The electric SUV received a total of 329 votes from the jury of 58 journalists representing 22 countries, closely followed by the BMW 5 Series with 308 votes.
Fabrice Cambolive, CEO of Renault, commented:
“Winning the prestigious ‘The Car of the Year’ award is a great source of pride for everyone at Renault Group and the Renault brand. This recognition demonstrates that we have made the right choices: record-breaking range, generous and inviting roominess, all with a closely managed environmental footprint! When you add in the driving pleasure and ‘voiture à vivre’ equipment such as the new Solarbay panoramic sunroof or the latest generation OpenR Link system with integrated Google systems, Scenic e-tech 100% electric has all the right features to shore up its position on the European EV market.”
