Renault Scenicassembly in France
The fifth-generation Scenic E-Tech electric, due to go on sale shortly, is produced in Douai France, the site where it was born in 1996, 34 years ago. Who better to talk about the evolution of this iconic model and the plant where it is made than Franck Lucas, Unit Manager, who is celebrating 41 years of service at the site this year. Franck has been involved in the production of every generation of Scenic since its inception and has witnessed the technological advances from one iteration to the next, as well as the improvements made to workstations and manufacturing methods within the plant. Let Franck tell you about the evolution of one of Renault's French industrial flagships, where its team spirit remains as intact as it was in the early days

Franck still remembers the first Scenic parts he worked on, the doors. He immediately realised that Renault had made a giant leap forward with this new model, with a spacious interior that was totally innovative for the time. As such, the Douai site itself had to evolve to match the ambitions of the model. In addition to the installation of new robots, all the operating methods were redesigned, particularly the ergonomics of the workstation which allows greater freedom of movement for the operators. For the arrival of the second generation of Scenic in 2003, further improvements were made, such as the semi-automation of the cockpit installation, which reduced the physical load required to fit it. In 2009, the third generation, which dropped the Megane name to become a model in its own right, saw the arrival of swing assembly lines, where vehicles could be raised and lowered to suit assembly operations, a fantastic innovation for operators. The fourth generation made its appearance in 2016, and with it the digitalisation of production lines. Vehicles and parts are now permanently connected to the factory, enabling much better monitoring of the supply chain.
