NEW RENAULT CAPTUR: the B-segment car for living

Captur is the B-segment “car for living”. It is versatile and multi-talented, both compact on the outside (4,23m) and spacious on the inside, modular to adapt to the uses of customers, equally at home in the city or off the grid.

Its high driving position is appreciated by the customers, allowing easy access to the vehicle and good visibility of the road. All these qualities explain the success of a car that has sold over two million units in 90 countries around the world since its launch ten years ago.

New Captur adopts the new design language initiated by Gilles Vidal, Renault’s Head of Design. Playing on light and matter with taut lines and precise detailing, the new language creates a more stylish and dynamic effect. With its new front end, New Captur gains a more premium look.

New Renault Captur will continue to set the standard in urban SUVs, a market accounting for half of all sales in the B-segment, which itself makes up 30% of the total market. New Captur maintains its versatility, two-tone body colours and generous interior space, along with a range of ingenious high-tech equipment. Alongside these qualities, which are all part of its DNA, new-generation Captur gains a range of new features.

More expressive inside and out, the styling delivers a unique twist of elegance and sporting spirit with the new Esprit Alpine finish. The cabin is showcased by new upholstery and new dashboard screens. Available depending on the version, the OpenR Link multimedia system with Google built-in provides the very best in on-board technology with Android Automotive 12, a world first in the B segment.

The entirely new electronic architecture takes safety to new levels, with a range of latest-generation driving aids including the predictive hybrid driving function and Active Driver Assist, for Level 2 autonomous driving.

Depending on the country of sale, New Renault Captur will be available with a range of five engines, including the 145 bhp E-Tech full hybrid option, already selected by over 41% of customers in France. For enhanced driving pleasure and a more dynamic ride, the running gear has been revised and the power steering recalibrated. Depending on the version, the Extended Grip system optimises traction in all driving conditions.

Still built at the Valladolid plant, New Renault Captur will be available in Europe from April 2024.

NEW FRONT END

The new front end takes on a more elegant, more technological look, with the Nouvel’R one-piece logo built into the multi-faceted grille, and a higher, more horizontal bonnet. All these details underline the stronger identity of New Captur.

The upper part of the grille creates a play of light with its shapes in relief, and the contrast between the dark glossy background and the transparent inserts. This sets off multiple reflections across the radiator grille, like a wave rippling out from the diamond in the centre towards the headlamps and the bumper, with its tiny embossed parallelograms. A mesmerising visual effect created through a meticulous process of design involving light, matter and texture.

For purposes of engine cooling, the front end features a horizontal air intake above the aerodynamic splitter, with another in the bumper. Two air inlets positioned on either side of the front end, next to the daytime running lights, contribute to aerodynamics and the cooling of the front brakes.

This sophisticated new design contributes to the more upmarket feel of New Captur.

NEW LIGHT SIGNATURE

The new front lights feature full LED technology as standard on all levels of trim. In the same way as on New Clio, the LED daytime running lights take on a vertical half-diamond shape, freely inspired by the brand logo. The headlights come to life in a new welcome sequence when the doors are unlocked remotely, creating a friendly, modern effect.

A MORE CONTEMPORARY REAR END

The rear light housing is now transparent, revealing the inside of the lamps. Combined with the new logo and redesigned diffuser, this feature gives the rear end a more contemporary look with a higher level of perceived quality.

THREE OPTIONS DEPENDING ON THE FINISH

The Evolution finish features 17-inch Flexwheel wheel embellishers (17-inch alloy wheels available as an option) with a matt black paint trim on the lower body and beltline long, black front and rear skid plates.

The higher Techno finish features all-new 18-inch alloy wheels and a High Gloss Black paint trim on the lower body and beltline.

The new Esprit Alpine finish is immediately identifiable, with its Ice Black logos, High Gloss Black window surrounds, 19-inch wheels of specific design and size, aerodynamic splitter and front and rear skid plates with Slate Grey matt paintwork.

TWO-TONE BODYWORK: 14 POSSIBLE CONFIGURATIONS

Six body colours are available: Pearl White, Oyster Grey, Starry Black, Gunmetal Grey, Iron Blue and Flame Red. The optional two-tone colour scheme is popular with customers, who can select Highland Grey, Starry Black or Perle Beige for the roof and door mirrors. This last colour is a new champagne hue. It is not available with the Esprit Alpine finish.

New Renault Captur is available in a choice of 14 colourful configurations.

Taking personalisation even further, the optional Exterior Colour Pack includes Highland Grey or Perle Beige door mirrors (High Gloss Black is standard), with front and rear skid plates and side mouldings in Highland Grey, Perle Beige or High Gloss Black.
