What a year for Renault! Here at Renault Retail Group, we're thrilled to announce a fantastic string of honours from the highly prestigious Auto Express New Car Awards 2025! Our commitment to making electric vehicles accessible, usable, and desirable has been officially recognised, with the Renault 4 E-Tech electric, Renault 5 E-Tech electric, and Renault Master E-Tech all collecting significant awards!
These awards are among the most respected in the industry, reflecting models that Auto Express experts confidently recommend to new car buyers based on what matters most to consumers – from practicality and efficiency to price, reliability, and the driving experience.
Paul Barker, Auto Express Editor, summed it up perfectly: “Resurgent Renault has had a successful year at the Auto Express New Car Awards, with the new retro-styled 4 and 5 models both picking up well-deserved wins for their character, charm and keen pricing. While at the other end of the scale, the excellent Master proved its pedigree by winning both the electric van and large van awards. Renault is back on form across the board.”
Adam Wood, Managing Director, Renault UK, highlighted the strength of our range: “These awards epitomise the strength of the Renault E-Tech and LCV ranges. From launch, Renault 5 and Master set new benchmarks in their categories and now, just a day after Renault 4 orders open for R Pass customers, R4 is officially recognised as the very best small SUV available.”
Against fierce competition, the Renault 4 E-Tech electric was crowned ‘Small SUV of the Year’! Priced from £26,995 OTR and available to order now for R4 R Pass customers, this modern reinvention retains the iconic original’s trademark practicality and versatility. Highlights include impressive interior space, a generous 420-litre boot, and a driving range of up to 247 miles.
Joining the winner's circle, the Renault 5 E-Tech electric claimed the ‘Affordable Electric Car of the Year’ title. Notably, the Renault 4 E-Tech electric was also 'Highly Commended' in this category!
Starting from £22,995 OTR, the Renault 5 E-Tech electric perfectly blends retro style with modern engineering, offering agile handling, innovative technology, and a driving range of up to 252 miles. Its heart-winning design and vibrant colours make it truly fun to drive. It also received a ‘Highly Commended’ in the ‘Supermini of the Year’ category.
Proving Renault supports customers at both work and play, the Renault Master collected not one, but two crucial accolades: ‘Large Van of the Year’ and ‘Electric Van of the Year’!
Designed to go further, carry more, and cost less, the Renault Master offers load spaces from 11 to 20 cubic metres, with wider side door openings and extended load capacity. The all-electric Master E-Tech boasts a class-leading range of up to 285 miles and is priced from £37,500 after the plug-in van grant.
And finally, the popular Renault Kangoo was ‘Highly Commended’ in the ‘Small Van’ category. Available with petrol, diesel, or 100% electric powertrains, and in various formats, the Kangoo continues to provide hard-working businesses with the practicality and versatility they need.
These awards truly solidify Renault's position at the forefront of the automotive industry, delivering exceptional vehicles across the board. Visit Renault Retail Group today and discover our award-winning range for yourself!
