Official leakage: The new Mégane III

Click on picture above for complete gallery
One of the leaders in the European market, the Mégane, is reaching the end of its life cycle. While we've heard the official announcement that everything will be unveiled at the upcoming Paris Motor Show, there have been leaks everywhere. What do they show? Well, besides the aesthetic changes toward a more conservative style (check the old model here), Renault claims improved perceived quality. When it comes to the powertrains, the most important novelties are a new 1.4-liter 130hp TCE engine which beats the current generation's 2.0 liter by reducing fuel consumption by almost a liter every 100 km. Renault also sells a complete diesel range with 1.5-liter and 2.0-liter engines. The French marque has also announced improvements to make them Euro V compliant.

Come on Nissan, slap your logo on this and call it the new Versa.

"(....) Renault claims improved perceived quality"
Isn't "perceived quality" a measure of customer feedback... ie, how people perceive the quality?
If so, how could this metric already exist for a car that has not come out yet?

Oh no! I loved the old Megane's styling... Now it looks like some weird Ford/Kia/Mazda melange: a Foriazda.

Could this possibly look any more like a Mazda3? Immitation may be the sincerist form of flattery, but they just Xeroxed the damn thing..
