Video Summary
Here's a summary of the YouTube video review of the electric Renault 5:The new Renault 5 aims to provide stylish, versatile, and affordable motoring. It's bigger than the original model and has improved safety provisions. While not the first small electric car, it stands out for many reasons.
Regarding the interior, the car features two rectangular digital displays. The entry-level trim has a 7-inch display, while the Techno and Iconic Five trims have a 10.3-inch screen. Steering wheel placement might obstruct the view of the driver display for some. The touchscreen infotainment system is 10.1 inches in size across all versions and is angled towards the driver. The operating system is user-friendly. The car includes physical buttons for climate control.
Interior quality includes some hard plastics, but it mostly has a plush look. A denim-like material made from recycled bottles is used on the seats of the upper trims. Adjustable lumbar support is available on the top trim.
It can store four carry-on suitcases and additional space is under the boot floor. There is a drop-down from the boot lip to the floor. A height-adjustable boot floor is unavailable. The rear seats fold down.
There are two electric motor and battery options, with differing power and range. The slower Renault 5 covers 0-62 mph in 9 seconds, while the faster does it in 7.9 seconds.
It performs well around town because of its small turning circle. In addition to being well-priced, the car's electric braking system makes smooth stops. However, the real-world range is below the advertised range. The car rides on 18-inch alloy wheels. It handles poor road conditions very well. It is comparatively quiet while driving on the motorway and can offer a composed ride on smaller country roads.
Automatic emergency braking, driver attention monitoring, and lane-keeping assistance are standard. Blind spot monitoring is added in Iconic Five trim. It earned a four-star Euro NCAP rating.
Overall, the generous equipment, its nice interior, great electric performance, and excellent price all make the Renault 5 an appealing choice.
