Costume adventurer for Clio, which summarize here a bit too quickly Renault Captur. And that would be a big mistake. To bury and forget the Modus, Renault has chosen a SUV look outside when he tricks a minivan inside. All in a similar size to that of a Clio. The latter would have anything to fear from its big brother with long teeth?
Look sharp, lighting plus diamond uninhibited and curves assumed. The Captur know immediately catch the eye, as was able to do the Clio IV. With a little more confidence, flirting with the world of SUV: ground clearance is enhanced, and the protections of black plastic wings suggest that the Captur can battle it out in the roads. Nothing but a smokescreen. The Captur is not much better armed than the Clio for Avenure: it is a simple two-wheel drive, which has not even an option, an improved traction control. ESP coupled to the traction is not even detachable to try to get grip in low traction.
With 4.12 m in length (+ 6cm compared to the Clio), but rather the urban jungle that Captur likes to face. Wide uncoated plastic protectors on all versions will, there a role. This urban setting is confirmed by a range of engines not really ambitious. The smallest lighting plus of the Clio, 75 hp mills are evicted. Three engines therefore remain in the program, one diesel, archiconnu 1.5 dCi 90, available in manual or with the double-clutch six-speed EDC. In essence, that is three or four cylinders. lighting plus Two very recent blocks, starting with the 0.9 TCE 90 horses, released lighting plus by the Clio, and a four-cylinder turbocharged 1197 cm3 and 120 horses. The nascent enthusiasm is dampened by the fact that the latter engine is only available with the EDC box. Same rules as for the Clio RS!
Three finishes, Life, Zen and Intens, to use the harmonized Renault names, up the range, not really based on that of Clio. The Life finish ( 15,600 in gasoline, diesel and 17,800) has four power windows, fog lights, the clever sliding rear seat. Zen (+ 1,900) wins a manual air conditioning, hands-free card, 16-inch aluminum wheels, and is entitled to the opportunity to dig into the catalog of customization. It is provided only Clio Zen, which, it has however serial multimedia system with navigation MediaNav. The Captur Intens ( 21,300 TCE 120 and 21 400 in EDC dCi 90) wins the AC controlled, two-tone bodywork, rims alu 17 inches, the parking aid rear, removable seats and the famous MediaNav system. EDC transmission lighting plus diesel engine requires additional 1,400.
Our test is performed in the company of a Renault Captur TCE 120 EDC Intens ( 21,300), enriched techno pack (multimedia system connected R-Link and backup camera) to 800, metallic paint orange Arizona (470 ) , stripping lighting plus the roof (300) and a pack interior customization (250 ). An invoice of 23,120, which begins lighting plus to quantify for a city gas, even versatile and relatively complete.
Unlike rival Peugeot 2008 which shows the entire dashboard of the 208, the Captur is entitled to a unique interior. Found many common lighting plus elements with the Clio, but the general style evolves into good. Damage, Renault retained the hideously painted wheel of the Clio. The central vents migrate lighting plus from either side of the touch screen, which reduces the height of the center console. With a hatch cover has been ground to the top of the dashboard, which is also gaining a glove box-shaped drawer, lighting plus called "easy life", and illuminated by LEDs. With a capacity of eleven liters, frankly ingenious drawer remains easily accessible lighting plus with a passenger installed on his seat.
Another discovery aboard the Captur Currents: the removable seats. Useful for washing machine coating, or possibly change lighting plus the design according to his mood. Remove the cover from each seat takes only a few seconds lighting plus after getting rid of zippers and velcro. I did not go to test the washing machine covers, for fear of finding completely wrinkled. Did not want to go through the iron box for each seat and each folder ... In absolute terms, the quality of implementation of removable system seems honest, nothing more.
