Well, after a wait of over 2 months since ordering my Symbioz Techno Esprit Alpine (Flame Red) I picked my new car up from the dealers on Tuesday (22nd April).
Being of an older age I have had been fortunate to have owned 15 vehicles in my driving life, 6 (including the Symbioz) being Renaults (1 Espace and 4 Scenics). I must admit that I am very impressed so far with the Symbioz, it has met all of my expectations and is a delight to drive.
I purchased a car manual through e-bay and have read it cover to cover, watched all of the on-line reviews and Renault video tutorials and looked at the Renault on-line manuals before I took delivery.
I discovered this forum by chance just before I took delivery of my Symbioz and have found the content to be interesting. To date since ordering my Symbioz I have not seen another one on the road but I expect that it will become popular due to its appearance and pricing.
Here's to happy and trouble free motoring.
Proud owner of a Symbioz!
Welcome to the forum. My Iconic Symbioz is 6 months old and after 5,0,00 miles I am also happy. A few software issues some of which are ongoing but I'm getting there. It's great to drive and is extremely comfortable. Enjoy your new car.

Hi all, had my Symbioz now for a week now and overall impressed with the car but as mentioned the revs seems high in certain instances. Also the Infotainment elements take a while to get use to.
A couple of queries though. I seem to be having an issue reading the QR codes from the Infotainment screen and has anyone noticed Renault have created an Avatar named Reno but it doesn't seem to be available on the UK Symbioz. I have only covered local journeys but getting an average of 53mpg which I assumed is great. Like others have said you don't see many Symbioz about if any.
Thoroughly enjoying the Car.

As mentioned previously concerning the Reno Avatar assistant, I have just checked the Google App store on the car and it says that the Reno App is installed but I cannot locate it in the settings.
Any ideas?

I was confused initally by "Reno" and thinking this was "Renault App" (as pronounced similarly) - however on googling seems this avatar is something they've brought out for the models 4 and 5 (not others?) and not the UK? Might be old info from Renault website however....?Crossfire333 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 05, 2025 9:15 am As mentioned previously concerning the Reno Avatar assistant, I have just checked the Google App store on the car and it says that the Reno App is installed but I cannot locate it in the settings.

AS AN ASIDE..
Whilst googling I came across this 2025 review from What Car - who gave the Symbioz 2/5

This is appaling and an affront to honest journalism - let's boycott !!
