Description:
The old R5 was an iconic model of the brand and the best-selling car in France in the 70’s and 80’s. The new Renault 5 is the most important launch of Renault for years.

Brief: The re-launch of such an iconic model is an event, but the new R5 was redesigned from scratch: 100% electric, using resourceful materials, with a visionary design.

We could not be nostalgic, that would be an error. We needed new R5 to be a turning point for the brand. To be a revolution.

Objectives: Show Renault has changed everything you expect about cars. Make R5 the symbol of an automobile revolution. Create an emotional metaphor, an epic execution.

Someone once said: “to make a revolution, you must leave the past behind”. The Climb is a visual metaphor of this: to say goodbye to the old automotive world and the start of a new one.

Through an epic journey we will follow a man climbing a gigantic mountain made of old Renault cars. The mountain itself represents what the brand used to be: thermic cars, pollutant, no recycled materials.

The difficult ascent illustrates how hard it is to make such a revolution in the industry. But when he finally arrives at the top, he discovers what’s on the other side: a car that stands for a new car world: electric, digital, resourceful. The new Renault 5.
