Introducing the New Renault Captur: Clio’s Bigger, Tech-Savvy Sibling
Renault proudly unveils the new Captur, an advanced and stylish evolution of its popular model. This new version, often dubbed Clio’s big brother, boasts cutting-edge technology and adopts Renault’s latest design language. A striking front end with full LED lights sets the stage for its sophisticated appearance.
Cutting-Edge Infotainment and Connectivity
The new Captur features the innovative OpenR Link infotainment system with Google built-in, based on Android Automotive 12. This system is accessed through a sleek 10.4-inch vertical touchscreen, delivering a highly intuitive user experience. Complementing this is a 10.25-inch digital instrument display, offering a connected and customizable interface for the driver.
Connectivity is a key highlight, with USB-C sockets, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and a wireless smartphone charger included as standard across all trims. These features ensure that the Captur stays at the forefront of automotive technology.
Sustainable and Spacious Interior
Renault has focused on sustainability in the Captur’s interior design, using recycled fabrics for the upholstery and eliminating leather and chrome. This approach creates a welcoming and eco-friendly cabin atmosphere.
The Captur leads its class in interior space, especially for rear-seat passengers, thanks to a rear bench seat that slides up to 16 cm. It offers impressive in-cabin storage of 24.7 litres and a boot volume that ranges from 616 litres to a massive 1,275 litres with the rear seats folded down.
Powertrain Options
The Captur provides two engine options: a 1.0-litre TCe 90 turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine and a 1.6-litre E-Tech full hybrid 145. The hybrid model is particularly noteworthy, offering fuel economy of up to 60.1 mpg and CO2 emissions as low as 105 g/km.
Enhanced Driving Aids and Trim Levels
The new Captur is equipped with up to 18 new-generation driving aids. A standout feature is the Safety Shield button, allowing drivers to instantly personalize their safety settings. Available in three trim levels – Evolution, Techno, and Esprit Alpine – each variant offers a unique blend of features and styling elements.
Available Now
The new Renault Captur is available for order now, starting at £21,095, with the first deliveries expected in Q3 2024. Its versatile nature, combining compact exterior dimensions with a spacious and high-tech interior, makes it an appealing choice for a wide range of drivers.
Exterior and Interior Design Highlights
The new Captur exudes an athletic and premium vibe, featuring Renault’s Nouvel’R logo on the multi-faceted grille, a higher bonnet, and full LED lighting as standard. The interior continues the modern theme, with the OpenR Link system, multiple USB-C ports, and new upholstery options that emphasize both comfort and sustainability.
