About the Renault 5 E-Tech

The Renault 5 E-Tech is one of the most anticipated electric cars in years, reviving the iconic Renault 5 nameplate with a thoroughly modern electric platform. Its retro-inspired design, developed from a show-stopping concept car, translates remarkably well to production with minimal compromise.

Built on the new AmpR Small platform (formerly CMF-B EV), it is available with 40 kWh and 52 kWh battery options. The smaller pack targets urban drivers with up to 186 miles WLTP range, while the larger battery stretches to 253 miles. DC charging at up to 100 kW is respectable for a car of this size, with a 10-80% charge taking around 30 minutes.

The interior embraces the retro theme with playful design touches while incorporating modern technology through a clean digital display and intuitive infotainment. The driving experience is characterful and engaging, with nimble handling, light steering, and a peppy motor that suits city driving perfectly. At under 1,500 kg, it feels genuinely agile rather than merely adequate.

Priced to compete with the Peugeot e-208, Fiat 500e, and Mini Cooper Electric, the Renault 5 E-Tech brings personality and charm to a segment that often prioritises specification over soul. It is precisely the kind of affordable, desirable EV that the mass market has been waiting for.

What the press thinks

A joyful and characterful small EV that delivers on the promise of its concept car. Reviewers are charmed by the design, impressed by the value, and pleased with the driving experience. Minor criticisms include modest DC charging speed and the fact that the highest-spec versions push into the territory of larger EVs on price.
