- Renault celebrated the production of its 100,000th Renault 5 E-Tech on December 1, 2025, indicating that the brand's all-electric B-segment model is enjoying a noticeable success with European customers but mostly in France. Therefore, a total of 110,000 units can be expected by the end of December 2025, with 25,379 produced in 2024 and 84,621 in 2025. It should be noted that the average annual sales of the Renault Zoe in the B segment were 40,000 vehicles per year (i.e. a total of 430,000 units between 2012 and 2024).
- At the European level, the Renault 5 E-Tech is currently in fourth position among BEVs in 2025 (72,000 sales over the 11-month period), the model being preceded by the Tesla Model Y (121,500 units), the Skoda Elroq (76,500 units) and the Tesla Model 3 (72,500 units), but given the gap with the Tesla Model 3, the Renault 5 E-Tech could take third place before the end of the year.
- Thanks to its strong French background (1972-1984), the Renault 5 E-Tech currently achieves the majority of its sales in France (47% of total sales). It is also projected to be the best-selling battery electric car in France by 2025.
- The Renault 5 E-Tech is poised for a bright future, with a lifespan of at least seven or eight years. At current rates, it could surpass the cumulative sales figures of the Renault Zoe (2012-2024: 430,000 units) before 2030. Inovev is indeed forecasting 500,000 cumulative sales by 2030. Sales of the Renault 5 E-Tech in 2030 are expected to remain around 100,000 vehicles per year.
- The Renault 5 E-Tech could also be part of the "Small Affordable Cars" defined by the European Commission as covering electric vehicles with a maximum length of 4.2 m, since it measures 3.92 m long, or 28 cm less than the length limit.
