Renault Captur (2020-present) Pros and Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Practical cabin with its clever sliding rear bench | Not as much fun to drive as a Ford Puma |
| Frugal hybrid model | Elements of interior build quality could be better |
| Excellent Google-based touchscreen system | Poor quality reversing camera |
Quick Summary
The Renault Captur (2020-present) is a stylish and practical compact crossover that builds on the success of its predecessor. Based on the Clio hatchback, it offers more substantial styling, greater interior space, and an elevated driving position. The second-generation Captur features a cleverly designed cabin with a sliding rear bench that allows you to trade rear legroom for extra boot space. Petrol models offer 444 litres of storage, expandable to 1,275 litres with the rear seats down, though hybrid versions have a smaller 362-litre boot. The 2024 facelift introduced a redesigned front end and updated infotainment system.
The Captur is available with multiple powertrain options: a 1.0-litre TCe 90 petrol with 90bhp, a frugal E-Tech Hybrid combining a 1.6-litre petrol engine with electric motors for 145bhp, and on older models, a more powerful 1.3-litre TCe 130 petrol, diesel options, and a rare plug-in hybrid. The latest models feature an impressive Google-backed 10.4-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The Captur rides comfortably, grips well, and returns good fuel economy, though it's less engaging to drive than rivals like the Ford Puma. As a used model, it represents excellent value with generous standard equipment across all trim levels.
Best for: Buyers seeking a stylish and practical compact crossover, those interested in hybrid efficiency, families wanting flexible interior space, and drivers prioritising value and equipment over driving thrills.
Not ideal for: Those wanting the most engaging driving experience, buyers requiring premium interior build quality throughout, or those needing a high-quality reversing camera.

The Verdict
You should buy the Captur if: You're seeking a stylish and practical compact crossover, interested in hybrid efficiency, want flexible interior space, or prioritise value and equipment over driving thrills.
Consider alternatives if: You want the most engaging driving experience, require premium interior build quality throughout, or need a high-quality reversing camera.
Competitive Position: The Renault Captur (2020-present) is a strong contender in the compact crossover market, offering excellent practicality, a clever sliding rear bench, and impressive value. Whilst the Ford Puma delivers a more engaging driving experience and the Skoda Kamiq offers superior build quality and user ratings, the Captur's frugal hybrid option, Google-backed infotainment system, and generous standard equipment make it a compelling choice. The Kia Stonic provides excellent warranty coverage, but the Captur's stylish design and practical interior flexibility give it a distinct advantage for families and those prioritising versatility and value.

(23 reviews)Customers say
The Renault Captur has generally won over drivers with its spaciousness, comfort, and impressive technology features. Many appreciate the comfortable driving experience and spacious boot space, which enhances its practicality. On the downside, some have pointed out the lack of certain features, such as an electronic parking brake, heated seats, and sufficient interior storage. Overall, the Captur serves as a good value option in the compact SUV segment, but drivers have shown a desire for more standout qualities and reliability in some earlier models.

What people say
The car was fine to drive. Adjustable steering wheel position and driver's seat height. Easy to start and drive off. Good visibility, though roof was a bit low when sitting in a high position. Engine was responsive and smooth, with seamless transition between electric battery and petrol engine. Plenty of leg room in the back and boot was spacious, with another storage space underneath. The side mirrors were rather small for a car of this size. Compares favourably with Hyundai Kona, Kia Niro and Toyota Yaris Cross. I might have bought this car had it not been for the pushy attitude of the salesman (Car Planet, Watford) and the derisory offer on the part exchange of our car. Also, the car was very dusty and had obviously not been washed ahead of our visit.
Well finished attractive car really nice drive, small engine great pull.
This is my 2nd Renault Captur. My other is now 9 years old, so I'm really loving all the updated features.
Good car plenty off room for me and the family seats come off to be washed . Does the job
The car is great to drive. High up from road easy to get into if you if mobile problems diesel is best if you drive alot
