Renault's new Captur: A striking update with sustainability in focus

Nearly four years after the debut of the second-generation Captur, Renault decided to update the model. The changes, similar to those in the smaller Clio, are definitely noticeable.

Recently, Renault has not just tweaked minor details - the updates of individual models have been significant and successful. The Captur is another example. Although the previous version was not unattractive, the new one looks more modern and clearly distinguishes itself from its predecessor.

The French brand completely redesigned the front, featuring a slimmer radiator grille, flatter headlights, and vertical daytime running lights placed in the bumper. There are marginally fewer changes at the back, but the discerning eye will notice the altered light signature and a new bumper.

Of course, the stylistic revisions are complemented by a new body colour and rim designs. The line-up also introduces the sporty Esprit Alpine equipment version with an aerodynamic package and roughly 48 cm rims.

On the inside, which has remained practically unchanged, the main update is to the multimedia system, whose screen now measures roughly 26 cm with a 26 cm digital display. However, Renault emphasizes that it has stopped using genuine leather and chrome and has substituted these materials with recycled alternatives.

The engine range remains unchanged. The base engine is still a 90-horsepower 1.0 TCe coupled with a 6-speed manual transmission. In selected markets, the engine can also be powered by LPG.

A step up, we find a 1.3 unit in 140 and 160-horsepower versions. The more powerful version can be equipped with an automatic transmission. The selection is completed by a 145-horsepower hybrid that combines a 1.6 petrol engine and a 1.2 kWh battery.

Prices and detailed specifications of the new Captur should be announced in the coming months.
