The Renault 5 Turbo or R5 Turbo was a high-performance hatchback automobile produced by the French manufacturer Renault in the early 1980s. The car was designed for rallying, but was also sold in road-going guise. Although the standard Renault 5 has a front-mounted engine, the 5 Turbo featured a mid-mounted 1397cc Cléon turbocharged engine placed behind the driver in mid-body in a modified Renault 5 chassis. In standard form, the engine developed 160 hp (118 kW). Though it used a modified body from a standard Renault 5, and was badged a Renault 5, the mechanicals were radically different. The first batch of 400 5 Turbos was produced to comply with Group 4 homologation. A second version, Turbo 2, was introduced using stock Renault 5 parts in replacement of many light alloy parts of the original 5 Turbo. The original 5 Turbo was in retrospect called "Turbo 1". The Turbo 2 was much cheaper but had nearly the same levels of performance. All the racing derivatives were based on the Turbo 1. The factory pushed the engine output up to 180 hp (132 kW) for the Cévennes, 210 hp (154 kW) for the Tour de Corse, and possibly as much as 350 hp (257 kW) in the Maxi 5 Turbo. These kits featured stronger engine internals and more efficient intercoolers. original model by Ganjica from gtainside wheels by ap9
