01 Apr 2023|1,987 views
Renault has announced that it is currently fine-tuning the handling and performance of the upcoming new Renault 5 (see the Renault 5 concept here).
A total of nine early prototypes are said to already be undergoing dynamic fine-tuning and endurance testing in the low grip conditions of Swedish Lapland as well as at the Renault technical centres in Lardy and Aubevoye in France.
The Renault 5 will be built atop a new CMF-B EV platform, which shares 70% of the parts used for the CMF-B platform that underpins the Clio and the Captur. The CMF-B EV platform, Renault additionally states, is 30% cheaper to manufacture than the one found in the Zoe.
It will also weigh roughly 20kg less than that used for the Zoe, and it makes use of an electrically excited synchronous motor, which does away with the use of rare-earth metals, keeping large-scale production costs low while also lowering the car's environmental impact.
