Potential New Owner

[craiglincoln]

Hi everyone,

I'm thinking of leasing a Symbioz Techno (base variant). Does anyone own one already? A lot of the reviews I can find are from people reviewing the higher two variants and I'm getting a little concerned that people might not be buying the Techno variant for a reason (not sure what that might be). Is the Symbioz Techno a decent car for high mileage driving?

I understand the Techno doesn't come with the powered boot, heated seats/ steering wheel, 360 camera but are there any other key drawbacks?

I'm also reading a lot about high engine noise due to high revs, is there anything to that I should be worried about?

Thanks for your help in advance

Check out reviews in the motoring press. The high revs thing is a problem for some. It requires a learning curve to adapt to. Steep, long climbs are more difficult to deal with. You need to ease off the throttle momentarily to encourage the gearbox to change up. Check out other Renault hybrid models with the same running gear.
