New Batteries and Longer Range
Under the skin, the Scenic E-Tech borrows the LFP battery introduced by the Megane E-Tech during its mid-lifecycle update, combined with a carryover front-mounted electric motor producing 220 hp (164 kW / 223 PS).
The 67 kWh Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery of the Comfort Range variant has a cell-to-pack architecture and delivers up to 467 km (290 miles) of WLTP range, which is 37 km (23 miles) more than its NMC predecessor.
It supports 165 kW fast charging, taking it from 15-80% in 24 minutes, or 25% faster than before.
The larger 89 kWh Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC) battery pack, exclusive to the Scenic E-Tech Long Range, has also been upgraded, gaining 2 kWh in capacity and stretching the WLTP range by 17 km (11 miles) to 642 km (399 miles).
This unit is compatible with 150 kW fast charging, replenishing 15-80% in 28 minutes.
