We present a new relaxation approximation to scalar conservation laws in several space variables by means of semilinear hyperbolic systems of equations with a finite number of velocities. Under a suitable multidimensional generalization of the Whitham relaxation subcharacteristic condition, we show the convergence of the approximated solutions to the unique entropy solution of the equilibrium Cauchy problem.
