Video Summary
Okay, here is a summary of the video:- The Renault Scenic ETech is an absolutely fantastic machine.
- It can achieve a real-world range of 330 miles.
- The infotainment system is excellent and runs on Google.
- The car has an overall great cockpit area and self-driving capabilities.
- The windshield wipers perform well.
- A Google system provides a range-end marker.
- The interior is quiet, and overall, the car seems very well built.
- The car has a good safety/warning system for speed cameras, etc.
- The wheel design looks quite nice.
- The base model’s seats are made of recycled materials and are comfortable.
- Charging is a bit disappointing with only 67 kW achieved when it charges at a Tesla supercharger.
- The Renault is awkward to get close enough to charge with Tesla superchargers.
- The Google system for predicting mileage/range can be inaccurate.
- The video’s real-world range test was performed in less-than-ideal conditions, with a 14°C, rainy day; in warm, dry weather and a slightly lower highway speed (60mph), the reviewer predicts the vehicle would achieve more than 345 miles.
- The Tesla would not have been able to make it back in one charge, under same highway driving conditions and hill terrain, showing that he reviewer is still impressed.
