Renault\u2019s new long-term strategy involves launching seven electric vehicles by the middle of the decade, chief of which will be the return of the company\u2019s iconic 5 supermini. The transformation plan dubbed \u201cRenaultion\u201d is mainly about the French automaker intensifying its EV efforts, and the five-door subcompact hatchback is at the core of the electric onslaught.<\/p>\n

With good reason, lots of people jumped to the conclusion the Renault 5\u2019s return as an electric car would spell the end of the Zoe. However, that\u2019s not going to be the case, at least not for a while. In an interview with Autocar<\/em><\/a>, design boss Gilles Vidal clarified the two city-oriented EVs will peacefully coexist. At the same time, the new 5 will not replace the popular Clio B-segment car.<\/p>\n
