Product Overview

Renault Captur Mk2 is an entry-level subcompact crossover in production from 2019. It is available with a range of inline-3 and inline-4 engines that displaced 1.0 to 1.6 liters.
An exceptionally ugly vehicle inside and out, the Mk2 Captur is proudly less ugly than the Nissan Juke, with which it shares much of the underpinnings: another achievement of the Renault team.
The plug-in hybrid drivetrain can help the owner save on fuel and car tax, though those who plan on keeping the car after warranty should be mindful of the complexity.
The official fuel economy rating is exceptionally rosy, though it may cast more doubts on the trustworthiness of the regulators and perhaps the owner's own sanity than it relates to reality.

External Reviews

autocar[1]

Reviewer score 60% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from autocar have found:
The new Renault Captur feels more structurally robust, better insulated, more cushioned, quieter and decisively better finished. The cabin’s extra width, a mildly high-rise driving position, comfortable front seats and the new-found civility make journeying fairly painless. The option of traffic jam assistance, enabled via radar-governed cruise control, and lane centring – both firsts in the segment – are appealing.
Pros
  • Comfortable to drive
  • Decent infotainment system
  • Good standard equipment
Cons
  • Lack of practicality
  • Alternatives are more fun to drive

Reviewer score 68% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from autoexpress have found:
The Renault Captur has undergone a complete overhaul to help it stand out in an increasingly competitive crowd of rivals. The new five-door Captur is 110mm longer, 19mm wider and 17mm taller than the model it replaces, adding much-needed interior space for the family. It sits on the same CMF-B platform as the latest Clio, which can only be a good thing - bringing extra quality to the way the Captur steers and a comfortable ride for all on-board.
Pros
  • Stylish looks
  • Comfortable to drive
  • Good standard equipment
Cons
  • No four-wheel-drive option
  • Expensive compared to rivals
