A Double Victory: The Renault 5 E-Tech electric Crowned 'Business Car of the Year'

We are proud to announce that the all-new Renault 5 E-Tech electric has been honored with two of the most prestigious titles at the 2025 Business Car Awards: 'Business Car of The Year' and 'Best Small Car.'

This double victory is a landmark moment for Renault, reinforcing our commitment to delivering electric vehicles that are not only desirable and innovative but also offer compelling value and functionality for business and fleet customers. The awards, which recognize the vehicles that best serve the UK's business car market, highlight the Renault 5 E-Tech electric's standout performance in key areas like cost of ownership, practicality, and driver appeal.

From 'One to Watch' to a Double Winner

Last year, the Renault 5 E-Tech electric was a "One to Watch" at the very same awards. To progress from this promising recognition to a double-award triumph in just one year is a powerful statement about how the market has responded to our new electric supermini. Industry experts praised the car's unique blend of retro-futuristic style, a fun and engaging drive, and impressive electric range that challenges established rivals—all at an accessible price point.

Designed to Delight, Engineered for Business

The Renault 5 E-Tech electric seamlessly blends its head-turning, iconic design with a host of practical benefits that make it an ideal choice for any fleet. It’s a car that proves you don’t have to compromise style for substance. With a choice of two battery options offering a range of up to 252 miles (WLTP), it's perfectly suited for both urban commuting and longer journeys. The recognition from the awards confirms that the car has successfully balanced strong fleet credentials with a broad appeal to drivers, firmly hitting the mark for both.
