It's yellow as the sun and just as friendly with the environment because the Renault 5 revival comes exclusively with electric power thanks to the French company's E-Tech powertrain. Meanwhile, the performance version of the Tesla Model 3 Highland is leisurely enjoying a 'walk' among Valencia's onlookers in Spain.
Absolutely unsurprising, yet another upcoming automobile has leaked ahead of its official presentation. Spied, rendered, teased, and filled with alternative marketing, the Renault 5 revival's production version has jumped the gun ahead of its worldwide reveal. This time around, it has done so only a few hours ahead of the unveiling programmed at the 2024 Geneva Motor Show – it should arrive shortly from 9:30 AM CET (3:30 AM EST) on Monday, February 26, alongside other novelties from the French brand.
As far as we know, the electric supermini will arrive at European dealerships later this year to remind everyone of the original but with a sustainable twist. Unfortunately, it won't be as affordable because the rumor mill believes this fashionable EV will rock a starting price of about €25k or $27k. It doesn't sound like a lot, but the Renault 5 is a pocket-sized city car, after all. It's poised to rival the electric MINI Cooper E, so we didn't expect any wonders, anyway.
Faithful to the preceding concept, this is the Renault 5 in all its yellow-like-sunflower splendor ahead of the official reveal. The car looks exactly as we expected, but the nice surprise comes from the interior – which blends the charming Renault interiors of the old models from the 1980s and 1990s with modern technology. But wait, that's not all. These last few hours have been great for the rumor mill. In fact, the good folks over at CocheSpias have also uncovered another interesting EV.
Thanks to a tip from a fan, the outlet has given us the potential first look at the high-performance version of the Tesla Model 3 Highland. Although the refresh was presented months ago and has gone on sale since last year in Europe or China, Tesla only offers – at home too – the $38,990 Model 3 RWD and dual-motor all-wheel drive Model 3 Long Range ($47,740) at the moment. Instead, the Performance version is said to have succumbed to the powers of automotive Valhalla.
No worries, something powerful is coming – and the rumor mill believes that it's going to be a Tesla Model 3 Plaid, much in the same vein as the $90k Model S Plaid and $95k Model X Plaid, which both have 1,020 horsepower. Well, a Tesla Model 3 Highland was leisurely strolling among pedestrians in Valencia, Spain, for a photoshoot (note the camera car in the background), and a man called David Valencia on social media immediately noticed that something was amiss – including the new set of aero wheels, the rear bumper, and the subtle badge on the right side of the trunk.
