    Blocking out the sun while keeping the passenger compartment light and the temperature right isn’t easy with a traditional glass roof. But it’s not a problem in the recent Renault Rafale E-Tech full hybrid and Scenic E-Tech electric models, which come with an innovative panoramic roof that turns opaque or transparent, all the way or half the way, on request, and keeps the indoor temperature comfortable in summer as well as winter. This opacifying sunroof, Solarbay, is a joint development by Renault and Saint-Gobain Sekurit, and now a key feature in the “voitures à vivre” philosophy that the brand holds dear. Anne-Chloé Kort, Scenic E-Tech Electric Product Leader, and Gregory Launay, Rafale Product Performance Leader, tell us how Solarbay was designed to delight everyone in the car.
