Renault R5 Turbo 3E Is A Modern EV Take On The Homologation Special | Carscoops carscoops
production models from the ’80s, built on a tubular chassis with FIA-approved roll bars. As hinted by the E letter on the name, though, this one is fully electric. While Renault engineers could make it insanely powerful, they chose a more sensible output of 375 hp from a set of rear-mounted electric motors, which is still more than double the output of the original ICE-powered models. With a monstrous torque of 700 Nm transmitted to the rear wheels, the concept is a “pure drifter”.
The carbon fiber body is painted in a fancy livery, combined with pink plexiglass for the greenhouse and aero-style rims measuring 19-inches at the front and 20-inches at the back shod in mixed tires . The bodykit is redesigned, with even more prominent aero components than before, including the front splitter, the yellow-painted intakes, the ultra-wide front, and rear fenders, and the massive rear spoiler.
Inside, we find two carbon-fiber racing seats by Sabelt, a futuristic 10-screen digital instrument cluster, a retro-style dashboard, tartan and Alcantara upholstery, a yellow-painted center tunnel, and a drift-style handbrake. There is also a teddy bear called “Drifty”, with the goal of helping passengers relax after a drift show. The driver can choose between different modes including Turbo , Track Invader , Donut , etc.
