The new Renault 5 has been voted car of the year by a panel of 60 European car publications by a wide margin is over 350 points for the 5 (which is bundled with the Alpine A290 for voting purposes) and the second placed EV3 getting a bit less than 300 points.

 

SEAT Teramar came in  a respectable 6th just behind the new Duster.

Off to see a couple of R5s at local Renault dealer.

 

Dealer has a Pop Green and a Pop Yellow versions, both 52 kwh nominal.

 

Dealer going to be very busy tomorrow with new registrations but hope to get a peak at them as have not seen them in the flesh yet.

 

Thinking of going for the 40 kwh LFP version rather than the 52 kwh lithium nmc.

 

Big Renault event in two weeks but good finance deals might not appear until April ie Q2.
