Compare the Renault 5 E-Tech vs Renault 4 E-Tech
AI generated from our expert reviews
The Renault 4 E-Tech is longer than the Renault 5 E-Tech, can tow more, and provides a bigger boot alongside more room with the back seats folded. On the motorway, the Renault 4 is really comfortable and refined enough that wind and road noise never becomes a problem, whereas the Renault 5 has quite a bit of road roar from the tyres and wind rushing over the pillar ahead of you. On twisty roads, the Renault 5 is eager to turn into corners with quick steering and no body roll, but the Renault 4 never feels particularly fun. Coming to a smooth stop is a breeze in the Renault 5 with its easy-to-judge brakes, but a touch trickier in the Renault 4. Neither car is generous for adults in the back, where the Renault 5 leaves no real room for grown-ups and passengers in the Renault 4 will probably start feeling cramped on long journeys.
