Which Renault Scenic should I buy?

Filed under: choosing new car

The question

I test drove a Renault Scenic E-Tech electric today. Techno trim. I don't know whether it will accommodate five adults in the car since the middle seat in the rear is already blocking the visibility of the driver.

Or should I get the higher trim where there is a camera feed of the rear view into the central mirror?

Hi Hago,

The Scenic is an excellent EV and it's not alone in suffering from rear visibility when there are three people sitting in the back - that's true of most cars in fact.

Sounds like you've already found the solution, though, as the Iconic Esprit Alpine version comes with what Renault calls the 'Smart Rear View Mirror', which can indeed take the feed from the rear-facing camera. This solves the problem.

Let us know how you get on.
