Renault GRAND SCENIC Overwiew And Specifications page 17

RESPONSIBLE PERFORMANCE
WITH ROADHOLDING TO KEEP YOU ON TRACK.
Exceptional roadholding, for exceptional driveability: that's the aim. With the front and rear wheels at equal width, the New Scénic offers unrivalled
balance and directional stability. The comfort and precision are equally superb on bends and wet surfaces. For responsiveness, it's backed
by understated, high-performance engines that accelerate freely, particularly with the dCi 160 diesel and TCe 130 petrol. All engines promise
reduced consumption and CO emissions. New to the Scénic is a CVT (continuously variable transmission) gearbox that can be matched to the
2
2.0 VVT 140 engine. CVT transmission gives a smooth, efficient and quick rate of acceleration. Also available is the dCi 150 engine which comes with
a 6-speed sequential shift proactive gearbox. So with the New Scénic, a people carrier can be environmentally responsible and rewarding to drive.
New Grand Scénics and Scénics carrying the eco 2 symbol meet three criteria:
they produce CO emissions at or lower than 140 g/km (as low as 135 g/km on
2
the dCi 86 engine), they are manufactured at Maubeuge, an ISO 14001 certified
factory, minimising their environmental impact, and they are 95% recyclable with
6% recycled plastic in their plastic mass.
With eco 2 , Renault displays its environmental commitment at every stage of the
life cycle of the vehicle. The vehicle has been designed in such a way that 95%
of the materials used could have a second life (recyclable for other use or as a source
of energy), and that pollution control at the end of the vehicle's life (in particular
extraction of fluids) is made easier. Furthermore, this vehicle has parts made
of recycled plastic and renewable materials.
