The Renault Scala Automatic CVT RxL is built on the same platform as the Nissan Sunny but offers a more refined and feature-rich package.

The X-Tronic CVT transmission is the highlight, offering smooth and seamless gear shifts, along with Sport and Low modes for enhanced driving experience. The interior is spacious, with generous rear seat legroom, comfortable seats, and a cavernous boot. The top-end RxZ variant comes with additional features like leather seats and upholstery.

Our take on this /// Verdict

The Renault Scala Automatic CVT RxL is a compelling option for those seeking a practical and efficient sedan for urban driving. The X-Tronic CVT transmission stands out for its smooth and jerk-free operation, making it ideal for navigating through Indias congested city roads. While it may not be the most thrilling drive when pushed hard, it excels in mild to moderate driving conditions, which is perfect for daily commutes. The addition of Sport and Low modes enhances its versatility, especially for overtaking and driving on hilly terrains. Overall, it offers a great balance of fuel efficiency, comfort, and convenience, making it a solid choice in the Rs 10 lakh segment.

Price

The Renault Scala Automatic CVT RxL is priced competitively in the Indian market. The ex-showroom price for this variant is estimated to be around Rs 8.70 lakh in Delhi. When you factor in the on-road costs, including taxes and registration fees, the price can go up to approximately Rs 10-11 lakh, depending on the state and local taxes. This pricing makes it a viable option compared to other automatic sedans in its segment, such as the Honda City AT and Hyundai Verna AT, which are priced higher. The premium of about Rs 80,000 to 90,000 over the manual version is justified by the convenience and efficiency the CVT transmission offers.

Latest Updates

Thursday, 21 November 2024 02:21 PM The Renault Scala Automatic CVT RxL, known for its comfortable ride and spacious cabin, has seen a significant price update as of November 2024. The ex-showroom price now ranges from Rs. 7,52,800 to Rs. 11,03,666, depending on the variant and location. This adjustment reflects the current market dynamics and consumer demand. I think this pricing makes it a competitive option in the sedan segment.

Wednesday, 19 July 2017 11:44 PM Renault India has stopped producing the Scala sedan, including the Automatic CVT RxL variant, as announced in July 2017. This decision was part of the companys strategy to focus on other models. The Scala was known for its dual airbags, ABS with EBD, and comfortable seating, but it felt outdated compared to its rivals. I believe this move was necessary to keep their lineup fresh and competitive.

Tuesday, 03 February 2015 10:55 PM Renault India issued a recall for the Scala, including the Automatic CVT RxL variant, in 2015 due to faulty airbag issues. This recall was part of a broader effort to ensure safety and reliability across their models. I believe such proactive measures build trust with consumers.

Monday, 16 June 2014 09:41 AM In 2014, Renault India relaunched the Scala Travelogue Edition, which included the RxL and RxZ trims. This special edition was aimed at enhancing sales and offered additional features to attract buyers. The Travelogue Edition started at Rs. 8,47,866 (ex-showroom, Delhi) and was a strategic move to boost the models appeal. I think such special editions can be a great way to keep a model relevant.

Mileage

Thursday, 21 November 2024 06:25 AM The Renault Scala Automatic CVT RxL boasts an impressive mileage, which is a significant factor for many Indian buyers. With an ARAI-certified fuel efficiency of 17.97 kmpl, it outperforms its manual counterpart and even some of its competitors. This high mileage is due to the CVTs ability to keep the engine in the most efficient part of the power band, reducing mechanical drag and optimizing fuel consumption. This makes the Scala CVT an attractive choice for those concerned about running costs and fuel efficiency.
