The Renault 5 electric (R5 E-Tech) starts at €24,900 in Portugal, according to Renault's website, in the five version with 95 hp. It has up to 430 km of WLTP range with the 52 kWh battery and up to 315 km with the 40 kWh one.
On AUTO.MOTO.pt there are already used 2025 Renault 5 E-Tech cars, between €25,990 and €28,990.
In this guide we look at the price of each version, the real range, how long it takes to charge, what you pay in tax and what to check on a used Renault 5.
Renault 5 electric: price in Portugal
In Renault's versions and prices table, in October 2026, the Renault 5 E-Tech electric is listed with these starting prices:
- five, 95 hp: from €24,900, with the 40 kWh battery;
- evolution, 120 hp: from €27,740, with a heat pump and automatic air conditioning;
- techno, 120 hp: from €29,740, with Google navigation, a reversing camera and one-pedal driving;
- iconic cinq, 150 hp: from €35,240, with the 52 kWh battery;
- roland-garros, 150 hp: from €36,740, the special edition.
These are starting prices. For the evolution version, Renault quotes an on-the-road price of €28,931, including delivery and paperwork. Offers change every month, so check the final price with the dealer.
Renault 5 E-Tech range
According to the Renault 5 powertrain page, there are three batteries:
- 52 kWh (comfort range): up to 430 km WLTP, with 150 hp or in the evolution with this battery;
- 40 kWh (urban range): up to 315 km WLTP, in the 95 hp and 120 hp versions;
- 37 kWh: up to 305 km WLTP, announced for later.
In practice, expect less. On the motorway at 120 km/h, in the cold or with the air conditioning on, the real range is well below the WLTP figure. In town, with braking recovering energy, the car gets closer to the official number.
If you want an even cheaper electric car just for town, compare it with our guide to the Dacia Spring, with price, range and what to check on a used one. The Spring costs less, but has less range and much less power.
How long it takes to charge
Renault says DC fast charging is available on every version. The official times, from 15% to 80% battery, are:
- 100 kW DC fast charger: about 30 minutes, with the 40 kWh or the 52 kWh battery;
- 11 kW public charger: 2h37 (40 kWh) or 3h13 (52 kWh);
- 7.4 kW wallbox at home: 3h55 (40 kWh) or 5h11 (52 kWh);
- standard household socket (2.3 kW): 11h12 or 17h13, for occasional use only.
If you have a garage, a wallbox makes the most sense day to day. See our guide on how to install a wallbox at home and what the law says about condominiums.
Tax and incentives: IUC and the Fundo Ambiental
As a fully electric car, the R5 is exempt from IUC road tax under article 5 of the IUC Code. That is a saving every year, for used buyers too.
As for incentives, the 2026 Fundo Ambiental zero-emission vehicle incentive gave €4,000 to private buyers, for cars up to €38,500, with the scrapping of a fossil-fuel car over 10 years old. Every R5 version is below that cap.
Applications ran from 11 June to 27 July 2026; check the Fundo Ambiental website for any new round.
Used Renault 5: prices on AUTO.MOTO.pt
On 23 October 2026, there were three adverts for used Renault 5 E-Tech cars on AUTO.MOTO.pt, all from 2025 and all with the 120 hp motor:
- €25,990 with 43,000 km;
- €26,980 with 28,510 km;
- €28,990 with 3,000 km.
So a nearly new R5 costs a little less than a new 120 hp one, which starts at €27,740. For more choice, see all the used electric cars for sale: 721 adverts, with a median price of €26,500.
What to check on a used Renault 5 electric
- battery: check whether it has 40 kWh or 52 kWh, as it changes the range and the car's value;
- battery warranty: Renault gives 8 years or 160,000 km; ask a dealer for a battery health report (SOH);
- version: the 95 hp five has no heat pump, which helps range in winter;
- cables: the public charging cable (mode 3) is standard; the household socket cable is optional;
- history: ask for the service invoices and check the car's VIN before you pay.
Safety: four Euro NCAP stars
In December 2024, Euro NCAP gave the Renault 5 E-Tech four stars. It scored 80% for adult and child protection, 76% for vulnerable road users and 68% for safety assist, where it fell short of the five-star threshold.
