powerful and instant torque
The two in-wheel motors at the rear develop an instantly available total torque of 4,800 Nm for immediate and continuous acceleration. The specific tyres mounted on 20” wheel rims ensure incredible road-holding. The even more radical “overtake” button on the steering wheel triggers a power boost when you want to overtake.
innovative in-wheel motor technology
By placing each of the two motors inside a rear wheel, all of the power is delivered without loss, for optimum responsiveness and improved energy efficiency. This technique reduces the number of parts and the weight, thereby enhancing Renault 5 Turbo 3E’s agility, performance and driving range. The possibility of controlling the distribution of the torque on each wheel provides optimum control of the front-wheel drive, grip and agility.
