Detailed analysis of the Renault Grand Scénic Expression 1.6 16v 110 7 plazas · 110 CV (2012)
General description
The 2012 Renault Grand Scénic Expression 1.6 16v 110 7-seater is a minivan designed for families, offering a balance between space, comfort, and a gasoline engine that, while not the most powerful, meets expectations for daily use and family trips. Its seven-seat configuration makes it a practical option for those who need to transport several people.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel of the Grand Scénic, the feeling is one of comfort and ease of handling. The electric power steering, sensitive to speed, contributes to a smooth drive, ideal for city and long journeys. The 110 hp engine, while not offering dazzling acceleration (12.6 seconds from 0 to 100 km/h), is sufficient to move the vehicle with agility, although it may feel a bit strained when fully loaded. The suspension, McPherson type at the front and trailing arm with torsional element at the rear, is comfort-oriented, absorbing road irregularities well. The ventilated front disc brakes and rear disc brakes offer adequate response. The combined consumption of 7.7 l/100km is reasonable for its size and engine.
Design and aesthetics
The design of the 2012 Renault Grand Scénic maintains the characteristic lines of the brand's minivans, with a functional aesthetic designed to maximize interior space. Its 4573 mm length, 1845 mm width, and 1645 mm height give it a robust yet elegant presence. The five doors facilitate access to all seats, and its exterior design, while not groundbreaking, is pleasant and timeless. The interior is designed for versatility, with a seven-seat configuration that allows adapting the space according to cargo or passenger needs. The trunk, with a capacity of 564 to 702 liters, is generous and very practical for daily use or trips.
Technology and features
In terms of technology, the 2012 Grand Scénic Expression incorporates elements that, for its time, were standard and functional. The 1.6-liter 110 hp gasoline engine with indirect injection and an aluminum cylinder head, along with an iron block, is a proven mechanical setup. The 6-speed manual transmission allows for efficient control of consumption and performance. Although it lacks advanced systems like Stop&Start in this version, its technology focuses on reliability and functionality. The electric power steering, sensitive to speed, is a highlight for driving comfort.
Competition
In the segment of seven-seater minivans, the Renault Grand Scénic competes with models such as the Citroën Grand C4 Picasso, the Ford Grand C-MAX, or the Opel Zafira Tourer. Compared to them, the Grand Scénic stands out for its balance between comfort, interior space, and a competitive price. Its 110 hp gasoline engine is in the average for its category, offering adequate performance for family use. The versatility of its seats and the capacity of its trunk are strong points that keep it an attractive option in its segment.
Conclusion
The 2012 Renault Grand Scénic Expression 1.6 16v 110 7-seater is a very competent family minivan. It offers generous and versatile interior space, ideal for large families or those who need a large cargo capacity. Its gasoline engine, while not a marvel of power, more than meets the requirements for daily use and trips, maintaining reasonable consumption. Its functional design and focus on comfort make it a practical and reliable option for everyday life. It is a car that, without great fanfare, delivers on its promise: to be a faithful companion for family life.
