Renault puts a price on the 2012 Twingo Facelift

2012 Renault Twingo costs £10,350

The facelift for the 2012 Renault Twingo debuted at Frankfurt, and Renault has now put a price on their new baby – £10,350.

The facelift for the 2012 Renault Twingo is not the most comprehensive overhaul you’ll eve see in a car, consisting mainly of a new nose reflecting more current Renault design, a tiny tweak round the back and a few new colour options.

But then the 2012 Twingo is really just a stop-gap until a SMART-based Twingo arrives – probably in 2013 – and as such does its job; making the Twingo look a bit fresher.

Engine choice in the new Twingo is Hobson’s choice, with a 1.2 litre petrol 74bhp which averages 55.4mpg and emits 119g/km.

Despite the single engine choice, the new Twingo does offer a plethora of options, including stuff like an electric panoramic roof, Climate and a host of cosmetic customising choices, including rear spoiler, roof decals and different colours for the door mirrors and ends of the side mouldings.

What is also on offer is access to Renault’s 4+ programme worth £900, which gives you four years warranty (up to 100k), four years of servicing (up to 48,000 miles), four years roadside cover and four years finance.

The 2012 Renault Twingo is now on sale at £10,350, with prices promised for the new Twingo Renaultsport 133 before its launch in April.
