurgon, the official Renault Sport driver is giving some pretty useful tips about the conception an handling ability of the Alpine.

It’s too tall

This car seems good in paper, but it’s not. Trust me, I’m french and I see this everyday. Even the look, it looks right on photo, but the proportions are too bad. It’s like a kei car, way too tall and narrow, with skinny tires on it. Also this engine is not that reliable.

Some Renault in Jalopnik ? Cheers from France. Here is my 2011 Renault Megant GT turbocharged, manual, 180hp boosted to 220. It’s the little sister of the Megane RS, but bigger bargain.
