The R5 Turbo seats were characterized by their carefully designed design to enhance lateral support for the occupants, with prominent, enveloping side cushions. When designing the Renault 5 Turbo kit, Tamiya included flatter seats to accommodate the driver's figure, thus losing the seats' spectacular appearance.

In this reference, the fabric texture in the central part of the seat is smooth.
