- It’s called the R5 Turbo 3E, and it’s a two-seat tribute to the Renault 5 Turbo and Turbo 2 of yesteryears. And unlike most concept cars that’ll turn heads and nothing else, this might just turn your stomach too because it’s designed for DRIFTING.
Don’t be fooled by the all-electric powertrain: it’s rear-wheel drive courtesy of a motor on each of the back wheels, delivering a playful 375hp and 516lb ft. Renault reckons on 0-62mph in 3.5 seconds and a top speed of 124mph, but stops short of predicting what range you’ll get from the 42kWh battery. Presumably, because you can’t get a WLTP rating when sideways…
At 1.5 tonnes (520kg of that is battery cells) it’s a good deal heavier than the cars that inspired it, but a tubular chassis, protected flat base and FIA-approved roll cage should provide plenty of stiffness when engaging that impossible-to-miss handbrake. Which Top Gear Magazine’s Ollie Marriage wasn’t allowed to touch. But that doesn’t mean we didn’t drift it.

Can we petition Renault to make a road going version of this 😢
You know they never will. Don't even get your hopes up.
It looks shit and what’s it good for?
A petrol version is an even slimmer chance
Just a small city hot hatch like this would be a blessing.
why, you gonna buy one?
That is by FAR the coolest electric car I have ever seen!
Still not cool tho
Laughs in vision n 74
Yet the fact is it would be even cooler with a combustion engine
Apparently the McMurthy Spierling doesn't exist
@@bernardoberner4 I mean...... its alright I guess
This crazy out of the box matchbox is literally the way to save 4wheeled art. This car is exactly what we need.
The livery and lilac windows are very cool!
Looks nice but it don’t sound right I hate electric that should have a popping banging loud exhaust. It’s just gay in electric I don’t care what bhp it is.
@@steviefpv wow. tough life mate. Hope you good.
@@steviefpv sounds like you don't like cool shit because it's new.
@@j377yb33n nah its an iconic rally car. Its disgusting having such a beautiful car with no exhaust note. Electric is pure wank.
Love how "cyberpunk" this car looks. Definitely would like to own one similar in the future.
"Coyote" first thing I thought 😂😂
They need to put it in Cyberpunk! 🥳
That's partly because the original car IS cyberpunk. Or at least, one of the hallmarks of car design at the time. Marcello Gandini also designed the countach and the diablo, both of which are pretty much the quintessential "vaporware/80's-aesthetic" cars
@@adithyadevmattada810 Yes the Lamborghini Countach is an icon I'll never own. That & Testarossa
the led strips and pink tints are spot on
Man this thing looks straight out of a Khyzyl Saleem render! It hits all the best elements of old and modern design, and I LOVE that dashboard. Something about simple digital readouts is so satisfying. Embrace the technology, don't try to hide it! Perfection!
Too bad they’ll only build one and we’ll never see anything this cool on the road by Renault
If it had 500 hp like a model 3 and they actually sold it
That's one of the coolest things I've seen in ages. R5 is a top 3 car for me anyway, but this is mad.
Top how for the Clio v6? I still hesitate if i prefer the r5 or the clio ^^
Yes, looks like they been doing a nice job. Not all manufacturers can say the same ;)
As an American, I loved French cars because of how different they are to normal car; and this Renault secures my point. BRAVO RENAULT!!!
That livery and the interior is ridiculously cool. Love it!
This Blade Runner Cyberpunk aesthetic is definitely the way to make electric cars cool.
Need to make this into a one race series. Would look so good with all retro liveries on them!
I second this motion
Imagine MINI doing the same, a retro electric 4wd Morris, would've been insane!
HE HE HA HA all the EV hate a seriously back fired with it and others not allowed to race....
A 5 lap race then 😂
This thing looks absolutely awesome!
An electric Renault 5 Turbo inspired concept car that can drift (aka it actually works) and has a teddy bear as knee padding. You have to applaude the Renault design team for actually building this and having lots of fun with it. We definitely need more of that! 😁😎👍
what
I cringed when I saw the concept sketch ... then this beauty popped up an had me grin from ear to ear.
Holy crap!
Ah, Ivan. Proper chatterbox that lad.
I really would love to know how they made those Back to the Future-esque gauges. It looks like it's something you might be able to buy (I hope).
Look for "renault scenic vision widgets", those are the same. Lovely indeed!
This is what I have been waiting for. I NEED ONE!
Ah Renault's long standing tradition of making crazy and desireable concept cars, only to move on and take a lukewarm shit on a plate and sell it as the megane/twingo/whatever.
I love EVERYTHING about this and would sell my soul for it.
that's some sick power slide marvelous
That already exists as the orignal car though
Honestly this looks amazing
If they'd release this I would buy it straight away!
It is perfect. Perfect. Everything, down to the last minute details.
My uncle had one of the original turbo 5 s , going down the main road at 30 in town , he just touched the hand brake , viola we where facing the wrong way , hilarious for a 12 year old 😂😂
Dang bro!That engine sound is FANTASTIC like Jet engine with a suppressor..sounds cool..and the Car design..Wow looks awesome ..coz no need for mod .Keep up the good work RENAULT@@!!!!
Un sans faute 👍...on peut toujours rêver d'une version de production 🙏
A voir... mais sincèrement, j'ai des doutes.
I love all these nostalgic concept cars car companies are bring out at the moment like this and the Hyundai N-Vision 74, sadly they will never be mainstream 😢
They need to make this road going 😍
If I ever wanted an electric car this would be it I absolutely love the way this beast looks
Anyone else think it was a Hoonigan/Ken Block car based off the livery!?
I Definitely love the silhouette!
I would buy this in an instant. What an insane looking vehicle.
I would buy it and immediately swap it for an ICE engine like it’s supposed to have
Praying these come into production , hopefully hear more soon 🫡
This is insane and it needs to happen❤
Kudos to Renault! Wonderful work
Was never a big Renault Fan, but they made a good Job over the last Years.
The exact opposite of this.
I wish Ken Block can live to see this. This is Hoonigan Material
He'd have a lot of fun with this if he was still here, RIP.
I really love the retro cars like this that we've seen a couple of now, like Hyundai's N74, which sadly won't see production, but also had that amazing retro design from the 1974 concept car designed by the guy who designed the DeLorean.
And while I'm not a fan of the windows and the color of this R5, I do love most of everything else, and I love the kinda cyberpunk 80s retro details, like the LEDs in the front that flicker with kinda 80s reminiscent patterns and colors, too bad it's very unlikely to be road legal with that because it's such a cool touch, that's if there'll ever be a road going production version of this, I really wish there would, even if I wouldn't be able to afford one, just seeing them on the road would make me happy.
you got me, this is somehwere on my wishlist now
god i pray they make a road version of this, with that weekend project digital dash and all. i love this
That thing is insane
This is actually amazing wow 👌
Its rare that i like old designs brought into the modern era with modern tweaks but i love the look of this.
Such a sick car. Renault are definitely the undisputed king of hot hatches. Get it made Renault!
This car is looked so stunning, it’s a history of R5 Turbo cars.
wow…I love it!!!!!!! Renault, this car is a perfect 10 from all stand points!!!! Respect 🍻
Nice to see manufacturers having a bit of fun and creating something different for once, we need more of this in the modern age of drab, boring, grey, black and silver electric and/or hybrid SUVs currently occupying the roads.
I fully agree, im still waiting for the day i dont have to worry about how far im allowed to drive after im forced to own an electric car but getting people hyped about actually owning one is a start...
It's a piece of art
best wrap of decade imo
That is one gorgeous looking car
The first interior and dashboard of R5 turbo were Awesome,Personally I love it!
Definitely kerbing those alloys!
Somebody was thinking of "Kenny from the Block" when they created this. Nice job guys. This thing is very cool.
I think its really interesting where hot hatches could go. With Abarth and their great looking car and this, I'm more positive about what the future might hold. Pugs, Ford, Honda, VW everyone get involved
Damn this think looks beautiful, no fancy aero dynamics, just a classic Renault design from cyberpunk.
The 2024(?) R5 electric is the car I’m most excited about. Imagine this Turbo body on a road version…
imagine it with a petrol engine
the gopros in the eyes is brilliant hahah
This way a nice looking car.... I will buy one on the spot.... ❤
That little wideboi is soo cute! 😎
I really hope cars like this & the Hyundai N Vision 74 will be made for the road, I have never bought a car brand new but would seriously consider it if it looked even half as good as either of these.
I love it and i want it.. it's so beautiful !
loved the video nice
I'm now getting recommended this after it got released in GTA Online 😂
Yes! This. Everything.
I like the teddy bear "feature", it has the Renault logo on the foot and very much resembles the Renault Twingo rims from 90s. Great stuff :)
That is just brilliant beautiful design!
The legend they built in the 90s is turning in its grave, gentlemen! I'll probably always be that weird guy next door who has that old car that makes those loud noises and there's a heart (engine) and bzzzz
Great job Renault, here we have a new icon
It's a shame they never did anything like this with the last generation Twingo. A small 1.4 turbo, aggressive body kit and sports suspension would have made that an interesting little homage to the old 5 turbo.
Sadly I never got the impression that Renault was ever very invested in the last Twingo. It was designed as a Smart car first and foremost, I don't think they ever had the authority/budget/motivation to mess with anything more than skin deep.
twingo is cool until you on the highway
I think heat managment in sport version was too complicated to do this cheeply.
@@rafadrzewiecki1905 i imagine a hood with vents and a front bumper with more open space would do the trick
@@Makaya9s last twingo was rr layout like 911 with trunk over an engine. Problematic thing on everyday use if your turbo heats to the red.
I always get excited when I see top gear. But then I am reminded the exciting people have left top gear...
lovely, would daily it through the stormy roads of Rio
This thing is coming straight out from the Need for speed unbound game. design,colours aesthetic everything
its the most fantastic rally car ever built in the entire universe.
one word WOW!
This is so cool
I'd love to drive it! 😍
Oh my.. i'm in love 🤤
"they went down the jumble sale and bought a bear!"
How fortuitous that they found a bear with the Renault logo on its left foot!
Yess road version.plzzz.
This is so cool.
It looks like they've given a seventies designer ev-tech and let him design a body around it. I love it!
Looks like something in Back To The Future 2.😊
yeah I would buy this. My 0ther 2 cars are the toyota Yaris RS, hyundai N74, I own a Fiesta ST with 200,000 miles all original no maintenance. Built like a tank!
Renault need to bring cars like this back!!!
I don’t want any EV.
But I want this thing
beautiful car
Woa the rims!
1:05 INCREIBLE VISTA LOS 6 R5 😮❤❤❤❤
Y FLIPAS CON EL ELECTRICO!!!
Awesome. EV turbos really are something else...
lol
This and the taycan turbo lol
XD
That’s sick
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
I love it.
I love this Renault 5 GoPros Turbo EV!!!
A chance to have a modern version of the old turbo 2!? Sign me up. If even a few of these design cues end up on the road car....chefs kiss.
This is what we want for electric cars!
I love how he bumps the steering wheel at 2:34 and the codriver just stops it like nothing happened, trying not to laugh.
Would like to see this car in the WRC
Beauty!!!
I'd a drive of a 1.4 gt turbo model one of these. Seriously cool little hatchback. It was propr lively to move.
At last, an interesting electric car! It doesn't even sound like a milkfloat!
What are those cover things on the wheels? So cool!
We had Hunday going fore a retro futuristisc borderlne cyberpunk look and now we got Renault doing something simular and I am all fore it.
