Renault 5 Electric 2025: Unbeatable price, retro design & up to 412 km range

“Renault is about to electrify not only its fleet, but its legacy,” declared a company spokesperson at the launch of the new Renault 5 Electric.

With a base price of €26,784, this model is one of the most affordable in the fiercely competitive EV market. Notably, it has already topped sales charts in France within its first few months.

But there’s more to its success than price. Its retro-inspired design, a tribute to the classic 1970s Renault 5, meets forward-thinking technology built for today’s demanding drivers. More than just a stylish revival, this is a 100% electric car with a WLTP range of up to 412 km – making it a true champion for both city and intercity journeys.

Retro spirit, electric heart

It’s hard not to be charmed by its rounded lines, pupil-style LED headlights, and colour palette that nods to a bygone era. Yet modernity defines every curve: from the wheel arches to the sleek front grille, every element is engineered for aerodynamics and reduced energy consumption.

Inside, innovation takes the lead. The dashboard includes a multimedia display of up to 10.1 inches, compatible with Google and apps like Spotify or Waze. Eco-conscious design is evident too, with recycled materials and sustainable textiles reinforcing Renault’s green commitment.

Renault 5 Electric versions & pricing for every driver

Renault offers three versions of the Renault 5 Electric, each tailored with different power outputs, battery capacities, and equipment:

• Evolution (90 kW, 40 kWh): From €26,784 – Range: 312 km
• Techno (90 or 110 kW, up to 52 kWh): From €28,704 – Max range: 412 km
• Iconic Cinq (90 or 110 kW): From €30,624 – Premium design & finish

All models are available through financing from as little as €241/month, making the electric experience more accessible without breaking the bank.

Up to 412 km range without the worry

WLTP figures place the Renault 5 Electric among the top contenders in its class. Two battery options, 40 kWh and 52 kWh, offer either up to 312 km for urban driving or up to 412 km for longer journeys. Thanks to its low consumption (14.5 to 15.1 kWh/100 km), each charge is used efficiently.

Technology that powers the experience

Connectivity is another strong point. The OpenR Link system lets users personalise their digital environment with continuous updates. Helpful features like the rear-view camera, automatic parking and voice assistant compatibility make this EV feel like an extension of your home.
