Renault's stand, located in Hall 8 of the Fira de Barcelona, will host its E-Tech electric vehicle range until May 18th, showcasing a legacy of 15 years. Notably, at the 2011 Barcelona Motor Show, the brand presented a range of three fully electric vehicles (Twizy, Fluence, and Kangoo) to the public.
Now, the E-Tech electric range includes the Renault 5, Megane, Scenic, and, making its national debut, the Renault 4. This range has started the year by quadrupling its sales, positioning Renault as the second highest-selling electric brand in the country (2,610 units in the first quarter). Among other achievements, the Renault 5 E-Tech electric was the best-selling electric vehicle in April.
Additionally, Barcelona is hosting the spectacular R5 TURBO 3E E-Tech electric show car, which is sure to capture the attention of all attendees. This vehicle is a preview of the Renault 5 Turbo 3E, a modern and electric version of the Renault 5 Turbo and Turbo 2 from the 1980s, which is now available for reservation.
Moreover, within the stand, there will be a 'The Originals Store' area, ideal for exploring merchandise including clothing, miniatures, and items that will delight brand enthusiasts.
For over two years, Renault has offered its customers a package of services and solutions called the E-Tech full electric plan. Aiming to break down the barriers to purchasing an electric car, the brand offers a home charger through Mobilize Power Solutions - also handling its installation - and the Mobilize Charge Pass card, which provides access to over 7,000 public charging points in Spain and more than 500,000 in Europe.
As a major innovation, this week Renault Group announced a historic agreement with Iberdrola, becoming the first car manufacturer to establish such a comprehensive collaboration framework with an energy company in Spain. Thanks to this, a unique offer has been developed for Renault Group and Iberdrola customers, including numerous benefits such as 10,000 km of free home charging per year for three years (30,000 km in total) and a specific electricity contract. More details about this agreement can be found in the related press release.
Thus, the brand offers the Renault 5 E-Tech electric along with the E-Tech full electric plan (including the 30,000 km of charging) from 99 euros per month through the multi-option credit Preference. For the Renault 4 E-Tech electric, this fee is 114 euros per month.
All of this is complemented by exclusive benefits, such as preferential financing conditions for the purchase of the vehicle and charger, and the possibility of obtaining an 800 € discount thanks to the CAEs and the advance of the MOVES plan.
The brand has designed a specific space within its stand to showcase to its customers this entire ecosystem of services available when purchasing an electric vehicle, thanks to the combined efforts of Renault Group, Ampere, and the Renault brand.
The absolute novelty of Renault at Automobile Barcelona 2025 is the Renault 4 E-Tech electric, a modern reinterpretation of the iconic Renault 4 that was born in the 1960s to meet the needs of a rapidly evolving society. In fact, the motorisation rate in Spain was particularly low: 1 car for every 48 inhabitants. Its success was spectacular, with more than 8 million units sold in over 100 countries (800,000 produced at the Valladolid Factory) and it remains the best-selling Renault vehicle in history.
In 2025, the Renault 4 E-Tech electric model retains the DNA of the original but adapts to current times with a retro-futuristic design and advanced technology, arriving with a similar goal to the original model: to popularise mobility, in this case, electric mobility.
The Renault 4 E-Tech is a versatile, 100% electric and connected compact, ideal for daily use and adventures, offering modularity and comfort. Additionally, it incorporates safety technologies (ADAS) and connectivity (openR link and reno, Renault's official avatar), making it the compact electric car of a new generation.
It is positioned in the B segment, just above the Renault 5 E-Tech electric, and is designed to be versatile and multipurpose. With a range of up to 400 km, a 420-litre boot, ingenious storage compartments, and a foldable bench, this car is ideal for daily commutes and weekend getaways. Its AmpR Small platform, specific for electric vehicles, allows for the full advantages of electric technology.
In addition to having two units on display at the brand's stand, a spectacular structure has been installed that emphasises the model's lines and conveys its electric nature. Considered a work of art, it is a symbol of the technology embedded in the Renault 4 E-Tech electric.
Renault also features an outdoor area dedicated to dynamic tests, where the seven models of its full hybrid E-Tech range (Clio, Captur, Symbioz, Arkana, Austral, Espace, and Rafale) will be at Automobile Barcelona 2025.
This technology, which the brand considers key to the transition to electric vehicles and reducing emissions from the car fleet, is already a favourite among Renault customers. It ranks second in hybrid sales, capturing 18.2% of this market in the first quarter of the year and doubling registrations compared to the same period in 2024.
Furthermore, five of these seven vehicles are produced at the Valladolid (Captur and Symbioz) and Palencia (Austral, Espace, and Rafale) factories, which are part of Renault Group's Hybridisation Hub.
The hyper hybrid E-Tech 4x4 300 HP version of Rafale, which endows the 'made in Spain' model with high-flying performance, will also be available for testing. Additionally, being a plug-in vehicle, it achieves an electric mode range of 106 km.
