Instead, this car will offer high levels of comfort, a fair amount of ruggedness, a lot of features and an overall world-class experience without offering a low efficiency. But come to think of it, this is a premium crossover we are talking about here and hence, a stellar average mileage was never the goal of the manufacturer. Well, to put it bluntly, fuel efficiency won’t be the Captur’s forte. Hence, we have a fair idea of the mileage this crossover will offer. Like we have been saying, the Captur will share its engines with the Duster. Renault is now a well-recognized brand in India and we don’t think people would hesitate before spending on a premium product by the French manufacturer. It will be now on the upcoming crossover to repeat the sales success of the Duster. The Kaptur will be likely seen as a smaller sibling of the Koleos, which could never exactly tickle the taste buds of SUV buyers in India. It will even rival the entry- and mid-level trims of the XUV500. At this price point, the SUV will cost as much as the Hyundai Creta. The entry-level variant will cost around Rs 12 lakh, while the fully-loaded trim will cost roughly Rs 15 lakh. That said, this model will cost more than the Duster and sit at least half a segment above. Thanks to a high level of localization, the new crossover won’t come at exorbitantly high prices. The Renault Captur for India is underpinned by the Duster’s platform. You can contact your nearest dealer for more info on the bookings. Bookings for the new Captur SUV will start from September 22. Test drives at authorized Renault dealerships should start in the coming weeks. A festive season debut will help this crossover benefit from the increase in sales of cars. We are pretty sure the Captur SUV will launch in October. However, the company has organized a test drive for us later this month, which does hint at the fact that the launch isn’t too far in the offing. ![]() Renault India is yet to reveal the official launch date of the new SUV. Renault Captur India Launch Date Launch Date (expected) Here’s a detailed look at all the parameters of the new model. Overall, the Captur (Kaptur) manages to impress with its design, specs, features and interior space. The Lock mode offers differential locking mechanism to enhance the off-road capabilities. Internationally, the Captur comes with AWD mechanism that offers three modes – Lock, Auto, and 2WD. However, it doesn’t look like the India-spec Captur would ever get an all-wheel drive system. Automatic variants are likely to follow at a later stage. While the petrol engine comes mated to a 5-speed manual transmission, the Diesel model gets a 6-speed manual unit. The K9K engine is known for its refinement, reliability, and efficiency. The Gasoline engine offers a maximum power of 106 PS while the oil burner outputs 110 PS. The specifications list of the Renault Captur might not feel very special, but trust us, the 1.5-litre engines from the Duster are world-class motors that offer a good mix of performance and fuel mileage. The car offers safety features like front airbags, ABS with EBD, ESC, Disc brakes on all four wheels and ISOFIX mounts for the child seat. ![]() The Captur received 4-star safety rating by Latin NCAP. Bits like a fully-digital speedo console give the dashboard a really modern feel. The dashboard and other panels are made of high-quality materials and the fit-and-finish is world-class. Coming to the interior, the new crossover offers a really upmarket feel and a long list of features. The sleek headlights, together with the rather sporty bumper, give the Kaptur a distinct identity. The highlight of the front-end is the V-shaped front grille that gives this model a really pleasant façade. True, there’s a slight MPV-ish touch to the design but that doesn’t make the crossover too soft from any angle. The new Renault SUV in India looks contemporary and very attractive. The boot space, however, is around 1352-litres with the rear seats folded.Īlso See- Renault Captur vs Kaptur | Renault Captur vs Hyundai Creta | Renault Captur vs Mahindra XUV500 | Renault Captur vs Duster ![]() While the Captur will offer a high interior space, it will be a strict five-seater. The new SUV enjoys a ground clearance of 210 mm, which is something that an average Indian SUV buyer will definitely appreciate. The India-spec model will measure 4,329 mm in length, 1,813 mm in width and 1,619 mm in height. This price premium will be justified through a modern design, a long list of features, decent specs and well-sorted dynamics. However, it’s for sure that the new car will cost a lot more than the Duster. ![]() Renault India will make use of high localization to keep the pricing competitive.
