The Renault Scenic E-Tech 100% electric, the next chapter in a 30-year success story in family mobility, will be available to order from 14th December priced from £40,995, with first deliveries expected in May.

Fully electric and brimming with useful and intuitive technology, its all-electric powertrain features a compact 87kWh battery and a 220hp motor, capable of delivering a 379-mile range. The 2.78m wheelbase ensures an exceptionally spacious cabin and it is lighter (1852kg) and more compact than the average C-segment vehicle. Its pioneering Solarbay opacifying glass roof and ingenious rear armrest – includes storage for devices, screen stands and cup holders – create an inviting, comfortable and practical space for families.

Clever use of new materials and a complete absence of leather in the interior are part of a renewed focus on sustainability. In fact, up to 24% of the Scenic E-Tech 100% electric’s materials are recycled while 90% of its mass – including the battery – is recyclable.

The three-model range, comprising TECHNO, ESPRIT ALPINE and ICONIC trim, will be available to order from 14th December, with first customer deliveries from May 2024.

From the opening of ordering, customers can also benefit from a deposit contribution of up to £750 when they purchase the Scenic E-Tech 100% electric via a 7.9%, 48-month Personal Contract Plan (PCP). Via this finance option they can drive away in Renault’s latest all-electric model from only £459 per month.

EXTERIOR DESIGN
The Scenic E-Tech 100% electric’s architecture is groundbreaking. It features a fully flat floor, large inch wheels, a long wheelbase, and a Solarbay opacifying panoramic roof, creating an adaptable space perfect for modern families. Its proportions are unique, too, ensuring remarkable roominess and uncompromising comfort for everyone.

The Nouvel’R logo sits among an array of superimposed small diamonds making up the grille. These patterns merge into the headlights at the top of the grille, creating a spectacular high-tech effect. A striking welcome sequence greets its occupants as they approach.

At the rear, the high-tech lights are cited like two arrows and appear to stretch the width of the vehicle. Micro-optical technology brings them to life when activated, yet they appear to float when switched off.

Aerodynamic efficiency was a central focus throughout the design process. At the front, air curtains optimise the air flow around the vehicle, while the sculpted rear dispels drag with a character-defining line. The lightweight alloy wheels feature a design that reduces air inlet space, while the door handles retract flush with the body.

Depending on the trim, the roof and door pillars can be finished in contrasting Diamond Black with six appealing body colours:
- Flame Red - Midnight Blue - Diamond Black - Shadow Grey - Arctic White - Matte Shadow Grey (exclusive to the esprit Alpine trim)

INTERIOR DESIGN
- Solarbay Panoramic Glass Roof
Developed in partnership with Saint-Gobain. Its AmpliSky technology uses a combination of PDLCs (polymer dispersed liquid crystals) to change the opacity of the glass one segment at a time. Now offer a panoramic roof that can be either fully or partially opacified in segments between full light, full opaque, light at the front but opaque at the back, and the reverse. It allows passengers in the back to lighten or opacify the roof in their area without affecting the occupants in the front. Its operation can be controlled using a button by the overhead light or by Google Assistant voice control for an effect that positively wows passengers.

- Clever Storage
Includes the glove compartment, door bins, an open storage area in the centre console with two large cupholders, pockets behind the front seats, a compartment under the armrest which also slides back and forth. Under the centre screen is storage and wireless charging for smartphones. Rear seat passengers have their own ingenious armrest with two swivelling arms, storage for smartphones and tablets, fold-out stands to watch screens comfortably, two cupholders and two USB-C ports. A concealed trap door allows long items to be carried without folding down the rear seat by providing access to the ample boot that increases space with the seats folded.

- Sounds by Jean-Michel Jarre with Ircam
Electronica pioneer Jean-Michel Jarre joined forces with Renault, along with Ircam and the Group’s sound design teams, to develop two types of sounds: Vehicle Sounds for Pedestrians, to warn people that the car is approaching when it is moving at less than 18mph and the Welcome sound sequence which plays when you sit in the car. Every detail was analysed to create sounds that capture the Renault brand’s spirit, are instantly recognisable in our cities’ soundscapes and convey a feeling of movement.

- Four MULTI-SENSE modes
Comfort, Sport, Eco and Perso – provide a different atmosphere by combining the indoor lights and screen colour in varying ways with the driving sensations (steering-wheel resistance, powertrain calibration and pedal response). MULTI-SENSE also customises the mood with Living Light, a choice of 48 colours for the dashboard, backlighting and front and rear door strips.

- OpenR Link Multimedia System with Google built-in:
Features more than 50 apps (Google Play)
12.3-inch driver information display on the dashboard
12-inch vertical central display
The traditional round dial has been replaced by a 28-degree diagonal speed line

- Charging Plan
The journey planner has been optimised by Google and Renault engineers for electric vehicles. This allows the system to make smarter decisions about where to charge, optimising charging time and significantly shortening journey time as a result. Charging stops can be selected based on their power rating and the payment methods the driver prefers. And this can all be done directly on your phone before leaving the house, with the itinerary sent to the car automatically.

- Weather
Weather information supplied by Google helps to accurately estimate the battery’s remaining range by taking information such as wind direction and speed into account.
