Renault 5 E-Tech Electric: A Retro Revival for the Modern Age

Renault 5 E-Tech Electric

There’s something special about a car that can make you smile before you even step inside. The Renault 5 E-Tech Electric does exactly that. With its unmistakable retro-inspired design, modern electric powertrain, and a personality that stands out in the growing sea of EVs, this small hatchback is already making waves. It’s not just about nostalgia—it’s about practicality, affordability, and a fun driving experience that proves small electric cars can still have big character.

The return of the Renault 5 is more than just a tribute to the past. It has been completely reimagined for today’s world, combining classic styling cues with cutting-edge technology. The distinctive boxy shape remains, but sharper lines, LED lighting, and a playful front grille give it a fresh, contemporary appeal. While the old Renault 5 sipped fuel through the 1970s oil crisis, this new version runs purely on electricity, making it a perfect fit for the sustainable future of motoring.

Under the hood—or rather, beneath the floor—you’ll find a choice of two battery options. The base model, known as the E-Tech 120, is powered by a 40kWh battery, delivering a respectable range of up to 193 miles. Those looking for more distance on a charge will want the E-Tech 150, which ups the battery size to 52kWh and extends the range to 253 miles. While these figures are competitive in the small EV segment, real-world driving conditions, especially in colder weather, may bring those numbers down slightly. But for city dwellers and commuters, the range should be more than enough to handle daily driving without worry.

On the road, the Renault 5 E-Tech Electric is designed to be a comfortable, easy-to-drive urban companion. The steering is light and responsive, making it ideal for navigating tight city streets. Its 10.3-meter turning circle means squeezing into small parking spaces is a breeze. The ride is surprisingly smooth, even on the 18-inch wheels that come as standard. The Renault 5 feels solid, stable, and composed—a perfect balance between comfort and control.

Where this car truly shines is in its interior, where modern technology meets a driver-friendly layout. A 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system takes centre stage, with built-in Google-based navigation, voice control, and seamless smartphone connectivity. Renault has wisely kept physical buttons for climate controls, avoiding the frustration of touchscreen-only interfaces. The dashboard design is clean and stylish, with a mix of recycled materials giving it an eco-conscious touch. The five-door layout makes access easy, and the boot offers decent storage for a car in this class.

Charging is straightforward, with the smaller Urban Range model supporting 80kW fast charging, allowing for a 10-80% top-up in just over 30 minutes. The Comfort Range version charges slightly faster, meaning long journeys are far less of a hassle.

Starting at £22,995, the Renault 5 E-Tech Electric is one of the most affordable small EVs on the market. Even the top-spec Iconic Five trim remains under £30,000. Add to that Renault’s reputation for solid reliability, a three-year warranty, and eight years of battery coverage, and it’s clear this car is built to offer long-term value.

If you’re thinking about making the switch to electric but want a car that stands out from the crowd, the Renault 5 E-Tech Electric is a fantastic option. Its mix of charm, tech, and affordability makes it one of the most exciting EV launches of the year. And if you want to get your hands on one, Jaybee Motors in Banbury is the place to go.
