The Renault 5 and its Alpine A290 hot-hatch sibling have won the coveted Car of the Year (COTY) award for 2025 – giving Renault its second consecutive victory in the annual contest. 

The 5 and A290 were awarded 353 points by a jury of 60 judges from 23 countries. 

Of those, 25 ranked the pair in first place 
The runner-up, the Kia EV3, received a total of 291 points.

The Citroën C3/ë-C3 completed the podium with 215, followed by the Hyundai Inster (172), Dacia Duster (168), Cupra Terramar (165) and Alfa Romeo Junior (136).

Last year's winner was the Renault Scenic, and the Jeep Avenger took top honours in 2023.

This means Renault is the first manufacturer to win back-to-back gongs since Fiat in 1995 and 1996, with the Punto and Bravo/Brava.

Each of the 60 jurors nominates seven new cars that were driven and on sale before the end of the previous calendar year. 

The seven cars with the most combined votes then make up the final shortlist.

To qualify for COTY, a model must be all-new; facelifts such as the recent Tesla Model 3 and Renault Clio are not permitted.

Derivatives do not qualify as new or standalone cars, hence the A290 being considered the same car as the 5 on which it is based, despite being sold by a different brand.
