On display for the first time at the 2007 Geneva Motor Show, Scénic Conquest is a car designed with leisure pursuits and the great outdoors in mind. Its bold styling resembles that of an off-roader. Its chassis has been adapted to suit a wide range of conditions – it has greater ground clearance than a standard Scénic and the suspension has been strengthened. Scénic Conquest is available with two powerplants, the 2.0 16V 135hp petrol engine and 1.9 dCi 130hp diesel (available with and without particulate filter). It features a high level of standard equipment, including rear parking proximity sensors, alloy wheels, ESP and longitudinal roof bars. Built in Renault’s Douai factory, Scénic Conquest goes on sale in June 2007, priced from €24,550 to €27,200. The orderbook will be open throughout the Renault dealer network in May 11th.
Adventurous looks
You couldn’t mistake Scénic Conquest for any other member of the Scénic range. At first glance, the extra ground clearance – raised by 20mm – is a clue to the car’s purpose. At the front, the lower part of the bumper has a protective black graphite coating while the radiator grille and air intake have been revised and a satin chrome-finish skidplate shields the engine. The headlights are distinguished by their dark lens covers. Scénic Conquest’s profile also reveals its fondness for off-road adventure: chunky rubbing strips protect the side bodywork, the wheel arch inners are coated in black graphite and it has robust door sill guards. Finished in chrome and black, the longitudinal roof bars are ideally suited to transporting outdoor leisure equipment. The aluminium alloy wheels add a touch of class and, at the rear, the black graphite bumper incorporates a satin chrome-coloured skidplate. There are ten different body colour options for Scénic Conquest and one of them – Cayenne Orange – is exclusive.
