The diesel range is built on Renault’s turbocharged 1.5-litre four-cylinder Blue dCi engine. A six-speed manual is available on the lower-powered model, which decreases economy to 44.1mpg. Both versions are offered with a seven-speed dual-clutch auto gearbox, offering a claimed economy figure of 44.8mpg for either unit. The engine produces a maximum output of 99bhp and 160Nm of torque and gives the Captur and claimed fuel economy figure of 47.1mpg.Ībove that site a 1.3-litre four-cylinder petrol engine with either 129bhp and 240Nm of torque or 153bhp and 270Nm of torque. Entry-level cars are fitted with a 1.0-litre three-cylinder TCe petrol engine and a five-speed manual gearbox.

However, in place of the bulky plug-in battery sits a more compact 1.2kWh unit. Like the current Clio E-Tech hybrid, the upcoming Captur hybrid is likely to share its 1.6-litre combustion engine, gearbox and electric motors with the PHEV. It’s priced from £31,495 and comes with 18-inch alloy wheels, a model-specific white insert for the dashboard, exclusive cloth upholstery with blue stitching and a range of copper and blue inserts for the car’s front bumper, front wing and C-pillar. ![]() However, the French brand also offers a more generously equipped Launch Edition variant, which features a handful of cosmetic tweaks. With the exception of some extra badges and a larger 10-inch instrument binnacle, Renault’s £30,995 E-Tech plug-in hybrid model shares the same basic equipment as the Captur S Edition. The cabin gets a lift too, with faux leather upholstery, an auto-dimming rear view mirror, a wireless smartphone charger, a larger 9.3 infotainment system and a seven-inch digital instrument binnacle in place of the standard car’s analogue unit. It builds on the Iconic’s specification with the company’s trademark C-shaped LED daytime running lights, a set of diamond-cut 17-inch alloy wheels, front and rear parking sensors, a blind-spot monitoring system and a shark-fin antenna mounted on the roof. Renault’s flagship S Edition is priced from £22,095. ![]()
