2026 Renault Scenic E-Tech price and specs: French EV offers 600km+ range for under $60k

Renault Australia has confirmed pricing and specifications for the all-new Scenic E-Tech, coinciding with orders opening ahead of first deliveries commencing in December or January.

The 2026 Renault Scenic E-Tech arrives in three variants, priced from a relatively sharp $55,990 before on-roadcosts. It also debuts MyRenault app-based connected services for the French brand in Australia, part of a new-generation in-car operating system with Google Built-in.

It has been 15 years since the Scenic nameplate was last seen in the Australian market, when it was sold as a five- or seven-seat people mover. Today’s model is much more crossover-SUV in form factor.

Two battery options will be available depending on variant, including an 87kWh Long Range model which offers 625km of range. The cheapest Scenic E-Tech Long Range comes in at $59,990 plus on-road costs.

Key rivals for the Scenic E-Tech include the dimensionally larger Tesla Model Y, BYD Sealion 7, Skoda Elroq and Volkswagen ID.4. The smaller Renault Megane E-Tech could also be thrown in, priced from $54,990 drive-away.
