PROS

Outstanding Euro NCAP rating

CONS

Not as good looking as the hatchback

Written by Parkers Published: 6 June 2019

Overview

Megane saloon models were launched a year after the hatchback range. Unlike many saloon variants, this one is available with a wide range of engines, including some excellent diesels. Buyers have warmed to the hatch’s controversial looks, but it doesn’t really work with a boot. Prices are keen, equipment levels are good and the diesel engine is good enough to satisfy company car drivers.

Plus, a five star Euro NCAP rating makes it one of the safest cars in its class.
