Inovev plans 50,000 units in 2027 and 70,000 in 2030 of the new Renault Scenic E-Tech
- Renault is gradually completing its 100% electric so-called E-Tech range. After the Megane E-Tech launched last year and the R5 E-Tech launched next year, here is the Scenic E-Tech presented at the 2023 Munich Motor Show which will be marketed in 2024.
- It is a C-segment SUV derived from the Megane E-Tech (it is therefore no longer a minivan like the Scenic marketed from 1996 to 2023). It will therefore take over the CMF-EV platform dedicated to 100% electric compact cars from the Renault group, as well as the electric motor and battery from the Megane E-Tech. Like it, the Scenic E-Tech will be manufactured on the French site of Douai (Hauts de France). Compared to the Megane E-Tech, it will be a bit like the ID4 is to the ID3 at Volkswagen.
- This 100% electric Renault Scenic will have to try to revive sales of a model which has seen its influence decline at great speed over the last twenty years, going from 350,000 units in 2005 to 150,000 in 2008, 100,000 in 2015 and 6,000 in 2022. Inovev expects production of 50,000 units in 2027 and 70,000 in 2030.
- The Scenic E-Tech measures 4.47 m long, 1.86 m wide and 1.57 m high, compared to 4.20 m, 1.86 m and 1.51 m for the Megane E-Tech. The wheelbase is 10 cm longer than that of the Megane E-Tech. The Scenic E-Tech engine is available in two power ratings: 125 kW (170 hp) and 160 kW (218 hp). The battery has a capacity of 60 kWh allowing a range of 420 km or a capacity of 87 kWh allowing a range of 610 km of range according to the WLTP cycle. In 2022, Renault produced 46,722 examples of its Megane E-Tech in Douai, which roughly corresponds to the manufacturer's objectives.
