The Renault 5, affectionately known as the "Super 5" in some markets, was a supermini car produced by the French automaker Renault from 1972 to 1996. The 1987 to 1991 model years saw the third generation of the Renault 5, a significant departure from its predecessors. This iteration, designed by Gaston Juchet, was more angular and sporty than its predecessors, with a higher roofline and increased interior space. The Super 5 continued to offer a range of engines, from fuel-efficient 1.1-liter gasoline units to the more powerful 1.7-liter "Turbo" engine, providing a sporty driving experience. It also introduced a new range of equipment, including electric windows, power steering, and a more advanced dashboard with a digital instrument cluster. This generation of the Renault 5 proved to be incredibly popular across Europe, particularly in France, where it was one of the best-selling cars for many years. The 1987-1991 Renault 5's popularity stemmed from its practicality, affordability, and versatility. It was ideal for city driving thanks to its compact size, but it also offered sufficient space for a family. Its reliability and fuel efficiency made it an attractive option for everyday driving. The Renault 5 also benefited from its extensive customization potential, with a wide range of trim levels, optional extras, and aftermarket modifications available. This allowed owners to tailor the car to their individual needs and preferences. Though production of the Renault 5 ceased in 1996, its legacy continues to this day. Its design influence can be seen in modern Renault models, and its reputation as a reliable, affordable, and fun-to-drive car remains strong, particularly in the classic car scene. The 1987-1991 Renault 5 continues to be a popular choice for classic car enthusiasts who appreciate its unique design, its driving experience, and its rich history.
