Renault has replaced entry-level Extreme versions of its Megane with a new Generation trim.

The Megane Generation is available with a 99bhp 1.6-litre petrol or an 89bhp 1.5-litre diesel engine. Prices start at £10,995 for the petrol and £12,755 for the diesel version.

However, these prices are valid during the manufacturer’s summer-offer period, which runs until the end of September.

After that, the list price jumps by £3000, although Generation cars will still be £860 cheaper than the discontinued Extreme cars and will be available with generous discounts.

Both models use a five-speed manual gearbox and come with a four-speaker CD stereo with auxiliary input, air-conditioning, cruise and stability controls, hands-free entry and electric windows.
