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 second-generation Renault Captur (2020-present) builds on its popular predecessor, offering stylish looks, a comfortable ride, and an elevated driving position. Based on the Clio, it provides greater interior space, with enough room for four adults and a clever sliding rear bench that allows you to trade legroom for boot space (444 litres for petrol models, 362 litres for hybrids). A facelift in mid-2024 brought a redesigned front end and an updated infotainment system.

Engine options include a 1.0-litre TCe 90 petrol and an efficient E-Tech Hybrid system (145bhp), with older versions offering a 1.3-litre petrol and diesel choices. Post-facelift models feature an excellent Google-backed 10.4-inch touchscreen and generous standard equipment. Running costs are low, with the hybrid achieving around 60mpg in real-world driving. While not as thrilling to drive as some rivals, it's a safe, practical, and well-equipped compact crossover.

Best for: Drivers seeking a stylish, practical, and efficient compact crossover; those who appreciate a comfortable ride and modern infotainment; and buyers prioritising low running costs.

Not ideal for: Drivers seeking an engaging, sporty driving experience; buyers needing the largest possible boot space (especially with the hybrid); or those sensitive to some interior build quality issues or a low-resolution reversing camera.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Captur if: You want a stylish, practical, and efficient compact crossover with a comfortable ride, good equipment levels, and a modern infotainment system.

Consider alternatives if: You prioritise a more engaging driving experience, need maximum boot space (especially in hybrid models), desire premium interior build quality throughout, or seek the longest warranty.

Competitive Position: The Renault Captur (2020-present) is a strong contender in the compact crossover market, building on its predecessor's success with improved styling, space, and a refined hybrid option. While it offers a comfortable and practical experience with excellent tech (post-facelift), rivals like the Ford Puma may offer a more dynamic drive, and some competitors boast longer warranties. Its efficiency and attractive pricing make it a sensible and stylish choice for many buyers.
