The Renault 5 E-Tech Electric has added another prestigious award to its collection, being named the ‘One to Watch’ at the 2024 Business Car Awards.
Set to launch in the UK in early 2025, this fully electric hatchback has been praised for its iconic design and advanced powertrain. The Renault 5 E-Tech Electric promises a unique blend of driver engagement, practicality, and fun, making it a standout in the small electric vehicle market.
On awarding this latest honour, Business Car Magazine Editor Martyn Collins said:
“In simple terms, the Renault 5 is a B-segment replacement for the Zoe. However, it’s much more than that - it’s the latest in a series of iconic Renault models reworked for the future. On sale next year, it’s sure to challenge the Mini Cooper Electric, with a choice of 40kWh and 52kWh battery packs, and prices expected to start under £25,000.”
Justin Costello, Renault Group’s Head of Fleet, said:
“Even before going on sale, the Renault 5 E-Tech 100% electric is rapidly accumulating an enviable array of awards. This latest title shows that the appeal is universal, across both retail and fleet customers, and the judges have recognised that many of the qualities that make the Renault 5 E-Tech 100% electric such a hotly-anticipated new model are helping it find favour in a wider marketplace.”
Staying true to the 2021 concept car, the Renault 5 E-Tech Electric combines the classic style of the original with modern innovations. Built on the all-electric AmpR platform, it offers agile handling and cutting-edge technology. With a driving range of up to 248 miles on a single charge (pending WLTP certification), the Renault 5 E-Tech Electric is expected to hit UK roads in Q1 2025.
