Power is derived from a 1.8-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine that delivers 280 PS and 390 Nm of torque, allowing for the century sprint to be completed in 5.8 seconds. Top speed for the manual variant is 255 km/h, while the automatic variant has a slightly lower top speed of 250 km/h.

Unlike a lot of its rivals, the all-new Renault Megane R.S. is equipped with a four-wheel steering system called 4Control. 4Control works by automatically adjusting the rear wheels to point in the same direction as the front wheels, up to one degree at higher speeds and in the opposite direction, up to 2.7 degrees at lower speeds. The switchover point is set at 60 km/h or 100 km/h in Race mode.

The 6-speed EDC-equipped Megane R.S. comes with aluminium steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters, plus the addition of these features (in Sport and Race mode):
- Multi-Change Down: Allows the driver to drop several gears simultaneously under braking in manual mode by pressing and holding down the left side paddle. The system will select the best gear to exit the corner as efficiently as possible
- Launch Control: The system pre-loads the clutch and turbo, allowing the car to accelerate as quick as possible. In Sport mode, traction control supports the driver in maximizing available grip in slippery conditions
