Thank you for a great review. I like this Renault which is something I thought I would never say!!! I own a 23 plate Lexus and the safety features are the biggest pain in the bottom!!! I am that sick to death of turning them off I am thinking of changing my car.. I might even buy an older one to get away from them all!! Glad they have gone for a one button off option.. All these safety features are completely unnecessary! My insurance went up even though I have all the stupid safety features! I may give this car a test drive.. I have avoided electric cars due to the limited mileage and wasted time waiting for it to charge… I’m still not convinced that I will own an electric car, Hybrid is best for me.

I'm buying one so I closely studied the mileage tests made by youtubers and magazines. Expect a solid 300kms/190 miles for a 80-10% at 70mph. In a pure urban environment, expect even better results than the WLTP (more than 600kms from full to 0). Anyway, the car autonomy should outclass your bladder's.

It's so funny to me that all reviewers say that you can so easily turn off the safety features as a positive thing. It's just so weird "oh yeah, you can drive unsafely this easily!" But thank you for the comprehensive look into this car. It's on my shortlist for new cars.
@johnbanksreviews
Ай бұрын
I agree; that’s why I put an emphasis on how they’re there to keep us safe however, some people hate them so much they’re a deal breaker to them. I think the most ‘irritating’ one is when you drift over 30-31 you get the spear warning. Personally I left everything on and nothing was too intrusive.
@donquilmi
Ай бұрын
Well, some of the safety features are just intrusive and not convenient in a all-day use of the car. It's great that the car detects that you're falling asleep on the motorway and is able to keep you on track, but having the feeling that someone grabs the wheel each time you step on a line in an urban area is neither safe nor comfortable.
@JonathanPriceUK
Ай бұрын
Agreed but some of the safety features don't necessarily perform as you might expect ... when I had an MG4 it intentionally steered me into the middle of the road (and oncoming traffic) when the road ahead was narrowing. It was essential to turn it off for every trip. If that is several levels deep in the UI then that is a deal breaker. Hence ease of disablement is high on my list.

@agharuokansirim4935

Safety features are advisory in nature. A lot of drivers are very attentive and responsible. They have no need for safety features like attention monitors similar features. Other features like presdestrian monitors and emergency breaking are essential. I don't think anyone has complained about those. We are humans ergo individuals. Some of us want a little more control of what we do. The next thing we will be saying is why don't we watch state controlled media and obey everything they tell us

£45k for a family car, how is that world car of the year. Thats Tesla car money. Dacia spring £15k I can see that getting some way towards car of the year. EV9 I can see winning it. but what exactly does Renault bring to the table to win this prize, from what this KZitem review shows, Nothing 0 to 60 = slow to standard. price = too much the list goes on and on. the term "I cant see it been a problem" well that just equals "Renault did not think about this problem at all". so as far as I can see from this review, sound more like the 102 independent jornalists for world car of the year were given a better lunch by renault than by Tesla, Kia, MG, Hyundi, Nissan etc...... personally paying £45k for a £30k car is a bit of an insult. This is just my own opinion yours could be different to mine.
@johnbanksreviews
Ай бұрын
Not that it changes your points but this actually won European car of the year and not world car of the year. However I understand people are always going to have differing opinions about cars and what works for them. For me, I think this car looks wonderful, it's very well styled and I love the thoughtful interior touches that its rivals certainly do not have. The range is very impressive and this has been proven to be a reliable prediction, this ultimately is where the slightly higher price tag comes in. It is as fast as it needs to be, it doesn't claim to be a performance EV and I would be shocked if the average person needed anything quicker. (Very valid that people want a fast EV but then there is many of them out there.) Charging is a fair fact however, the fact it comes with a higher AC as standard is a HUGE bonus as that really is where 99% of people do their charging. Actually finding a 100kW charger isn't easy. Like I said, you're entitled to thinking another car would work better for your needs but I personally think the Scenic hits the nail on the head in all areas.
