New teaser image reveals show car “inspired by the world of video games”
Renault is paying tribute to the fastest version of its classic 5 supermini with a striking new electric concept. We do not yet know its name. We do not yet know its power. We do know it’ll look quite fantastic.
At least if these not-so-subtle teaser images are a good indication. To mark the 50th anniversary of the humble French hatch, the company looks set to release something mighty as a tribute “to its most legendary sports versions”.

“This spectacular 100 per cent electric reinterpretation inspired by the world of video games will combine outstanding exuberance with high-level performance,” says Renault.
