First there was Duster. No, first there was Renault. Then a creation appeared that gained unprecedented popularity. The main reason for the popularity was the price, as well as the lack of alternatives. Like that joke about mice who cried but gnawed on a cactus.
After that, I must admit, the company went, to put it mildly, not very well. Logan is not the same, Sandero was always behind, but Duster still has chances. But only the French decided not to give it. They decided to create a new crossover that would be just as simple, repairable and cheap, but only in a guise that would not require the driver to self-flagellate every day. This is how the new Renault Captur appeared.
Renault Captur design
To begin with, the crossover does not cause a gag reflex, like most of the company's creations, it is really beautiful. Further - he is not like anything. Yes, there are some features of Koleos, but all models of all companies have a corporate style. And by this, there is practically nothing to complain about.
So let's start with the muzzle. Here we have stylish LED running lights, well-developed bumper air duct muscles, as well as a lower lip in the form of a bumper. The grille flows stylishly towards the head optics that don't look like they were pulled from the last century. From here, one cannot fail to notice that in many trim levels the crossover will be painted along the glazing line in one color, and higher in another.
The profile is perhaps the nicest side of the new Renault Captur. It has everything you need for a full-fledged crossover that wants to conquer a leading position at the top of sales. This applies to massive wheel arches, which literally inflate both forward and backward, undulating stamping on the side, which, in addition to the aerodynamic one, also plays a reinforcing role. Right there in a circle there will be plastic protection, which is significantly raised in the area of u200b u200bthe doors.
The stylish alloy wheels are available in three designs. The glazing line rises smoothly to the stern, which made it possible to create an original stencil for painting the car. The new 2016 Renault Captur has LED taillights that extend slightly over the rear arches. A small roof spoiler completes the picture, however, it is unknown if it will interfere with the view with such a small rear window.

Renault Captur interior
The new Renault Kaptur from the outside completely got rid of the association with Duster, but inside it somehow did not work out. Consumer-grade plastic, the smell of Duster and Logan, air vents and multimedia with navigation from the same place. Otherwise, this is a completely new model that will appeal to the female half of the population, especially when the version on the variator is released, but more on that later.
The seats here are new, they are quite comfortable chairs, sitting on which you can spend several hours almost without fatigue. What really catches the eye is the dashboard. It's completely new, almost graphical. There are two large wells, but they contain a tachometer and a fuel gauge. The speedometer is represented by an electronic scoreboard in the center, above it the space is reserved for the on-board computer, which will already be in the basic configuration.
In the European version of Kaptura, the glove compartment is made in the form of a box, fixed on full retractable hinges, while we have a traditional hinged lid. The center console is made in an atypical style for Renault. It is partially painted to match the body color. In general, such inserts can be found throughout the cabin. The Media Nav kit hasn't changed a bit, nor has the climate control unit. The base will only have an air conditioner, but that's enough. On the console, you can also see the engine start button, already in the basic configuration. But the manufacturer has not been honored to adjust the steering wheel for departure, which the fans have been waiting for.
The back sofa is really roomy. The roof does not roll towards the rear, as has become traditional for most crossovers, which allowed additional headroom for a tall passenger. The seats are adjustable longitudinally, although the option is dubious, it is, rather, made not for passengers, but for the trunk. As for him, 387 liters will fit in the normal position of the rear row, and if you fold them down, you get 1200 liters. Not to say that the result is grandiose, but good.
Renault Captur: specifications
So, the New Renault Captur 2016 is the good old Duster, with all its technical ailments. Let's start with the jambs that we fixed. We can talk forever about an impenetrable suspension, so you shouldn't even stutter. But the steering is worth mentioning. The manufacturer changed the gearbox and power steering, which made the steering more sharp and predictable. An electro-hydraulic booster is installed on 1.6, hydraulics are placed on the two-room.
In general, it should be said that the B0 platform, which, as it seems, will never leave the French assembly line, has been significantly modernized, and now it is called Global Access. As a suspension for all-wheel drive versions, MacPherson strut is offered at the front, a multi-link at the rear, and front-wheel drive versions differ in that they have a beam at the back.
As for the engines, there are no new products here either. The base motor has an old 114 horses in the herd. This is the same modernized Duster motor that develops 156 Nm of torque. Kaptur breaks up to a hundred with him in 12.6 seconds on the mechanics, and in 12.9 seconds on the variator. Consumption also varies slightly, only in the other direction. So, the new Renault Kaptur on the mechanics will gobble up 6.4 liters, and on the variator exactly 6.
All-wheel drive is only offered for the two-liter engine. He develops the same 143 horses, in exchange for a hundred he asks for 7.3 liters in a mixed cycle. Such an engine can be equipped with an automatic machine or a mechanics, the drive is exclusively full.
As for the machine, there are no miracles. An old but not very kind, judging by past models, automatic machine is installed here, which is able to turn off the engine, drive the driver out of himself, dull, kick, but just not switch gears at the right time. But, you can't argue, this is an indestructible box that will last a long, very long time.
