Why is the Renault Captur a good car?

 The Renault Captur boasts a modern, rugged design while retaining its elegant and stylish appearance. Its aesthetic appeal sets it apart from other comparable small SUVs.

According to Renault, the Captur is the perfect blend of style, practicality, and efficiency.

When it comes to the interior, the Captur doesn't disappoint. It has a comfortable, spacious cabin and a large modular boot, perfect for family getaways or city shopping sprees. Inside, it's finished with high-quality, soft-touch materials and features a high driving position for excellent visibility of the road ahead.

The Renault Captur has one of the largest engine choices of its class, available in petrol, full hybrid or plug-in hybrid options. Choose a model with E-tech technology to reduce fuel consumption, running costs, and emissions, which is particularly advantageous if you do a lot of city driving.

You don't just have to take our word for it about how great the Renault Captur is either, as it has collected several awards over the years, including the "Small SUV of the Year 2021" by Auto Express, the "Best Car for City Drivers 2021" by AutoTrader, and the "Best Small Family Car 2021" by CarBuyer.

What features does a Renault Captur have?

The Renault Captur has plenty of modern features to get excited about. This compact SUV boasts cutting-edge technologies that make it a standout choice for anyone seeking convenience, comfort, and safety.

Cutting-edge technology – One of the highlights is the 9.3" portrait Easy link touchscreen, offering an intuitive interface for navigation, entertainment, and vehicle settings. Adding to the ease of use is the hands-free keycard, which enables keyless entry and creates a seamless experience from the moment you approach the car.

Driver-assist technology – Driving a Renault Captur means enjoying a heightened sense of safety, thanks to its suite of driver-assist technologies. These include front and rear parking sensors, emergency brake assist, lane departure warning/lane keep assist, and cruise control. Other features include automatic headlights, rain-sensitive front wipers, and automatic air conditioning, allowing you to focus on the road.

Customisable on-board experience – The Captur also offers a functional on-board experience that can be customised to each journey's needs. Features include a smart cockpit, sunroof, sliding and folding rear bench seat, and various storage compartments.

Colour range – Last but not least, the Renault Captur is available in a wide range of colours, allowing you to select an option to suit your style.

Is the Renault Captur a good family car?

Space and safety are usually at the top of the priority list when choosing a family car. The Renault Captur ticks both boxes, making it an ideal choice for small families.

Space

The Renault Captur can easily fit two adults and two kids' car seats, with space between the kids' seats. It is equipped with ISOFIX child fixing points on the front passenger and rear outermost seats. This allows for secure and simple installations of child car seats.

One standout feature that makes the Captur particularly family-friendly is its versatile rear seating. The rear seats can be slid backwards or forward to suit your needs for each journey. If it's legroom you're after, you can slide the seats back, or if you require additional boot space for family holidays, the seats can be slid forward. With the rear seats slid all the way forward, you're looking at about 536 litres of boot space. Even with the seats slid backward, you still have a spacious 422 litres. It's worth noting, however, that boot space is reduced in the hybrid and plug-in hybrid models.

Safety

Safety is a primary concern for any family vehicle. The Renault Captur has a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, making it one of the safest cars in its category. Driving is made simple and safe using the Captur's comprehensive range of driver assist and safety technologies, including autonomous emergency braking and lane keep assist.

Whether it's the daily school run, weekend sports clubs, or family holidays, the Captur is built to accommodate family living.

How much is a Renault Captur?

If you're sold on the benefits of the Renault Captur and think it sounds like the perfect car for your lifestyle, then the next question is whether you should buy or lease.

While buying a car offers the benefit of ownership, it also comes with a very high upfront cost and potential depreciation concerns. Let's look at why leasing might be the best option for you.

A new Renault Captur has an RRP of between £22,495 and £32,495. If this isn't within your budget, leasing presents a far more affordable alternative. At LetsTalk Leasing, our Renault Captur lease deals start from just £283.24 per month. When you choose to lease rather than buy, you can benefit from the latest features, safety technology, and fuel-efficient engines without the substantial upfront cost.
