Thinking of getting a Renault Captur?

Why buy the Renault Captur?

The Renault Captur is a great choice if you’re looking for a small SUV. It’s spacious enough to be practical for a small family, it’s stylish, its running costs are low, many models are very well equipped, it’s great value and it feels really nice to drive.

Renault Captur range and updates

The Renault Captur has been sold in the UK since 2013. The first-generation model was sold until 2019 when it was replaced by a brand-new version.

The latest Captur is available with petrol, diesel, full hybrid or plug-in hybrid power. Petrol and diesel engines are available with a manual or automatic gearbox while hybrids are automatic as standard. There’s lots of trim levels to choose from – the mid-range Iconic is a popular choice.

The earlier Captur is available with petrol or diesel engines and manual or automatic gearboxes. It was updated several times with new on-board tech, engines and trim levels. Indeed, there are 17 trim levels to choose from – Dynamique is the most popular. Trim levels with ‘Nav’ in the name are fitted with sat nav.

Renault Captur tech and features

The Captur comes pretty well equipped with many of the features you are likely to need or want. All models have a touchscreen infotainment system that controls the radio and phone and many models also have sat nav. All versions of the latest model have support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Other features included as standard in many Captur models include air con, cruise control and parking sensors. Some top-of-the-range models even have touches of luxury like heated leather seats for cold days and a panoramic sunroof.

Renault Captur running costs and value

The Captur is very fuel-efficient compared with most small SUVs. In the older version, petrol models can give average fuel economy of 43-56mpg and diesels can give 53-76mpg, according to official figures. Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are also low, so your annual Vehicle Excise Duty charges (car tax) are at the lower end of the scale.

Official figures show the latest version can give an average fuel economy of 42-48mpg for petrol models, 56-58mpg for diesels, 56-60mpg for hybrids and as much as 217mpg for plug-in hybrids.

Renault Captur vs rivals

There are around 30 other small SUVs like the Captur. They include the Ford Puma, the Nissan Juke, the Peugeot 2008 and the Vauxhall Mokka. The Ford feels great to drive, the Nissan looks distinctive, the latest Peugeot has an impressive interior and the Vauxhall is great value. Compared to those, however, the Renault is a strong all-rounder and it’s one of very few small SUVs available with plug-in hybrid power, which could be a significant factor in your decision.

Renault Captur common questions

How practical is the Renault Captur?

However tall you are, you’re unlikely to be short of space in the front of the Captur, whichever version you go for. Back seat space is a bit tighter – quite generous for children but adults who are much more than average height might feel a bit cramped, despite a sliding back seat that you can use to tune the ratio of passenger versus boot space. There are three sets of Isofix mounts and installing a child seat is relatively easy.

Slide the back seat all the way forwards and there’s generous boot space – enough for three large suitcases. Move it all the way backwards and there’s considerably less boot space. Put the back seat somewhere in the middle and there’s enough room to cover most of your everyday needs like shopping trips, school runs and weekends away.

There’s extra space under the boot floor where you could keep things like shopping bags and extra shoes. Or you can remove the boot floor entirely, freeing up useful extra space. The back seats fold down if you need to carry longer or bulkier loads. Hybrid models have slightly smaller boots because their batteries take up some of the space.

How does the Renault Captur compare with other Renault models?

The Captur is Renault’s smallest SUV. Larger models are the coupe-style Arkana, the mid-size Kadjar (to be replaced by the Austral in late 2022) and the large Koleos. Looking at Renault’s other models, the Captur is about the same size as the Clio hatchback.

How safe is the Renault Captur?

Both versions of the Captur were awarded full five-star safety ratings by safety organisation Euro NCAP. Driver-safety features fitted to the latest version include automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist and traffic sign recognition. The older version has fewer driver safety features but it should still protect passengers well if a crash happens.

Are there any hybrid versions of the Renault Captur?

The latest Captur is available with full hybrid or plug-in hybrid power. The E-Tech Hybrid model combines a petrol engine with a small electric motor that can give a few miles of electric range when driving around town. An average fuel economy of 60mpg is achievable – that’s in the same ballpark as you get from many diesel small SUVs.

The Captur E-Tech Plug-in Hybrid also has a petrol engine, a more powerful electric motor and a bigger battery that can give a range of 32 miles driving on electric power. If you regularly recharge the battery (which takes a few hours using a 7kW home wallbox charger) an average fuel economy of well over 100mpg is possible.
