Test drove today (only one in Aus I think). Was interested in the car. Coming from a 2020 leaf. Would’ve been a nice upgrade but I think the Aus market for Renault is very much an afterthought, they will not be selling many here :( Many negatives to be aware about:

• $69,690 drive away price 😐
• No Android Automotive OS
• No google maps or any navigation built in
• App doesn’t work yet
• Communication module is only for 3g, (about to be disconnected in Aus from end December 2023), dealer can’t guarantee it will function after that or will be upgraded.
• Wireless android auto was tricky to setup. car software is pretty bad.
• No one-pedal-driving option
• No power seats
• Servicing is predicted to be $400 every 12 months.
• Rear boot space feels way smaller and less functional than the leaf. The false floor/compartments make it less usable.
• Rear passenger space very cramped. Ok for small adults, but no taller than 180cm. also foot space is very poor.
• No auto rear hatch.

Positives.

• Drives nice (leaf is better/smoother because of one-pedal-driving though)
• Efficient ~13kw/100km. Summer.
• Looks nice

I think my Volvo ex30 order will be locked in instead.
