Renault Scenic E-Tech Electric Outperforms Tesla Model Y In Range And Affordability

The Renault Scenic E-Tech 100% electric is making waves with its impressive range and competitive pricing, showcased through a clever digital billboard at a London charging station. The billboard displays an Auto Express article titled "New Renault Scenic embarrasses Tesla Model Y on price and range" and switches to playful messages when a Tesla driver approaches.

With a range of up to 379 miles (WLTP) on a single charge, the Scenic E-Tech 100% electric outperforms any variant of the Tesla Model Y by over 40 miles. Additionally, it is nearly £5,000 cheaper than the entry-level Model Y, starting from £37,495 OTR. This makes it an attractive option for those looking for an efficient and cost-effective electric vehicle.

Renault Beats Tesla in Range & Price

The campaign, developed with Publicis London, features a reactive billboard that changes its message when it detects a Tesla approaching. Phrases like "This is awkward", "Elon-ger", and "You’re probably good at other things" are displayed to catch the attention of Tesla drivers. This innovative approach aims to highlight the advantages of the Renault Scenic E-Tech 100% electric in a humorous way.

The billboard's playful nature will be shared on TikTok and Meta, ensuring that the cheeky messages reach a wider audience. This campaign not only promotes the Scenic E-Tech but also engages viewers with its creative execution.

The techno Long Range version of the Scenic E-Tech 100% electric can travel over 40 miles more than any Tesla Model Y variant on a single charge. It also offers nearly 100 miles more range than Tesla’s entry-level rear-wheel-drive version. Priced from £40,995 OTR, this model significantly undercuts the entry-level Model Y by almost £5,000.

The Scenic E-Tech 100% electric comes in two specifications: Comfort Range or Long Range. The Comfort Range model starts at £37,495 OTR and includes essential features for family travel. The Long Range version offers extended mileage for those needing longer trips without frequent charging stops.

Award-Winning Design

Since its announcement last year, the Renault Scenic E-Tech 100% electric has received numerous awards, including Car of the Year 2024. Lawrence Hamilton, Head of Marketing Communications at Renault UK, stated: "The Scenic is a true game-changer... This campaign is a great way to spread this message far and wide."

Designed with families in mind, the Renault Scenic E-Tech combines space, comfort, usability, and connectivity. It features a compact motor available in two power outputs (125kW/170hp or 160kW/220hp) and battery options (60kWh or 87kWh). The higher capacity battery offers up to 379 miles of range.
