    The demonstrators are on tour and were at my local Renault dealer today (8/6/23).
    Absolutely beautiful to look at in the metal., good access all round and very comfy seats – with great support / electric & heated too.
    A good layout ergonomically, though the gear selector is on a stalk on the steering wheel, above the indicator stalk.
    Beautiful to drive and real presence and a decent hybrid all round.
    I think the rrp against the AP ask is in line with the grew medium SUV hybrids (but much more that the kuga & the Sportage [when it was on the scheme] – albeit still a high AP for many
    but if you have the funds or can get a grant if it suits your needs all round.  Compared to the kadjar it is like chalk n cheese imho. I will go for an extended test drive when the local dealership gets its own demonstrators at the end of June. Renault U.K. / Renault Academy staff who are touring with the demonstrators – are saying orders made now will be July delivery & any in July will probably be sept / oct delivery
