Say Goodbye to Car Arguments: The New Renault Scenic Guarantees Family Harmony or Your Money Back

Whatever you call it, you’ve almost certainly had a bust-up with your partner in the car – but the 'car-gument' could be about to become a thing of the past.

The research, providing insights into how different sexes respond to these triggers, found that 23% of women are irritated by poor navigation compared to 19% of men, while 20% of men are annoyed by poor driving skills compared to 19% of women. Despite this, 48% of men consider themselves better drivers than their partners, compared to just 32% of women. Additionally, 52% of men believe they are better at directions than their partners, versus 35% of women.

Key features improving moods, according to Brits, include comfortable seats (42%), a great sound system (26%), and ample space for everyone (26%). Environmental concerns also play a significant role, with 49% of Brits stating that a car’s sustainable credentials are important.

Renault's research led to its declaration that the Renault Scenic, voted Car of the Year by an international panel of fifty-eight judges from twenty-two countries in February, is the perfect family car. This claim is backed by launching Relationship Breakdown Cover, offering retail cash buyers their money back if they split before the end of 2024*.

Renault believes the Scenic meets the key criteria to alleviate major causes of car arguments**. Its spacious design includes an ingenious armrest that holds and charges devices, ensuring quiet kids. The car boasts 545 litres of boot space, Google Built-In for easy sat-nav use, a massaging driver’s seat, a Harman Kardon sound system, and the Solarbay® sunroof that changes opacity via voice commands.

For environmentally-conscious drivers, the Scenic's electric motors are near silent, delivering smooth power and zero tailpipe emissions, with a range of up to 379 miles for stress-free long journeys.
