I bought Renault Captur and I’m very happy,very nice car
Fast forward 2026- I imagine someone watching this and trying to figure out why he wants to hide a hand sanitiser and a toilet paper under the boot floor 😂

Agree, and in my country Renault actually gives you a small lether wallet for the key so you can carrying it with your driving license and other car's documents which works great for me personally and I never actually put the key in my trousers nor looking for a space to put it in the car as they always stay in my backpack.

Many people find the key design hilarious, especially when I hand the keys to the valet. But they don't appreciate how nice to carry the key in the pocket.
Underrated car. Looks great.
This car looks and feels like a truly funky, stylish and premium product, as opposed to the drab Audi Q2.
The French are knocking out some funk looking cars.

We rented a reno captur, we are amazed how nicely stilled and all off the tech elements.
Another excellent video, good to watch a decent well pitched review. I think that key design was started with the Laguna II back in the early 2000s. Always like the way that Renault pack in a lot of tech for your money.
Big fan really appreciate your each and every review
Best review I've seen so far. Thank you!
Really enjoying this guy's videos. Thanks Tucker.
Nice car, and a very watchable, informative review. With Rory here, Mark at HJ, Jonny at Carpervert, Fully Charged, and SavageGeese, I've got the my top 5 car channels sorted..
Succinct and to the point, I really like your video reviews...
I drove this car today, it is sooooo lush
Another excellent review Rory !
Hey Rory, I noticed you have a sunroof spec on this car, and the reversing cameras... Can you tell me if these features are additional/optional extras?
Drove the plug-in hybrid version for 2,000km in Iceland, great performance and economy and overall hugely practical and fun.
Great review as usual thanks

I own a 2015 model which looks fab from the outside, drives well, is well equipped and cheap to run but the interior quality lets it down. This new one on the other hand looks AWESOME on the inside and the dash looks SO COOL. I'd love one when I trade mine in.

Similar issue with previous Captur on takeoff due to dual clutch. However, once you get used to it, I have found it is less of an issue. I don’t think it is a deal breaker. Really like the new changes and can’t wait to take it for a test drive. We have no issues with the old one and it is an easy car to live with. Great job Renault!
Great review.Though, it seems that next to the front USBs there is an audio jack port to connect your sound source, not the 12V.
Very useful review, better than usual :-)

Lol No silly touch screen to worry about I like the way you say that Rory
It's an improvement on the older model, however I do prefer the Juke out of the two, although neither are great or best in class just now.
I have the capture with a manual box..not sluggish at all..i did so far 4000km, including driving to Greece from Germany and back..really nice car, very happy with it. The emergency breaking saved me twice in Italy..the car stoped before my foot hit the break pedal...the 7 hour drive from my house in Germany to Ancona in Italy was a piece of cake..very comfy seats. I dont understand why all cars should be sport cars..anyway..it is a nice car, practical and a looker indeed..
Thank you for this great review. Looking out for a Captur actually, for me best car "all extras in" for city driving and decent motorway traveling. Do you think the panorama roof is worth the extra money?

Love the design... one of the better looking CUVs now on the market. Wish they sold it here in the US. Renault is improving their lineup every generation and making many of them far more desirable than some of VWs offerings. I still think Cupra is top of the class in looks. Those cars are gorgeous even with the new silly logo that looks like a super-hero insignia from a comic book that no one buys.

Hey Rory, will you please tell us about its sound system, for example what make its using, how many speakers and bass, if any...because theres us audiophiles who just want to buy a car with good sound aswell as the other features and comfort. :)
Thanks mate. Getting one.
Great review but as this car is mainly purchased by families, it would be useful if you make the review attaching a baby car seat (They take huge amount of space) and a pram in the boot. (Main reason I am looking for a new car) :)

Nice review bro...
On the engine being slow pulling away , Are u possibly talking about the automatic gearbox and not the engine ,The manual gearbox car has no problems pulling away briskly, then on to handling ,I think this is journalist speak for driving on the edge, if u look at the number of wrecked pumas compared to capturs ,most people wouldn't complain about the captur ,infact if u want your fillings to fall out get the puma ,fords idea of handling is rock solid suspension, on reliability I think the 1.3tce will out live any ecoboost
Car is sluggish due to automatic gear box, not an issue on the manual version. Rory missed an important point here the car shown is the top spec model s edition so all the bells and whistles. Why is there no mention on pricing?

I have the manual version and it is sometimes very sluggish accelerating from a stopped position. It’s a car that definitely needs you to keep the momentum going.
Renault very impresive look, new line design
if they make new Kadjar and Koleos as good as this Capture improvement now that will be best sellers also.
All eyes on me! 😜👍🏽 Bose sound system?
Aware that this is a year old by I wonder where he got his jacket from? Really like it!
"Gold bullion, hand sanitizer, toilet rolls." Gold bullion largely useless at the moment if you can use it to get the other two LOL. Great review Rory. I'm not a massive fan of these jacked up hatchbacks, but as you say, it's a good looking beast.
What's the title of the music at 4:28?
I have the 2020 model and my only problem I have with the car compared to my old 2014 model, is the ECO mode, every time you start the engine, you have to go through the options to switch Eco mode on, especially when doing a lot of in town driving.
Bought a Renault Megan sport back in 2008 it was built like tank, but didn't ride like one and it was fast as hell,
The Captur is a car with so much French flair that you either like for its funkiness or hate for being too much French. I think its really cool especially in the two tone colour paintwork and I totally agree with Rory Reid-its a good compact cross over. However, by looking at the front headrests, you'd probably think you are in a Volvo-some imitation there. Thanks Rory for your fair, objective, informative and mostly entertaining reviews.
Just bought one,like a lot but wish I had got red with Black roof against my grey and black roof, but it is nice!
Awesome delivery
Great video! Has anybody drove the TCE 155 version? How does it compare to the TCE 130?
What would you recommend as a competition and choose Step away ,Clio, Peugeot or maybe other ?
gonna trade in my clio gt gt (grandtour for the motor 120 PS, 2nd grandtour because its a mini combi) for a Capture with 155 Ps. Iam so stoked when it will arrive. 35.000€ automatic, leather, all assistance and glas roof that can be open. Everything i ever wanted from a car.
Renault design direction is fabulous, all their cars look great these days imo..

Its not just a Tweak and a new front, its all new built on a brand new platform.
I can’t decide between this car or the Skoda Kamiq 🤔 I absolutely love the captures technology but the Skoda boot space is very impressive 😬 anyone have this capture? I here’d that Renault have improved their reliability and quality recently otherwise I’d of NEVER considered a Renault I always wanted a Kia Sportage but this capture looks like it tops the sportage by a good few miles 🤷♀️ would love some genuine reviews though?
Most people that will drive this car cannot drive like Rory so can't enjoy a fantastic handling car like it can be enjoyed. That is why they will buy a Renault Captur and be over the moon with it.
It looks nice. Nice design.
Wow I never thought the day would come where Rory and Autotrader would do a review on a non performance vehicle... still European but something different
It looks really cool. Purposeful and sporty, even butch. But for me, it really needs to have a lot more 'go' to compliment all that 'show'. I'll wait for the Renaultsport version... or probably go for the Puma ST when that comes out.
Why did you not show the steering wheel and instrument cluster... Nor did you show bottle space in the doors...
This car is such good value for money
Bring it stateside... nice looking little car.
Its really sad to see that Renault discontinued Captur in India.
What's the difference between using your mobile phone when driving and using that centre console while driving? Its just a big phone.
If the dash is a hard cheap scratchy plastic then is a deal breaker for me. I loveee soft touch interior. One of the best looking crossover

I know this was 3 years ago, but was looking at them as a used buy. Might sound odd, but drum brakes on every model at the rear is a deal breaker for me. Even the crappiest cheap hatch has safer and more efficient disk brakes all round.

They hate Renault here in the United States but I have to say they make nice looking vehicles.
Just hired this for a few days, the most dangerous feature is that slow response to acceleration. Almost out me in several dangerous situations- they need to fix this issue. There is either a very slow gradual acceleration or an instant and fast one after 1-2 seconds of your foot going down. Seriously bad. Don’t recommend for that reason but otherwise a nice little car.
@spiritzen

The other major issue is the start/stop, when it stops it doesn’t start unless you press the accelerator down and only moves after a 1.5-2 seconds, that’s far too long when you’re trying to drive off with cars behind you! The car should creep forward as soon as you let the break go. Very annoying.
The English say that Ford is the best. Good thing I suppose, because if they did not, no one would
