New Renault Scenic Review: Eco-Friendly Design and Practicality

Behold, the new Renault Scenic - a French marvel that has ditched its ICE roots for an all-electric future. This eco-friendly beast boasts a boxier, more SUV-like design, with fancy trim levels and flashy details. From the sleek front end with thin headlamps to the quirky rear design, this car is a head-turner. But wait, there's more - the interior is a tech-lover's dream, with a large portrait-style screen, climate controls, and nifty driving information display. Practicality is key here, with ample storage options, wireless charging, and comfy seating adjustments.

Step inside, and you're greeted with a spacious cabin that offers generous knee room, headroom, and foot space. The rear seats are a cozy haven, complete with ambient lighting, USB-C charging ports, and thoughtful storage solutions. But it's not all sunshine and rainbows - the Renault Scenic has its quirks. The gear select switch is oddly placed, the separate volume controls are a nuisance, and those pop-out door handles can be a tad finicky. Folding down the rear seats can be a hassle, and the low cover doesn't quite fit where it should.

When it comes to practicality, the Renault Scenic shines with a 545 L boot capacity, complete with hooks, a 12v socket, and underfloor storage for your charging cables. However, there are some gripes - the rear seat belts tend to snag, the low cover refuses to cooperate, and there's no wash function for the rearview camera. Despite these minor setbacks, the Renault Scenic remains a solid choice for those seeking an electric ride with a touch of French flair.
