The original Renault Scenic was loved by families in the nineties and noughties. It pretty much created the whole mini-MPV craze, but times have changed and people-carriers aren't as popular as they once were.
Renault has decided to reboot the Scenic as an electric SUV to rival the Skoda Enyaq and Peugeot E-3008. However, on account of its spacious interior, Renault prefers the term 'family car' than 'electric SUV'.
It comes in two battery sizes: 60kWW, giving a claimed WLTP range of 260 miles, and a larger - and predicted best-seller - 87kWh battery should be good enough for 379 miles before it needs to be topped up.
If you've seen the Megane E-Tech's interior, the Scenic's won't be too much of a surprise as it's brimming with lovely design details and quality materials. back seat passengers also have loads of space and can make use of a clever centre armrest.
Watch my video review to see if it's the electric SUV - sorry, family car - you should be buying.

The Scenic looks much better than the 3008, and the sounds by Jean Michel Jarre if similar to his “Oxygen” must be a real bonus 😉

Nice review. I had two Scènic MPVs: the original 8V 2.0 RXE with a twin sunroof and a later mark 2. My kids grew up in the first car and loved the pop up picnic tables in the back. We also secured DVD screens to the rear of the front headrests to keep them quiet on long drives. This new one is a million miles away from those. I like the external design, the internal space, and the dashboard is so more functional than the original centre-oriented display. There's also no quirky Peugeot i-cockpit with a dinky steering wheel to spoil things. This car should do well. BTW, I have an original vinyl of Jean-Michel Jarre's Oxygène at home so knew what you were talking about.

Great review, only stumbled across this channel now, I didn't realise James had his own channel. Love James's review style, it's not shouty, dramatic, proper motoring journalist. This sounds like a good car, i like that all the nanny systems can be switched off via only physical button... are you listening BYD, Hyundai etc....

I don't know what is it with me and boot preferences, but having had cars both with and without a load lip I've always preferred those WITH a load lip. I just hate it when my groceries land on my feet the moment I open the boot lid, after not being aware that the bag fell over when I was driving. I still vividly remember sour cream falling out of the boot and exploding over my best suit 😅 Safe to say that I prefer cars that can hold their boot contents inside after opening the boot lid, no matter the incline the car's parked on.

Biggest mistake here is calling it a Scenic. Existing or previous Scenic owners who are not die hard petrol heads will wonder why this car is not a straight evolution of the previous model. A new title would indicate that this car is part of Renault's electric revolution- or if they want something retro why not call it the new R14 in a similar way that they have done with the new R5.
@batchreviews
@batchreviews 2 месяца назад
Interesting! I would imagine Renault is calling this car a scenic because they view it as their mid-sized family car, and in a similar space to the original Scenic. Like Ford has shown with Puma, though, people aren’t too fussed about new models differing from earlier versions

Speak for yourself - I don't particularly like one pedal driving, too unnatural. I prefer level 0 in open roads for coasting and level 1 in town to mimic engine braking. All told though, this car looks spot on and I am tempted.

I disagree that the previous Scenics were boxy cars with no curves. Thats rubbish from the very first Scenic to the last model they had curves everywhere inside and outside. I also agree with another poster that this Scenic should have veen called anything but a Scenic even Laguna would have been a better name for it but it is a very good classy car. Its just not a proper Scenic which is supposed to be very clever with lots of clever storafe solutions abd ideas as well as flexible and independent/ibdividual seats everywhere.

@@batchreviews No you said Quote "There is little evidence if the Boxy lines of previous Scenics" unquote. Just where werr these previous Scenics Boxy. The first one certainly was not and neither were any of the ones after it. They were a one box design yes unlike this 2 box design but saloons back when the Scenic was conceived like the Peugeot 406 and Ford Mondeo were even boxer with there 3 box designs.

​@@TerbrugZondolop The automotive industry has changed, a lot, maybe you are just outdated. And honestly I do not see what is "pointless" in this car. The fact that it is a SUV ? Sadly it is what people ask for, and if you do not want a SUV the Renault Mégane E-Tech is already here. The fact that it is electric ? Ever heard of climate warming and air pollution ? You believe climate warming is a hoax ? If so you are stupid but anyway it should not make the Renault Scenic E-Tech "pointless" even for you since new ICE cars will be banned in 2035. And I doubt you are ready to switch to public transportation. So what ? You have no children, or not anymore ? Just wait for the Renault R5 E-Tech...
