Frequently asked questions
Is the XPENG G6 worth the extra £2,995 over the Renault Scenic?
The XPENG G6 costs £2,995 more than the Renault Scenic. For that premium it adds 232 kW faster peak rapid charging, 58 kW more power and a 1.0s quicker 0-62mph time. The Renault Scenic is not just cheaper - it also offers 100 miles more WLTP range. On EVcarsguide's combined category scores, the XPENG G6 comes out ahead overall.
Which is cheaper to own over 5 years, the Renault Scenic or the XPENG G6?
The Renault Scenic is £2,995 cheaper to buy. Running costs are almost identical - about £184 a year either way, at 8,000 miles on an off-peak home tariff. Add 5 years of charging and the Renault Scenic comes out roughly £3,035 cheaper overall. These figures cover list price and home charging only - insurance, servicing, tyres and depreciation will move the real total.
What are the Renault Scenic and XPENG G6 like on a long motorway trip?
EVcarsguide estimates a real-world motorway range of about 274 miles for the Renault Scenic and 193 miles for the XPENG G6 - both below their WLTP figures, because sustained high speed is the hardest case for an EV. The Renault Scenic goes roughly 81 miles further between charging stops. A rapid charge to 80% takes around 37 minutes in the Renault Scenic and 12 in the XPENG G6, so the XPENG G6 loses less time at each stop. So the Renault Scenic stops less often while the XPENG G6 stops for less time - pick on which you would rather do.
Which is easier to park and drive in town, the Renault Scenic or the XPENG G6?
The Renault Scenic is the easier car for tight UK car parks: it is 56 mm narrower than the XPENG G6. In a standard 2,400 mm bay that leaves about 536 mm of total clearance for the Renault Scenic and about 480 mm of total clearance for the XPENG G6. The Renault Scenic also turns in a 0.7 m tighter circle, which helps with U-turns and multi-storey ramps.
Which battery will hold up better as a used buy, the Renault Scenic or the XPENG G6?
Over a 8-year ownership window EVcarsguide's degradation model projects roughly 84% battery health for the Renault Scenic and 90% for the XPENG G6. That gives the XPENG G6 a modest edge in retained real-world range. The XPENG G6's LFP-type pack tolerates daily 100% charging, while the Renault Scenic's NMC-type pack lasts longest kept to about 80% for everyday use. Both batteries carry a 8-year manufacturer warranty.
