Renault 5 Turbo 3E: legend reborn, as a production model
London, December 16, 2024, (Oilandgaspress) ––– Anatomy of a Comeback, the documentary series available on Prime Video from 13 December, includes an unexpected Easter egg at the very end of the fourth and final episode: the exclusive reveal of the future Renault 5 Turbo 3E production model. A modern, electric take on the Renault 5 Turbo and Turbo 2 of the 1980s, this spectacular sports car is adrenalin on wheels. Just take the wheel for ultimate driving thrills and powerful acceleration.
A modern take on Renault 5 Turbo and Turbo 2, Renault 5 Turbo 3E was revealed by the show car of the same name at the 2022 Paris Motor Show (link to CP). Packed with performance and exuberance, it makes many nods to the world of motorsports. With the looks and livery of a car built for the track, it sports the historic colours of one of the rallying versions of the early 1980s. Renault 5 Turbo 3E is an all-electric hot hatch of retro-futuristic design, with an eminently modern charging socket in one of the rear air intakes, bringing to mind the styling of the original ‘Turbo’.
The carbon superstructure is both lightweight and extremely stiff, two qualities that are fundamental for a ‘pocket rocket’ worthy of its name and heritage.
Like its iconic predecessor, Renault 5 Turbo 3E will have a rear-wheel drive layout. The two electric motors housed in the rear wheels will deliver instant power to each wheel, for total output of more than 500 bhp. Behind the wheel, drivers will experience ultimate driving thrills with lightning acceleration. Renault 5 Turbo 3E will sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.5 seconds, a performance worthy of a supercar or even a hypercar. The Group is bringing the best of its skills and expertise to the development of this ultimate Renault brand icon.
