On May 19, Agneta Dahlgren, Head of Design for the Kadjar range, the new M\u00e9gane, the new Sc\u00e9nic and Electric Vehicles, was named Woman of the Year 2016 by the independent organisation Women And Vehicles in Europe (WAVE).<\/p>\n

During the design of the new Sc\u00e9nic, Agneta worked alongside J\u00e9r\u00e9mie Sommer (exterior design) and Maxime Pinol (interior design) and is particularly proud to have succeeded in breaking away from traditional compact MPV cues:\u00a0\u00abIt\u2019s not because you\u2019re a mother or a father that you don\u2019t want to travel in a family car that is sexy\u00bb, she smiles. By singling out Agneta Dahlgren, Groupe Renault\u2019s Head of Design for C-Segment and Electric Vehicles, the panel \u2013 in keeping with the organisation\u2019s objectives \u2013 wished to highlight the career of a woman who can serve as a role model for young women seeking work in the automobile industry, and whose position is key to her company and to the automobile industry as a whole.<\/p>\n<\/div>

New Sc\u00e9nic Product Manager C\u00e9cile Sobole also played a key part in the new Sc\u00e9nic\u2019s design. \u00abThe new Sc\u00e9nic is an even more desirable car than its predecessor. All its occupants enjoy a status-enhancing experience. The aim was to produce a model that is in tune with today\u2019s age and adapted to the lives of modern families. Examples of this include the new aviation-style folding tables for rear passengers and the rear seats which can be folded automatically to form an all-flat floor\u00bb.<\/p>\n<\/div>

The new Sc\u00e9nic\u2019s Programme Director Irina Zaretskaya stressed the importance of safety and comfort for families:\u00a0\u00abThe structure of the new Sc\u00e9nic\u2019s seats is the same as that used for the new Espace\u2019s seats, and we have also carried over the crossmember-free panoramic glass roof which makes sure that front and rear occupants alike benefit from a bright cabin. In terms of safety, the new Sc\u00e9nic comes with a suite of 10 or so driver aids, including Active Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection which, for the first time in the segment, is standard equipment for all versions\u00bb.<\/p>\n<\/div>
