Renault Scenic review: Renault reinvents the Scenic. Family man, what's not to like?

Good stuff

Exterior styling, clever interior storage

Bad stuff

So-so to drive, engines a bit ordinary, styling will be too much for some

Overview

What is it?

It’s the new Renault Scenic – perhaps the most outrageously styled MPV of recent times, alongside Citroen’s C4 Picssso. Much of it is down to the wheels, which are not 17s, 18s or even 19s, but whopping 20 inchers – the same size as you get on a Bentley Mulsanne. They’re standard on even the most basic version, which is quite a talking point, but also a distraction from the Scenic’s number one job of looking after the family. Thankfully, it’s quite good at it.

What's the verdict?

MPV sales are down, but the stylish Scenic has every chance of reversing the trend.
