Car of The Year: Renault Scenic E-Tech | Parkers New Car Awards 2025

The Renault Scenic E-Tech Electric is a double award winner in the Parkers New Car Awards 2025, taking the coveted Car of The Year prize on the back of taking the spoils in the Best Medium Family Car category. This is the second year that electric and ICE cars go head-to-head in the awards, and it’s significant that the new Renault is such a big winner on this level playing field.

But right now, the best family car is the all-electric Renault Scenic E-Tech. This duo of accolades continues to cement Renault’s reputation for building cars that fit perfectly into people’s lives – offering a combination of value, comfort, driving range and practicality.

It really is an excellent offering. Inside, there’s plenty of room for growing families, with a well-sized boot and roomy underfloor storage compartment, and plenty of lounging space in the rear. The interior is nicely trimmed, and infotainment system – with full Google integration – works a treat. It’s quick and efficient at charging on the go, and thanks to the availability of a gargantuan 87kWh battery pack, it’ll beat 300 miles of driving range without too much difficulty.

On the road, the Scenic E-Tech makes an even more convincing case for itself. Around town, it’s comfortable and easy to drive. However, it also satisfies the demands of keen drivers thanks to its nicely-weighted steering, excellent brakes and lively performance. For an electric family car of this size, it’s relatively light, and that shows in its responsiveness on the road.

In short, the Renault Scenic E-Tech Electric is an outstanding Parkers Car of The Year – and we think you’ll agree, too.
