Renault 5 E-Tech Hatchback 110kW Iconic Five Comfort Range 52 kWh 5dr Auto Owner Review

The car pretty much matches your & every other site's reviews.
It is an exceptionally good-looking managing to be fresh & modern, while giving a nostalgic nod to the original Renault 5.
The interior is finished in an attractive mustardy greeny\yellow & grey 'cloth' . I am a portly 6'2" , the seats are comfortable & supportive but not overly figure-hugging. Driving position is easily adjusted. Rear legroom behind my seat is very limited. This is definitely not a car for long distances with 3 adult-sized passengers. The boot is big enough for my needs.

The most commonly used functions are on various steering-wheel 'wands', buttons on the wheel spokes, or physical lower dashboard buttons. I hate fiddling with touchscreens when driving and find this a big plus both for convenience & safety. On the downside, it's a bit too easy to confuse the gear selector with the wiper wand and\or the multifunction audio wand below it. The Instrument screen is bright, clear & attractive, It has all the usual modern safety systems, I've saved my personal safety settings & recall them by pressing of a single button on the dash - again no faffing in the settings on a touch screen! The touchscreen screen\infotainment with Google built-in is very usable & convenient as I have an Android phone.

The car is an enjoyable drive, it rides very nicely, despite the small wheelbase and there is not much body roll. A Lotus Elise it isn't, but it's pretty nippy and the handling & steering make it good fun on the wiggly bits. I'm getting an easy 4miles per kWh on hilly country B roads & some A roads. More conservative drivers should easily improve on this.

I've been driving electric cars for the last 8 years & this is by far the best so-far.
