The refreshed Renault 5 now has a price in Spain, featuring longer range, new colors, and improved equipment.

After weeks of rumors and leaks, Renault has opened orders for the updated R5 in the Spanish market. For now, the range consists of two variants: one with 120 HP (90 kW) and a 40 kWh NCM (nickel, cobalt, manganese) battery, and another with 150 HP (110 kW) and a 52 kWh NCM battery. The entry-level Five version, which features a new 110 HP (80 kW) engine, a 36.5 kWh LFP (lithium-iron-phosphate) battery, and standard fast charging, will be launched later.

Thanks to a series of aerodynamic improvements (redesigned lower body panel, new mirrors) and optimization of the battery electronics, range increases from 312 to 321 km WLTP for the 40 kWh model and from 410 to 431 km WLTP for the 52 kWh model. The upcoming Five version will remain at 305 km WLTP: despite using a smaller battery pack, its engine’s lower consumption makes up for it.

In the coming weeks, the color options will expand with two new additions: Desire Red and Slate Gray (the latter previously reserved for the top-tier Roland-Garros trim). New customization options will also be added: black roof with red and gold decorations, golden finish Techno tires, new vinyls... The interior trim in the Iconic version changes from yellow to blue.

Regarding technological features, the R5 now comes equipped with an e-call system compatible with 4G mobile networks, as well as a wireless charger with cooling for smartphones based on the Qi2 standard. According to the manufacturer, this technology allows the battery to be recharged by up to 50% in one hour and prevents overheating.

The entry-level Five version will be available later

In the future, Google Assistant will be replaced via an OTA update by the Gemini AI assistant, also developed by Google. This system understands natural language and can maintain smooth conversations as well as perform complex tasks.

The Renault 5 with 120 HP and 40 kWh battery starts at 28,085 euros, which drops to a minimum of 20,170 euros after discounts, financing incentives, CAE (Energy Efficiency Certificate), and subsidies from Plan Auto+. The 150 HP version with 52 kWh battery begins at 31,085 euros, falling to 22,880 euros with the aforementioned reductions.
