Much larger than the Wind, the Megane CC is poised to compete with the likes of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/tag\/eos\">Volkswagen Eos<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/tag\/a5\">Audi A5<\/a> convertibles. And while the design isn&#8217;t nearly as svelte as the Audi, it&#8217;s a bit more attractive than the often-overlooked Eos.<\/p>\n<p>As is the trend these days, the Megane uses a folding hardtop configuration with a glass roof so drivers can let the sun shine in even when the lid is closed. From there, Renault is offering a total of seven powertrain configurations, encompassing both gas- and diesel-powered mills, as well as dual-clutch, manual and continuously variable transmissions. The new Megane CC will hit European dealerships this spring and you&#8217;ll never see it in the U.S, so check it in both galleries below.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/geneva-2010-renault-megane-coupe-cabriolet\/low\/\">Geneva 2010: Renault Megane Coupe Cabriolet<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/geneva-2010-renault-megane-coupe-cabriolet\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/03\/01renaultmeganecc_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/geneva-2010-renault-megane-coupe-cabriolet\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/03\/02renaultmeganecc_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/geneva-2010-renault-megane-coupe-cabriolet\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/03\/03renaultmeganecc_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/geneva-2010-renault-megane-coupe-cabriolet\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/03\/04renaultmeganecc_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/geneva-2010-renault-megane-coupe-cabriolet\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/03\/05renaultmeganecc_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2011-renault-megane-coupe-convertible\/low\/\">2011 Renault Megane Coupe-Convertible<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2011-renault-megane-coupe-convertible\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/21637hd39f98ae7_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2011-renault-megane-coupe-convertible\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/21640hdf208df16_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2011-renault-megane-coupe-convertible\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/21636hd2cec93ba_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2011-renault-megane-coupe-convertible\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/21639hdb3e9b7cd_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2011-renault-megane-coupe-convertible\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/21638hd2f609571_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>\n<em><strong><small>Live photos by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.drewphillipsphotography.com\/\">Drew Phillips<\/a> \/ <\/small><\/strong><\/em><em><strong><small>Copyright (C)2010<\/small><\/strong><\/em><em><strong><small> Weblogs, Inc.<\/small><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/03\/04\/geneva-2010-renault-megane-coupe-cabriolet-lets-the-light-shine\/\">Geneva 2010: Renault Megane Coupe-Cabriolet lets the light shine in<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Thu, 04 Mar 2010 10:01:00 EST.
