Why should you consider the Renault 5 E-Tech?
The Renault 5 is a stylish, compact electric car that blends retro design with modern features like Google’s Android Automotive OS. It offers a fun, agile drive and practical tech inside a nostalgic yet updated cabin.
Ideal as a city runabout for one or two, it has limited rear space but a surprisingly large 326-liter boot. Two battery options provide 190 or 252 miles of range, competitive with similar small EVs.
Driving the 5 is enjoyable with sharp handling and balanced suspension, making it great for city streets, highways, and winding roads. Overall, it’s a fun, practical EV with strong retro appeal.
Lease a Renault 5 E-Tech from £222 per month*
You can lease a Renault 5 E-Tech Evolution from £222 per month (initial payment: £2,345.91) on a 48-month, 8,000-mile-per-year deal. It offers a 40kWh battery with up to 192 miles of range. Standard kit includes cruise control, a 10.1-inch central touchscreen multimedia system with Apple Carplay and Android Auto, and 18-inch wheels.
If you prefer to buy a Renault 5 E-Tech, you can currently save up to £2,584, at the time of writing, on the top-spec Roland Garros model which comes with 252 miles of range.
