NEW 2025 RENAULT 4 REVIEW: THE BEST EV FOR NORMAL PEOPLE

EV Channels Review

The Renault 4 EV is presented as an electric car for 'normal people,' eschewing futuristic spaceship aesthetics for a stylish, practical, and retro-inspired design. The reviewer praises its cute, chunky styling, reminiscent of the original, and highlights practical features like the 52 kWh battery, 100 kW charging capability, and a versatile boot space offering up to 425 liters (or 1,450 liters with seats folded) and a clever waterproof underfloor compartment. While the interior offers decent materials and a user-friendly 10.1-inch infotainment system with Google built-in, rear passenger space is noted as tight for taller individuals. The driving experience is described as nimble and light for an EV (under 1.5 tons), offering a comfortable ride and engaging handling, particularly in urban environments. The reviewer commends the physical climate controls and the option to disable annoying beeps. However, the key fob design is criticized as impractical. Overall, the Renault 4 EV is seen as a refreshing, practical, and affordable electric car that successfully blends retro charm with modern usability, addressing key practicality concerns compared to its sibling, the Renault 5.
