Rocket Car for Rod

I have mentioned a few times our “Rocket Car” from Renault. It is a brand new Scenic, and it has many upgrades that we did not request, but we have enjoyed them.

It has a sunroof that runs nearly the length of the car. Collision avoidance, adaptive cruise control, automatic speed limit sign sensing.

The center console has a tablet control that does navigation, audio, phone, and all sorts of other things. It is a bit complicated, and you would definitely crash if you fiddled with this much while driving.

It is very hard to see, but the central dash has a heads-up display that shows current speed, speed limit, next turn, distance been you and the next car. It is hard to see in the photo, but works very nicely. This is a diesel model with a 6 speed manual transmission. It is very fuel stingy which is a very good thing in Europe where the fuel prices are much higher than the U.S.
