JAKARTA Renault opened a new chapter in the world of electric sports cars by launching Renault 5 Turbo 3E. Inspired by past rally icons, this car is not just nostalgia, but also shows Renault's future ambitions in the electrical-based high performance segment.
Equipped with an 800-volt electricity system and a wild power equivalent to 540 hp, R5 Turbo 3E is a symbol of Renault's innovation and racing heritage. Official orders opened on April 22 through a special reservation system. There are only 1,980 units worldwide, the inaugural delivery is scheduled for 2027.

By design, R5 Turbo 3E appears aggressive with a wide and ceper proportion of body. The total length is 4.08 meters, 2.03 meters wide, and only 1.38 meters high. The power is channeled to the rear wheels through two independent electric motors which produce extraordinary torques reaching 4,800 Nm. Built with a light carbon structure, the weight is less than 1,450 kg and can fly from 0100 km/h in less than 3.5 seconds.
The power sector is no less impressive. Its 70 kWh battery supports fast charging thanks to the 800 volt architecture and onboard DC charger of up to 350 kW. 15 minutes enough to charge from 15% to 80%. The distance? More than 400 km according to WLTP standards.
With all the technology and performance, Renault claims R5 Turbo 3E offers a really different driving sensation than other electric cars. However, the price is considered too high by some, especially when compared to Hyundai Ioniq 5 N, which sells almost half the price of Turbo 3E in the European market.
