Giorgio Giugiaro said something like "A five year old can design a Ferrari. The challenge is making a car that costs nothing and still looks good and performs well". I think Renault nailed with the R5 what Fiat once did with the Fiat Panda. Well done!
Giugiaro also nailed the design of the original VW Golf (and Scirocco), just like Gandini did with the Supercinq in 1984. BTW, contrary to what is said in the video, the Supercinq isn't a facelift of the original R5 (transverse engine, different platform and suspension setup).
@@chucku00 The Supercinq is the second generation.
@uiPineappleExpress Yup, and it's totally distinct from the first generation on a technical standpoint except some engines (Cléon fonte engines family) that have been modified for a transverse implantation. If the Supercinq was only a facelift, many spare parts would have been interchangeable which isn't the case. The Supercinq shares a lot more spare parts with the R9/R11 (US Renault Alliance/Encore) models than with the original R5.
@@chucku00 Yup and good to see that the new gen.3 also has some styling from the second gen.
I live in france And this car has got everyone talking about it lol
Me too, autre français ici 😂, and yeah I've shown it to my family, friends and they all seem to love it. And seeing cars from Renault 6 years ago makes you realise how much of a step-up this brand has been subject of since the arrival of Gilles Vidal as lead designer! I'm really excited for the upcoming Alpine A290 and Renault 4 coming this year.
@@midnight_driver71la R4 va être un miteux SUV, rien d’excitant…
Tiens tiens
@@MoJo-2977 J'attends de voir, ça sera toujours mieux qu'un Captur 😆
@@midnight_driver71 Besides Gilles Vidal, Luca de Meo is a fantastic CEO for Renault with a product-centric vision :)
It was de Meo who saw the original unpublished ECHO concept gathering dust in a storage room and decided to put it into production. The Vidal team managed to do it in less than 4 years with this R5. Wow.
Beautiful design.
My memory of the Renault 5 is quite unique. I was stationed on a US Navy vessel in the late 80s and we docked in Marseille. Another Navy vessel was on the pier directly behind us. When it was time for both of us to leave, the ship astern weighed (raised) its anchor and a Renault 5 came up with the anchor. Only in Marseille.
I lived in Marseille for 14 years and yeah, i can confirm this is the type of things that happen there
😂 didn't expect the end
The best small car reinterpretation since the 2001 Mini and the Fiat 500! Wow! Even the seat design, as well as the fabric styles in the interior match to the 70ies/80ies.
My yellow Le Car made multiple trips across Canada, drafting behind semis. The vinyl roll back roof was so much fun. Truly the best, most fun car I ever owned. Good for Renault.
Such a neat design. If only they’d bright it back here. I wish Volvo would bring back the c30 and make it an EV too. I miss the abundance of hatchbacks and coupes we had here in the US
Seriously, seeing all the incredible cars getting pumped out in Europe makes me insanely jealous that all we'll get is bigger and bigger stupid trucks here in the states
Ummm Volvo has the EX30 so that might be what you looking for.
The EX30 is the C30 for the electric future that Volvo is creating.
@@TayoAAdetolaexactly
@@RiffleVFXportfolioWould you buy it if it came to the US?
3307 lb = 1500 kg so the very specific number is probably a metric conversion.
For more power you need to wait for the alpine 290, Wich is the sport version of the Renault 5. Up to 250hp
I wish Renault would come back to America. Their designs are so interesting
I KNEW you were gonna have a field day the second I saw the design. Awesome car.
I agree, this R5 is a design masterpiece.
It has multi-link rear suspension, so it seems like there might be a dual motor version in the future
For sure.
Here in Mexico people used to call it "zapatito" wich stands for little shoe, this because of it's shape
Absolutely stunning. This is one of those desirable cars that everyone wants irrespective of their economic situation.
Both my parents had an r5 when they met, although my dad had a Turbo, which he sadly sold 😭, if this would’ve launched just a couple weeks earlier we wouldn’t have the new JCW Mini Cooper Electric on order
As a French, it's nice to see someone FINALLY pronouncing right (most) of the French names that you've said!! Good job. Lots of research I'm sure haha
Finally you talk about a Renault car
GILLES VIDAL is creating a stunning references now.....from peugeut to renault this man is a absolute genious. bravo monsieur Vidal.
Little correction : the all-time best-selling car in France is the Peugeot 206 (8.6 millions cars).
The Renault 5 is still on the top list and comes… 5th (5.6 million cars)
it depend what you mean by Renault 5, if you accumulat the sales of 2 previous generations it's 9 milions
@@studiomoris4542 Yes, I’ll admit that even here in France it’s not totally clear if the Super 5 model and original R5 model should be considered as a whole or two separate car models. Kinda like the VW Beetle and the New Beetle…
And the question will rise once more with this R5volution model.
Alpine will be making a hot version of this and I believe design will draw more inspiration from the R5 Turbo. Me likey!
The teaser ad campaign alone, with Daft Punk's "Instant crush" soundtrack, is worth writing a check for it
FYI the Renault Scenic (a crossover EV for families) just won "The Car of the Year 2024" European award a few days ago, the same day the Renault 5 was officially presented at the Geneva Motor Show. Renault is on a roll!
as a french man.....i m proud of this heritage. franch invented the electro music the french - touch.....and they have their own design touch so SYMPATIQUE ET MIGNON. of corse not the french cars are beautiful but some brands as renault...citroen....alpine...etc has created the history of europeen automotive emotion. yeh dude too much emotion in this new R5. in the beguining i didn t like it the same with the peugeot 308 gti....but at the end i realised that this little ev is a future REFERENCE IN THE DESIGN SCHOOLS. this new retro reborn is a real little REVOLUTION. the new R5 ALPINE is even better and better. i ll keep alive my megane RS TROPHY to buy also an Alpine. i have a great passion for RENAULT SPORT..................THAT S HISTORY MAN.
Wrong images of the interior and rear end. Most of the design of the R5 E-Tech interior and rear end is inspired in the original R5 and R5 Turbo, not in the Renault “Supercinq”/5 "facelift" (a second generation on a different platform rather than a facelift).
This got me reminded of the original Mini, and BMW's revived New Mini. Could you do a video about how BMW transitioned the Mini design into the modern era? It's one of the most unique, and best retro-design modern car.
It still looks pleasing to look at today.
my father had an R8 GORDINI in blue. i still remember this emotional sporty box of metal. what a car . it was our allie in every step. the rear places are so hot because of the engine when we go to the beach i stik there like a burned paper . but it was woow.........
My Zoe with ONLY 89cv put most of ice Cars stopped in traffic lights... The less R5 motor power is the same, but with a doble batterie than my old car.
The most produced French car is the Renault 4 (8 million units), the sales numbers of the Renault 5 are 5 million units(not taking into account the Supercinq which is very different technically from the original Renault 5 except the design, the Supercinq is NOT a facelifted R5 but a totally different car that is closer to a R9/R11 (Alliance/Encore)).
Nice looking little car that's also an EV !
So glad you cover up french cars
An American knowing la R5 😊. You may see some in Mexico. I don't think they will bring to Nissan Mitsubishi resailers. From 🇨🇵
I think he's Swedish, no?
I'm from the US and unfortunately, small cars aren't popular, though we do have some (i have a gti).
MK1 mid-engined Turbo mk2 1&2 bulges, Gordini 3 spoke wheel homage, GT turbo front spoiler etc. Fantastique effort. I declare ownership of a MK2 GT turbo, so big nostalgia for me.
I think I want one.
All the constraints because of regulations (🔌 motorization), crash tests etc & they still managed to pull it off. 🤯 This quality of design
+ engineering will always get my respect.
They are going to sell it like 🥐 & will upgrade it continuously, a bit like Tesla. A few years from now we'll probably have a 20K€ for the cheap version & probably a 35K to 40K€ for the Alpine & competition versions (I want to see that thing in rally so bad), with plenty ways for personalization. It's a success imo.
Very nice retro styling. I really liked the roof design pattern.
Will there be a right hand drive available in Australia? Will there be any dealer support? Will there be readily available spare parts? Will there be mechanics who know how to fix them? What is the warranty on the battery? What is the likely depreciation rate? So many questions, so few answers .........
People : Wow that looks insane. I want one!.
Renault : its an ev.
People : never mind.
remember what i ve told you....some retro designs are timeless and still gorgeous. so why some brands as BMW must refere to their glorious past to make modern reborns. renault did that.
That gridlike headliner is really beautiful
We're not even halfway through 2024 but this is definitely one of the best cars of the year already.
I'm really looking forward to this thing, really can't wait to see it on the roads!
My 3rd and last Renault is my current drive so this design makes me feel so nostalgic. And, like many design focused cars, there are quirks that are character building... EV's so desperately need character.
I actually never liked the original 5, but this version!! Fantastique!!
Thankfully I will be moving out of the U.S. to Sweden in 2026 or 2027...definitely want to drive one of these when I am there.
What do think if FIAT would redesign the 1960 FIAT 124 berlina? What will it look like?
It has same design vibe with Ioniq 5 but I love this than Ioniq. This is more avangarde and radical, though I love the way Ioniq 5 looking.
You're right, they both have that 80s retro vibe. However it's far smaller and significantly less expensive than the Ioniq 5. I love both the Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6 designs, but they're too big for my own preferences, despite looking smaller than they actually are.
@@ryannatividad3137 You're right, Ioniq 5 looks still iconic and great, but this one looks so unique. French know how to desing but sometimes, they're too radical.😅
300HP in R5?! You must be joking, where is fun in that!
3307lbs is ~1500 kilos so it makes sense to be specific
That stalk is the drive selector, and the cap on the end can be swapped for a number of designs.
The car is also available with a wicker basket along the centre console to store your baguette. You know, France.
This has jumped to the top of my list to replace my Skoda if it comes to Australia.
What model Skoda would it replace?
I currently drive an Octavia Wagon we bought new in 2015 and it now has 200k on the clock. I know the R5 is not a direct replacement, being a couple sizes smaller. The Skoda was originally the main family car, but a year ago we got a Kia EV6 for family duties and the Octavia was relegated to my daily commute, so I don't really need a car this big.
I was also considering a Kia EV3 or 4, VW ID.2, or maybe an MG4 (though I am not as excited for the MG4 as the others).
@@amperformance7998I wish we got the MG6 .... Actually
Hello
Thank you for your video. The analysis of the car’s design is very relevant and very interesting.
Today, as with the first generation of R5, the marketing target is 1) young people and 2) the young mother who must transport her children and her shopping.
In the minds of Americans, there is still a natural association between power, car size and safety. European cars are designed for generally tighter environments and safety is more associated with control of the car such as its speed, brakes, handling, etc.
The new R5 EV is suitable for urban to semi-urban use. If consumers are interested, why not see them in cities across the United States. It is also a question of usage mentality.
I guess I'm the odd one out. I think it looks awkward. I see the reference to the original, but I feel like the design is almost overwrought. The mix of soft and smooth surfacing contrasts awkwardly with the geometric light features. The same applies to the sharp lines that accents the wheel arches.
I think the interior is a slam dunk though
this is such a beauty. I would like one
The thing why the new renault 5 is underpowered i think it is mainly because of insurance
the less power the car has the cheaper in insurance will be in europe and in france they
are really picky about that
I will prefer a more powerful version or a gasoline model too but it is what it is
Will it keep that cool interior?
I owned a 5 back in the eighties, they were called Le Car here in the states. It had a newer dash with a better design than what you showed. That dash had vertical segments running horizontally partway across that looked like little pillows, but were hard plastic. The vertical stitching on the new dash must be a throwback to that dash design. Having said that, the Le Car was the worst, most unreliable car I’ve ever owned. Hope the new one is much more reliable.
It's electric, and EV's are very reliable.
Reliability was horrible for almost every car company in the 80s (except for the japanese brands). Nowadays Renaults are above average in terms of reliability.
liked because of the cat cameo
Baguette Holder 🥖
LOVE RENAULT 5
This new Renault 5 especially the interior design makes me think of French ideas of future tech. They hired Jean Michelle Jarre so I'm taken back to when France introduced the TGV and Concorde (with us Brits 😉😂). For that reason it feels right for it to be an EV.
Renault probably isn't as big a name as Tesla and Nissan because their EVarent sold in all markets but they've been in the game as long as Tesla and Nissan so alongside still selling the Clio it doesn't make sense to have this be an I.C.E. car. to me.
You want it in the USA yes, but not many would buy it. Also 145HP is enough for Asia and Europe
So no this "normal" version for you in USA but maybe the hot hatch Sport version made in Alpine, current name "R5 A290" because I think that Alpine, therefore Renault, will review things to market it in the USA if the normal R5 has a lot of success in Europe and the rest of the world, which I think will happen. Wait & see... -> czcams.com/video/Z9UX2VVzy4k/video.html
yet not available here in the USA
Quite normal
Please do Fiat Panda New Concepts
I love it! Not a damned boring SUV....
Review the 2025 dodge charger 😊
Its very good looking
this or honda e?
honda e is over, it was too expensive
The 5 for sure and i am a Honda fan!
Just a shame its in electric only...?🏴👍
Bembli: "I could not have modernized this design better"
Lol what a tool, yes we know you could not!
The R5 Alpine Turbo was still FWD and pretty low on power... We should not expect a 300hp RWD hot hatch, if they don't make an "R5 Turbo" without the alpine nomenclature?
Review the new Opel Astra. Pretty bold design to.
They said 3307 pounds because that is 1500 kilograms.
Rosy❤
more cat in your reviews please
This will be over priced and therefore a failure. I like it’s proported range but I’d rather have a Zoe
3307 pounds is a very specific number because in every other country that is 1.5 metric tons.
excited to see what nissan will do with this platform
I dont know why you are still raving about ice cars, didnt you get the memo that we have to stop burning stuff?
Because … why? CO2? Yeah, because the CO2 output of a small hot hatch is statistically relevant in any way compared to Taylor Swift‘s private jet. Give me a break.
@@woeye3251If you look at it like that, even the private jet is statistically irrelevant to the global CO2 emissions. Global emmissions are just the sum of numerous small emmissions that all have to end. At least there is now an easy alternative to ICE cars, unlike jets.
This video is a mess. Throughout the whole video, you repeat that the 1984 mk2 is a facelift. It was not a facelift [a facelift is when you grab a car, change/redesign some parts, to make it fresher and make it last more years].
The 1984 mk2 is a 100% new car.
While the original 1972 was based on the 1961 Renault 4 platform and engines, disposing the engine longitudinally ahead of the wheels, the 1984 mk2 was based in a shortened version of the 100% new platform firstly unveiled in the 1981 Renault 9, which displaces the engines transversally.
You also totally mix it up when showing dashoards. The interior you're showing at 12:00 is mk2 one, not the mk1 - which, not only was different from this, as it had 2 versions (1 in the 1972, and another in the 1979 facelift).
If the Renault 5 were a hybrid, like the Prius, then, yes, it would be mind blowing. As is, it's a great design concept... meh.
Meh to you! The future is electric dinosaur 🗣
@@MatrixJockey You will own nothing and be happy.
"If this petrol car could have been pulled by horses"
@@davidhunternyc1What's the point?
ALL cars nowadays are connected, even the ICE ones.
So they also can kill an engine from a distance!
Buy a Clio... It is is brother
Gauge cluster is absolutely too big and clunky, for absolutely no reason. And it's not even really reminiscent of the original, which looked way different and was lower. It should at least 3 inches lower in the new EV. You feel like you're sitting in front of a television you are looking over.
What? I hate drive ICE Cars.
They are noising, the acellarion is not Linear, in uphills the torque is a shit and to Park is a shit Also.
sounds like a skill issue.
@@zurkke Lol.
In Ice Cars you cannot drive at 5km/h... Etc
@@contraplano3157 what? you can if you let go the clutch slowly. Yeah, you simply cannot drive.
@@zurkke I have an ICE car for 20 years also... It will be to trash this year.
@@contraplano3157 what car is it, big boi? is it an automatic like all american rednecks love?
the original renault 5 was an absolute sh!tbox
"EV driving experience" comment is wrong. Apple to Apple, EV have better performance. Torque is immediate. Zero to 100km in a cheap EV can be 7 sec, and in more expensive models 3 sec. EV are fun to drive. Very fast and sporty EV are available if you have the money. Unless you like a noisy, smelly, jurky drive, look into EV.
Cooking in a microwave is much faster and more convenient. Doesn't mean it'll be tastier than cooking in an oven or on a grill.
Schools still out for me on this new Renault.
It's up against the Fiat 500e and Mini e, both of which have this tight market segment sewn up, for quite a few years now.
Looks a little Suzuki Swift/Honda e/mini-Hyundai Ionic 5/Peugeot 208e front facia rip off ... to me.
Simply doesn't look "french" enough. Renault enough. Nice try by Renault though.
This will outsell the Mini and 500 combined, guaranteed 🎉
@@jimmyh6601Don't forget to post the Total sales Number for the new Renault 5, along with the Total Sales Numbers for the 500 and Mini, when they have sold more.
@@Mexxx65 will do, I know I've been waiting a year to put my order in for the Renault 5, the reveal reinforced that.
They need to rebadge this as a nissan, manufacture it in North America, and do some small styling changes, and use the parts bin to make this happen.
God that would make me so happy
It does share a lot with the next Nissan Micra
Why? Americans only buy trucks, SUVs and crossovers
Especially not!
This will also come as the new Micra.
