1991 Renault Scenic by Coggiola

With Scenic, Renault created the compact MPV, revolutionizing the industry with another new vehicle category. This concept car was a technological showcase, a design study aimed at producing a 21st-century family vehicle embodying Renault's idea of the "car for life and living." The "invitation to travel" theme was thoroughly developed in this cocoon-like vehicle through form, color, and trim and its functional innovations and safety features.

Features

• Revolutionary exterior architecture: the first compact MPV

• The absence of a center pillar means the two right-side doors form a single opening, sliding towards each other to offer easy access to the cabin, delivering new levels of space, warmth, and comfort

• Single sliding door on driver's side, which gives Scenic previously unattained stiffness and strength, particularly in the event of lateral impact

• Double floor housing chassis and two stowages hold extra luggage, accessible via opening both inside and outside the car

• Optimized use of recyclable materials

• Seat-mounted safety belts, two child safety restraints, driver airbag, and drowsiness detector for unbeatable safety performance

• Automatic door locking and micro-cameras for rear-view vision

• ABS coupled to an automatic transmission and automatic tire pressure monitoring

• Power steering, four-wheel drive, and automatic load leveling system at the rear for a safe, easy and comfortable drive every time

• 150bhp 2.0-litre multivalve engine

• Automatic transmission controlled by keyboard replacing conventional gear lever
