Renault is powering ahead in the electric vehicle (EV) space with new high-tech updates for the Megane E-Tech Electric and Scenic E-Tech Electric, bringing smarter driving and more versatile energy use to the forefront. These latest features are designed to enhance everyday convenience, improve efficiency and strengthen Renault’s position in the growing EV market.
Smooth and Smarter Driving with One-Pedal Mode
One of the standout updates is the introduction of one-pedal driving, a feature that allows the car to decelerate smoothly as soon as the driver lifts their foot off the accelerator. This intelligent driving mode simplifies stop-and-go traffic, improves energy regeneration and gives drivers a more intuitive way to control their car—especially in urban environments.
Vehicle-to-Load (V2L): Power Beyond the Road
Renault is also rolling out V2L capability on both models, giving owners the ability to power external devices directly from the car’s battery. Whether it’s charging an e-bike, plugging in a laptop or even running a coffee machine on a road trip, this feature adds practical functionality that’s increasingly popular among EV drivers.
Future-Ready with Plug & Charge and Bidirectional Charging
The Megane and Scenic E-Tech Electric now come equipped with an 11kW AC bidirectional charger, unlocking new features like Plug & Charge for effortless charging at compatible stations—no cards or apps needed. In select countries, they also support Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology, allowing the car to return energy to the grid and potentially save on energy bills.
Personalisation That Recognises You
For the Scenic E-Tech, Renault is taking comfort one step further with driver recognition technology available on higher trims. The system uses a discreet camera to automatically adjust seating, mirrors and in-car preferences based on the driver—adding a premium touch to the everyday experience.
Pricing and Availability
In the UK, pricing for the updated Megane E-Tech Electric starts from £32,495, while the new Scenic E-Tech Electric is available from £37,195. Both models continue to benefit from Renault’s focus on design, sustainability and innovative technology.
