New Renault 4 SUV: prices, specs & release date

Hot on the heels of the new Renault 5 EV, the French brand is rebooting another of its iconic cars – the utilitarian Renault 4.

Two weeks ahead of its reveal at the Paris Motor Show, Renault has provided us with a handful of teaser images showing some of the upcoming car’s details.

Like its ancestor, the new Renault 4 will get round headlights, cylindrical tail-lights, a boxy shape and bumper add-ons. There are ribbing strips along the sides, chunky black wheel arch cladding and the option of roof rails or a fabric roof.

The new 4 will be 4.14 metres long – slightly longer than the related Renault 5 EV and the Jeep Avenger but shorter than most supermini-sized SUVs. However, Renault says it’s “spacious and versatile enough to suit everyone’s needs”.

We expect the 4 to share the same powertrains as the 5, which would mean a 40kWh battery that offers around 200 miles of range, and a 52kWh battery that offers more like 250 miles.

Renault hasn’t revealed the prices, specs or release date of the 4 yet – more details will be published when it’s unveiled. But, if you’re super keen, you can buy an R4 Pass for £150 that lets you pre-order a car before anyone else and gives you a priority build slot – ensuring you get one of the first customer cars.

As the 5’s more practical cousin, we’d expect the 4 to slightly undercut an equivalent 5. Hopefully prices should start at under £25,000. First deliveries are planned for 2025.

The original Renault 4 launched in 1961 and remained on sale until 1994, amassing over eight million sales globally.

The new car, meanwhile, will go up against a growing number of electric rivals including the BYD Dolphin and Kia EV3.
