Review: 2024 Renault Scenic E-Tech 160kW Esprit Alpine 87kWh Long Range 5dr Auto, Renault has reimagined the Scenic for 2024, presenting a sleek, fully electric crossover that promises a blend of family-friendly practicality and modern sophistication. The Scenic E-Tech 160kW Esprit Alpine is a compelling option for eco-conscious drivers looking for a long-range, stylish EV., Performance and Powertrain, Powered by a 160kW (214hp) electric motor, the Scenic E-Tech provides a smooth, brisk acceleration typical of modern EVs. The 87kWh battery offers a competitive range of up to 385 miles (WLTP), making it a strong contender in the family EV segment. With ample torque for urban commutes and motorway driving, the Scenic feels responsive and balanced, although its weight (a common factor in EVs) is evident in tight cornering., The Esprit Alpine trim adds sporty flourishes, but the Scenic prioritizes comfort over outright performance. The suspension setup effectively absorbs road imperfections, delivering a relaxed ride suitable for longer journeys., Efficiency and Charging, The 87kWh battery supports 150kW DC fast charging, enabling a 10-80% charge in about 30 minutes. Home charging is equally convenient, with a full charge achievable overnight via a 7.4kW wall box. Renault’s focus on efficiency translates to an impressive consumption figure of around 3.8 miles/kWh. Grey Cloth interior, Grey, £36,990
