The verdict

What's good

Five-star Euro NCAP 2023 — among the best safety scores in the family SUV class
Panoramic fixed glass roof is huge and available without a steep options premium
Comfort-focused suspension tuning absorbs long motorway stints without fatigue
Tech suite includes Google built-in natively, not via mirroring

What's not

270-mile range is below average for a family SUV at this price tier
FWD only at all trim levels — no AWD option in the lineup
Charging speed caps lower than Hyundai Ioniq 5 and VW ID.4 peers
Tall glasshouse raises wind noise at sustained motorway speeds

The engine

E-Tech

Single-Motor Electric (FWD)

A light, eager front-driven EV tuned for nimble city and B-road fun rather than straight-line drama, with instant low-speed torque suiting its compact hatchback character.

Built on the AmpR Small platform, a dedicated small-EV architecture derived from the Renault-Nissan Common Module Family, reviving the iconic Renault 5 nameplate as an electric car since 2024.

The reborn Renault 5 E-Tech offers up to roughly 248 miles (400 km) of WLTP range from its 52 kWh battery.
Both battery sizes use NMC (nickel-manganese-cobalt) chemistry.
It launched with a sub-25,000-euro base price, positioning the EV as an affordable, accessible electric car for Europe.
