The 2011 Eurocup Mégane Trophy season marked the seventh edition of the Renault-backed single-make touring car competition, held as part of the World Series by Renault. Stefano Comini clinched the championship title with two rounds still to go, having dominated the season by triumphing in every race except one during the earlier stages.

Despite the withdrawal of Brixia Autosport (formerly known as BMS Scuderia Italia) at a late stage, the 2011 season maintained a grid of nine teams, consistent with the number that competed in 2010.
