The Renault 5 has been crowned the 2025 Car of the Year, a testament to its technological innovation, exceptional value for money, and unmatched charm.

This prestigious accolade solidifies the Renault 5’s position as a game-changer in the market.

With its mischievous grin and sleek silhouette, the Renault 5 re-imagines the spirit of its iconic predecessor while embracing a bold, futuristic identity. Details like the four-cornered headlight themes, bonnet-mounted indicator and distinctive grille pay homage to the original R5. The vibrant exterior colours, LED front headlights, and 18-inch disco steel wheel rims give the Renault 5 a fresh vibe.
Inside, the retro aesthetic continues with thoughtful nods to the past, like stitching that mimics the original’s ridged plastic dashboard. However, this nostalgic design is fused with modernity, featuring a 7-inch digital driver display and 10.1-inch openR link multimedia screen. Bright colours, tactile materials, and ergonomic controls create a cabin that is both cheerful and sophisticated.
