It feels like an age since Renault unveiled its electric 5 concept car back in 2021, but the French company has finally taken the wraps off a production model. However, you won’t see it hit European roads until early next year.
Unveiled at a much smaller and more intimate Geneva Motor Show than we are used to, Renault wheeled out a production-ready EV that has stayed true to the original 2021 concept (95% faithful, according to the brand), itself borrowing styling elements from the plucky hatchback that sold some 5.5 million units between 1972 and 1985, but fusing it with the latest in electrical architecture and underpinnings.
