The Audi e-tron GT is a luxury, pure electric sporting grand tourer that feels properly extravagant and classy, despite being better value than the Porsche Taycan that it shares its platform with. Sure, the Taycan handles better and has an even finer interior finish, but the e-tron GT is still a truly excellent luxury car.
There’s nothing quite like the Renault Twizy, that’s for sure. With its strange, almost alien styling, tandem seating layout and – oh yes – no doors, this tiny electric car is really only suitable as an urban runabout. In that role, though, there’s little else to touch it – just as long as you’re willing to brave the elements.
The Koleos was Renault’s largest SUV, and a rival for some very talented cars. There’s a lot to like about it, not least its sleek looks, strong engines and relatively attractive used prices. It comes with a range of well-specced trims, although the lack of a seven-seat option is a baffling omission.
The last Renault Scenic is stylish both outside and in, and it’s as versatile as any of its mini-MPV rivals. But that style results in compromises in the way it drives, and given that it isn’t quite as spacious as its rivals either, it’s a difficult car to recommend.
The 2016 Renault Grand Scenic was the last of Renault's seven-seat MPVs to be sold in UK showrooms. It fought an unsuccessful rearguard action against the rise of the SUV, but while it may have lost that fight as a new car, it still has its place as a canny used buy. It's economical, practical, and striking to look at.
