The Renault 5 Supercinq, often referred to simply as the Super 5, was a significant car for Renault, marking the second generation of their popular city car. Launched in 1984, it aimed to build upon the success of the original Renault 5, offering a larger, more spacious, and more modern package. The Supercinq retained its predecessor's appealing, boxy shape but incorporated new design elements, most notably the distinctive, angular headlights and a more aerodynamic rear end. The Super 5 was available in a wide variety of body styles, including a three-door hatchback, a five-door hatchback, a van, and even a sporty version called the "GTX." Inside, the car offered a spacious and functional cabin, with a practical dashboard layout and comfortable seating for four adults. While the Supercinq's success stemmed from its practicality, it also offered a range of engines to suit various needs, from economical and frugal to peppy and sporty.

The Supercinq's most significant contribution was its versatility and affordability. It continued the success of the original Renault 5, becoming a popular choice for families and city dwellers alike. It offered a combination of practicality, affordability, and reliability, making it a strong contender in the European small car market. Despite its success, the Supercinq faced stiff competition from other popular hatchbacks like the Peugeot 205 and the Volkswagen Polo. The arrival of the third-generation Renault 5, known as the Clio, in 1990 eventually led to the Supercinq's discontinuation in 1996. However, its legacy lived on, contributing to Renault's reputation for producing reliable and affordable small cars, laying the groundwork for the success of future models like the Clio and Twingo.
