Renault Vel Satis Hatchback boot space, practicality and safety

2002 - 2004 (change model)
Practicality rating: 3 out of 53.0

Written by Parkers Published: 6 June 2019 Updated: 6 June 2019

Renault really has this safety thing sorted – it scores a top five-stars in the Euro NCAP crash test and features all the safety equipment you could need. A high level of security measures are also featured.

That curious rear end provides a boot with plenty of space and easy access. MPV-like dimensions mean that space is in abundance within the cabin. There are loads of little cubby holes to lose, sorry store, all kinds of trinkets, from under-seat boxes to a coin tray hidden behind the dash “wood” veneer.
