In the frontal offset test, protection of all critical body areas was either good or adequate, for both dummies. In the side impact, protection was good. The front passenger airbag can be disabled to allow a rearward-facing restraint to be used in that seating position. Clear information is provided to the driver regarding the status of the airbag and the system was rewarded. All child restraints for which the Scenic is designed could be properly installed and accommodated, although care is needed with forward-facing group 1 and 2 seats in the front passenger seat, as the user manual is unclear.

The bonnet provided predominantly adequate head protection with some poor results along the front edge of the windscreen and on the stiff windscreen pillars. Protection provided to the pelvis was mixed, ranging from weak to good, but the protection provided by the bumper to pedestrians' legs was good at all points tested. An autonomous emergency braking system capable of detecting pedestrians is standard equipment and tests showed adequate performance, with some impacts being avoided or mitigated.

The Scenic has a seatbelt reminder system as standard, covering the front and rear seats. The autonomous emergency braking system works at highway speeds and performed adequately in Euro NCAP's tests. A speed assistance system recognises the speed limit and allows the driver to set the limiter to that speed.

The passenger compartment of the Scenic remained stable in the frontal offset test. Dummy readings showed good protection of the knees and femurs of the driver and passenger. Renault showed that a similar level of protection would be provided for occupants of different sizes and to those sat in different positions. In the full width rigid barrier test, protection of the front seat driver was good, apart from the neck, protection of which was rated as poor, based on dummy readings. Renault reported that the high bending moments seen in the test were well above expectations and that a modification will be implemented to ensure the design performance is achieved. Chest protection of the rear seat passenger was rated as marginal. In the side impact barrier test the Scenic scored maximum points with good protection of all critical body regions. In the more severe side pole impact, the car provided good protection to all body regions except the chest, protection of which was adequate. Tests showed that the whiplash protection provided by the front seats and head restraints was good in the event of a rear end collision and a geometric assessment of the rear seats indicated good protection there also. Increased whiplash protection is provided by an autonomous emergency braking system. The system performed well in tests at the low speeds typical of city driving at which many whiplash accidents occur.
