"The 5 Turbo was a shock to the world when it debuted as Renault’s challenge to the exotic rally machinery fielded by Lancia. Taking a different tack entirely from the Ferrari-powered, wild-looking Stratos, Renault looked through its stable of cars and picked out one of the smallest and least powerful, the 5 supermini. A miniature skunkworks team of Renault-Alpine engineers oversaw the transformation from ultra-compact urban car to a mid-engined, box-flared rally monster. Those flares (and other external styling clues) were the work of Marcello Gandini, better known for his masterpiece, the Lamborghini Countach LP400. Sitting back where the passenger seats used to be is a turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder with nearly double its original output — 155 horsepower in street trim, and far more on the rally courses of Europe. Considering its humble roots, the little Renault did very well, at least until Audi’s Quattro burst onto the scene and made everything else virtually obsolete. Still, there’s no denying the cheeky charm of the Renault 5 Turbo, which is a rewarding driver and a reminder of how clever engineering can solve complex problems."—Official description[1]
The 1980 Renault 5 Turbo is a rear-wheel drive hot hatch by Renault.
It appears in Forza Motorsport 2 as part of the December Car Pack, and as standard in all subsequent main series titles, except for Forza Horizon.
Synopsis[]
The 5 Turbo was designed to compete against the Lancia Stratos HF Group 4 in rally racing.
Having no production cars similar to the Stratos, Renault chose to convert the front-engined Renault 5 supermini to a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports car. The end result was the 5 Turbo, whose widebody design was penned by Bertone designer Marcello Gandini.[2] It boasted a 1.4 liter turbocharged inline-four with 157 hp (117 kW) that breathed through its massive intakes on the rear fenders.
The original 5 Turbo was produced from 1980 to 1982. It was replaced by the less expensive but similar performing Turbo 2 that was produced until 1985.
In 2001, Renault introduced the Renault Sport Clio V6 as its second mid-engined supermini production car.
Variants[]
