Meet the updated Renault Captur!

This small SUV has had a mid-life facelift for 2024, and Mat’s about to find out if it can compete with popular competitors like the Toyota Yaris Cross and Skoda Kamiq.

When it comes to the exterior design, there’s no denying the Captur is one of the smartest & stylish small SUVs available. Up front, there’s a pair of smart headlights that flank a blanked-out grille, and there’s a couple of vents to help smooth airflow to the wheels. Along the side the ability to have two-tone side mirrors and a roof help the car stand out, and around the back, the design is kept pretty simple. No fake exhausts or vents - it all looks neat and tidy.

Step inside and there are a number of updates over the previous edition. There’s a large infotainment screen in the centre of the dash that runs on Google, and wireless Android Auto & Apple CarPlay are available. The digital dials have a number of adjustments available, and there are mostly soft-touch materials found throughout. The seats are comfortable, there’s a suitable amount of storage, and the seats in the back can be adjusted as well.

When it comes to engine choices, it’s all pretty simple. The entry-level is a 1-litre 3-cylinder turbo that delivers 90hp, while the car we have here is a self-charging hybrid with a 1.6-litre naturally-aspirated 4-cylinder coupled with an electric motor that can put down 145hp. There may also be a plug-in hybrid released later in the year.

The entry-level Captur costs from £21,095, raising up to £27,995 for the range-topping edition. So is it the best small SUV you can buy? You’ll need to stick with Mat and see for yourself!

    4:33 Maybe it's for the places that like manual transmissions. And I love that Renault is one of the few brands that offers a 6-speed manual transmission on its non-sports-oriented models.

    Renault are so underrated. The Scenic, Austral, Cio and Captur are all brilliant cars that do exactly what they need to without charging the earth.
  • Audio controls behind the steering wheel have always been amazing, you can control everything comfortably without having to shift your hands or take your eyes off the road, Renault owners know this special touch 👌🏼
  • I actually like having a big gear selector in the middle

  • @ONLY1GLITCH3R
    Can we please have a review of the Renault Rafale?
  • My first ever car (Fiat 131 Super Miafiori) had quick recline seats. I agree they are a fantastic feature, especially for a teenager 😉!
  • @predsjednikvlade
    Mat - what is going on with your nose? Did James hit you with that load cover after you changed your mind again? 😂
  • @oliverlondon5246
    That whole sequence about the boot is completely useless as its way too dark to see anything. It’s 2024, not 2004 Carwow
  • @cfwong1d300s
    i prefer the gear selector this way despite it takes up a bit more space
