Renault Scenic E-Tech review - a brilliant all-rounder at a reasonable price
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 сер 2024
- Renault's Scenic recipe has been under the microscope for a couple of generations now, but in the move to electric, it's also picked up a far cooler SUV body. Richard Ingram finds out whether Renault's next big bet has paid off, and whether this is actually a family car you'd now WANT to buy, rather than just need to buy...

What a Brilliant presenter this guy is. Such a clear, well spoken person, with no up & downs in his voice, as so many presenters do. No over acting, just talking to us, it makes watching a review so much more enjoyable. 110/10
Please grow up FFS. He's useless.
I really wish the Scenic name had been used for something more MPV like, given its iconic history and thye had used a new name for this SUV. Renault should have given us a better rival/alternative for the ID Buzz rather than the mass (literally) of SUV mainstream. It seems like a loss of opportunity and identity to me, as much as it is a good product.
Wish you had shown the front seats in full as for me it's important.
in the uk the glass roof is only available on the top model ! :/
good review.. Is it front or rear wheel drive?
front
I'd take the Megane over this everyday and twice on a Sunday.....
Ever felt a knee in your back from your children?
The Megane, but better? They are completely different segments of car. If you don’t have kids, definitely go for the Megane, if you do, then the Scenic is a no brainer….
The only thing missing here are 7 seats and its a missed opportunity, since 7 seater EVs are still rare and all crazy expensive.
Lovely looking car
Did seem like there was too much road noise? May have been the mics. Frunk? Disappointing no 1 pedal drive. Will wait and see if it does appear OTA like he said, or whether it will be a mid cycle facelift type addition. A solid offering though.
There's no engine noise & just a gentle whrrr that is computer generated, so you will hear the outside more. Shame they haven't done a choice of computer generated 'engine' noises, like a Ferrari, or F1 car, big truck, in fact anything you can think of, or make yourself. It can't be hard to do.
@@seltaeb9691but do people really want that?
I bet some would but would enough people want that?
I wouldn't
to give you a response as I own one, you can simply adjust the regeneration with paddles on the steering wheel, so you can have it coast or regenerate hard (has 4 levels)
Ah yes, good old Richard. Only likes SUVs
My wife and me sat in the car today for the first time. That "cocooned" feel is exactlx one of those things we both didn`t like - for us, it felt more like in a sort of a tank, like "walled up". We love our 17 year old Ford C-Max (next to a lot of other aspects) for its low window line. It makes the sense of space so airy.
The solar bay roof is pretty pointless to us (we would prefer a PV module), as well as the electric hatch, considering the fact that after opening it electrically, you are invited to lift your luggage to the first floor. For the prize, we would have expected at least vehicle-to-home-readiness as standard. The way it is, there`s not much of an "innovative car" as the acronyme "SCENIC" suggests. But that`s it with complaining. The car has a halfway compact size, impressive space and legroom on all seats, and even if you can`t remove the rear seats, there`s plenty of room to load even pretty bulky furniture, in case of a relocation or when you come out of IKEA. This car beats a lot of much bigger vehicles.
We definitely could live with that one. Maybe in a year or two.
Until then, Renault should go on developing this car:
=> a PV module alternatively to the solar bay
=> the electric hatch should not be standard. Put it on the surcharge list
=> a lower loading sill
=> removable backseats
=> vehicle-to-home
Not one word about the boot, wow hasn't been reporting a car features changed. How much are tyres? Does it have a spare? I am guessing some of the comments on here are paid for😂
Spare tyres went out about 20 years ago.
i don't like fixed glassroofs, the best solution has the fisker ocean. solar + vented
Reasonable price?
What effing planet are you people on?
'under £40k 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I know. Bargain right.
They're paid to write that. They're also paid to censor all critical comments in the comments section.
We are in 2024, the average price of a brand new car is 36 k€ so about £31k. So under £40k for a large family EV is not too much. And you will save on gas and maintenance. But you can get a Megane E-tech if the Scenic is too expansive for you. And I would rather buy a Tesla model 3, but not everybody like the style of Teslas so it is nice to have more choice. And you can buy a second hand Zoé for less than 10 k€ with less than 50 000 km...
@@philipjames3526 All brand new cars are expansive. An average price of 36 k€ means that many cars around you are far more expansive, eg huge useless powerful diesel SUVs. It also means that such prices are not an issue at all for many people. So you buy depending on your needs, your taste, and your wallet. Before buying my model 3 in 2018, I tried a Zoé but the rear seats where to uncomfortable for 3 teenagers and I would have had to keep an ICE car for long trips since at this time no Zoé had fast charging. And at the time it was not possible to buy a second hand model 3 since I got one of the first in Europe. But if one day one of my children needs a car, it will probably be a sub 10 k€ second hand EV, eg a Zoé with the CCS option, it will be just perfect for everyday, and a bit changeling for long trips but who cares since when you need to go fast you can buy a high speed train ticket...
@@pistonburner6448except yours apparently which have been up for months. Dope.
There is only 1 benckmark to beat!
If its able to beat the Tesla model Y
On charging, consumption, compfort,... it can be a winner.
Its beats it o range but has 87kW vs 72kw for a Tesla.
The build quality and ride comfort in our Tesla Y is absolutely unacceptable, the lack of anything physical is dangerous
In our market, this car with the 87kWh battery is cheaper than the Mode Y with the small battery . So if one is interested in range, this is a better choice.
Tesla ADAS are very poor and dangerous. 10 years late! Unusable !!
@@alanwayte432genuine question because I’ve never looked at buying a Tesla. Are you unable to test drive them beforehand? I would have thought issues like the ride quality would have been readily apparent on a test drive.
For me it doesn't take much to beat a model Y.
"Reasonable price" The cheapest one is £40K!!!
They always ignore it. As they are all EVangelists. This car is not worth half that. It will depreciate like a ton of bricks.
The Peugeot e-3008 which is a rival of this is £50k. This seems a better option but the price of E vehicles are ridiculous considering we are being pushed towards them
Considering this is much nicer, much more well built and more comfortable than a Tesla 3 that everyone wants and costs more, this is a very good price indeed.
@@TerbrugZondolopyou need to look at petrol car prices. And get a grip.
Yeah, I bought a brand new middle range Scenic back in 2000 for £13500; it wasn't much fun to drive, but was so useful that it became part of the family. OK, we've had inflation, but nowhere near that much. Manufacturers are pricing themselves out of the market and no longer produce anything for "normal" buyers. The PCP bubble will eventually burst and there will be a meltdown in the car market.
Are motor journalists overpayed?
Totally corrupt. They get paid to promote EVs and they delete or hide any and all comments critical of EVs.
@@pistonburner6448lunatic.
They are paid because you watch. If it hurts your feelings stop watching petal 😘
Auto Express is a corrupt liar rag. Shame on you.
No thanks. Petrol all day for me
A pathetically useless review, just to get you some screen time.
