Meet the all-new Renault 5!

It’s a futuristic yet retro-looking new electric car that follows on from the original Renault 5 which went out of production back in 1996. The question is, will this all-new small EV offer enough to catch your attention over its key competitors?

Well when it comes to the design, the new Renault 5 is a real looker! There are a whole load of design cues that hark back to the original car, from the square-shaped headlights & fog lights, through to the tail lights that are in the same shape as on the original car. The door design also mimics the old car, although there are a few all-new features, including the option to have a two-tone coloured roof. All-in-all, we think it looks great!

Step inside and the new Renault 5 comes with a really smart interior. There’s a joint digital dial & infotainment screen, and there are denim-effect materials on the seats, the dash and the doors! Sure there are some scratchy plastics to be found, and the storage isn’t the best, but what do you expect from a small car? Oh, and of course, don’t forget the baguette holder…

The Renault 5 comes with two battery options - a 40kWh battery that has a range of up to 186 miles, and a 52kWh battery with a range of up to 249 miles. There are also three motor options, with the entry-level delivering 95hp, while the range-topper puts down 150hp.

The Renault 5 starts from just £22,000 - so is it worth it?! Stick with Mat and find out for yourself!
