Renault releases a new large photo gallery of the restyled Scenic and Grand Scenic, now featuring a heavily revised front end, upgraded interiors and two additions to its engine line-up: a 1.2-litre TCe delivering 115 hp and with CO2 emissions of 105g/km, and a 1.5-litre Energy dCi producing 110 hp and 135g/km of CO2 emissions, both of which credited with an average fuel consumption of 4,1 l/100 km. The new model still boasts plenty of space in the cabin and receives a substantial upgrade in terms of electronic equipment. The new Scenic range is in fact equipped with the Visio System, which boasts - among other features - the Lane Departure Warning and the automatic adjustment of the high-beam headlights in accord to the oncoming traffic.

Firstly introduced at the recent Brussels Auto Show, the new Scenic will gradually go on sale in over 40 countries around the globe, thereby confirming its versatility. Together, the Scenic and Grand Scenic top their segment in Europe, with more than 400,000 units since the launch of the current generation toward the end of 2009, while almost 3.9 million units have been sold since the introduction of the original Scenic, back in 1996. To find out more about the new Scenic range, see the official Press Release after the jump.

Renault has just released the first images and info about the new Scenic and Grand Scenic “2012 Collection”, meaning the restyling of the two models that will enter the new year with a new design and more contents. The new Scenic line gets a completely re-designed front-end with new bumper and LED day lights, gloss black finishing and some chrome detail. A new range of wheel trims and aluminium alloys is now available, while the range gets two new body colours: Grenat Red and Majorelle Blue. As for the interior, more fabric upholsteries options and two new interior trims and have been added. Moreover, following the great success of the Bose Limited Edition for both Scenic and Grand Scenic in 2011, Renault decided to make it a fully fledged equipment level for both models in the coming year.

The engine range for the new Scenic range will be composed of a 1.6 dCi (110 hp), a 1.9 dCi (130 hp) dieselunits as well as brand new TCe petrol engine (115 hp) whose displacement hasn’t been revealed. All these units boast top-of-the-class fuel consumptions and CO2 emissions levels. the range will also be equipped with standard Stop-Start system and braking/deceleration energy recovery.

Scénic and Grand Scénic will be the first Renault models to feature the Visio System, which assists the driver’s vigilance and night-time vision thanks to two key functions: a lane departure warning system (a camera detects if the drivers strays out of lane and triggers an audible signal) and an automatic headlight function (the same camera detects the lights of nearby vehicles and/or the presence of street lighting to automatically switch from dipped to main beam, and vice versa).
