What reviewers say
Reviewers agree the Grande Panda is keenly priced, with a cheerful, well-thought-out design, a roomy cabin for its size and an easy, comfortable drive in town. The common criticisms are so-so efficiency and range, and motorway refinement; What Car? and Parkers rate the Renault 5 sharper to drive, and Auto Express found the electric version slow and the screens low in resolution.
