The model
Read full Renault Captur reviewThe Renault Captur is well priced, comfortable, has a great infotainment system and is one of few small SUVs with sliding rear seats. It’s only average to drive though, and interior quality could be better. Unless you do a very high mileage or run a company car, the cheaper TCe 90 petrol offers better value than the E-Tech Hybrid. Mid-spec Techno is our pick of the trims.
The trim
See full equipmentWe'd avoid range-topping Esprit Alpine trim, because this removes one of the Captur's most appealing strengths: it's low price. Mind you, it certainly comes with plenty of kit.
The engine
See full engine specsThis 141bhp 1.6-litre hybrid is much more expensive than the regular petrol, and the way it delivers its power is slightly inconsistent. We don't think it's worth the extra, even though it offers much better fuel economy.
