The model
Read full Renault Captur reviewWe can see the appeal of the Renault Captur’s affordable starting price, but by the time you get an engine with enough power coupled to the right trim, it doesn't look quite such a bargain. What’s more, the Puma is a better all-rounder and the Kamiq more comfortable and practical. If you do get one, we recommend the E-Tech Full Hybrid 145 in Techno trim.
The trim
See full equipmentThe entry-level trim gives you plenty of standard equipment, including 17in alloy wheels, keyless start, LED headlights, automatic climate control and cruise control. You also get a 7.0in touchscreen infotainment system.
The engine
See full engine specsThis 1.3-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol is the best all-round engine in the range, pumping out 138bhp. It's not as quick as the Ford Puma 1.0 Ecoboost 155 MHEV but acceleration is still surprisingly brisk with 0-60mph taking around 10 seconds. You can opt to have the TCe 140 with a manual or automatic gearbox.
