Been around for a few years, but still among the best of its ilk
Pros Good-looking SUV drives well, handles well, is priced well
Cons Diesels are noisy, entry 1.0 TSI struggles
Pros Big boot and lots of interior space Lots of great engines Fun to drive for an SUV
Cons Could be more comfortable Interior plastics could be better Overall cabin design is dull
If you want a small car that’s well-equipped, relatively spacious and styled like a chunky SUV then the Renault Captur is in with a shout
Pros Cheap running costs Spacious for a small car Funky looks
Cons Noisy diesel engines Not much fun to drive No four-wheel-drive option
The updated Renault Captur is still a looker, and is cheaper to own and run than you might imagine. The flagship Zen is an interesting Hyundai Kona/Toyota C-HR/Mazda CX-3 rival.
Pros Looks great, brimming with character Agile urban dynamics None of your friends own one Cheaper to own/run than you'd think...
Cons No airbags for rear passengers Unsettled over sharp bumps EDC transmission less suitable than a torque-converter-style unit
Pros Spacious Well-equipped Good value
Cons Interior quality Gearbox Limited engine choice
