Charge time

Range

With a usable battery of 52 kWh and motorway-ish consumption around 163 Wh/km, the Renault 5 E-Tech realistically covers about 319 km on a charge. At 130 km/h, in the cold or with a roof box the figure drops, so plan for about 80 percent of it on the motorway.

Plugs and charging

The Renault 5 E-Tech uses CCS (Combo 2) for fast charging and Type 2 for ordinary AC, like virtually every new EV in Europe. So it fits the vast majority of public chargers without adapters.
