Is this unusual for this model?
| Compared with | What it says |
|---|---|
| Every car in the data | 3.2% of tests record it — this model is 2.0× that share |
| The 325 models compared | 61 of 325, highest first |
| The model's own record | 83,873 tests · every year of the Grand Scenic → |
A share of tests is not a probability for your car: it counts every Renault Grand Scenic tested, whatever its mileage, service history and use. The like-for-like comparison on the model page is the fairer number.
