The Renault 5 is the most exciting new car of 2024 - First Look detailed review

The Renault 5 is the most exciting new car of 2024 - first look detailed review. Following in the tyre treads of Fiat's 500 and the new Mini, Renault has waited 52 years to launch an all-new (all electric) vibrant and unashamedly French Renault 5 to the market. With two battery pack sizes, an EV range of up to 250 miles and styling that carefully weaves between retro and futuristique, the £22,000 (est) R5 builds on Renault's electric models that began some 10 years ago with the Zoe.
