• Official figures from laboratory type-approval tests. VCA says they may not be achieved in real-world driving, and should not be used to rank cars with similar figures.
• NEDC figures (in VCA’s data until September 2018) and WLTP figures (from the 2019 guide) come from different tests, so they are shown separately and should not be compared.
• VCA’s data has no Renault versions for 2019 to 2020, so the years listed may leave out years the Renault Grand Scenic was on sale.
• Engine sizes are rounded to the nearest 0.1 litre. A version is one line in VCA’s data (description, gearbox, engine and fuel), counted once however many years it was listed. Matched from VCA’s model names “Grand Scénic”, “Grand Scénic, 2013”, “Grand Scenic, 2017”, “Grand Scénic, Model Year May 2009 on”. How we use VCA’s figures.

Renault Grand Scenic safety recalls

We found no recalls for the Renault Grand Scenic in DVSA’s records since 1992. That does not mean none apply: DVSA sometimes records a recall under a range or chassis name we cannot match to a model. Check a specific car on GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check.

A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Renault Grand Scenic. The details come from manufacturers through DVSA, which says they may be delayed or incomplete. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check or ask the manufacturer or a dealer. How we match recalls to models.
