Renault Captur 2020 - Bestseller 2.0? (ENG) - Test Drive and Review
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ต.ค. 2024
- Renault Captur is a b-crossover segment bestseller. The first generation of the French lifted supermini has left the competition far behind. The new Renault Captur has some big shoes to fill. Speaking of big, the 2020 Renault Captur is larger, so as to better compete with other recently launched B-crossovers, like the Skoda Kamiq, which I reviewed recently. The Captur is now 423 cm long, has 264 cm wheelbase, 180 cm wide, and 158 cm high. I will say the Renault looks much more interesting, than the Skoda, but that’s for another episode.

Thanks for watching Marek Drives reviews. If you liked it, here are several other channels you may enjoy: Autophorie, Autogefühl, Bob Flavin, Carfection, Doug DeMuro, Driven Car Reviews, Fully Charged, TheSmokingTire, TheStraightPipes, VINwiki.
Videos are Not only professional and informative but funny, honest and amazing. Well done. Other youtuber gotta learn
I was sitting at work, doing daily routine and got notification that Marek uploaded new video: I was like: "omg, yay it's actually Friday!!!"
I love the look of the new Captur. None of those straight and angular lines of other cars. I'm sure it will be a best seller again
Hi from Bulgaria! Your reviews are very helpful and honest.
Great looking car, far better than its predecessor. Seriously thinking of ordering one later this year. Great review thanks Marek.
The audio control lever position is certainly better than those on the steering wheel. They are always in same place.
Current Renaults looks very attractive for me, but I'm a Honda owner now and I don't recognize most of these complaints in it :) Btw watching this review I realized for what I like them: they put a smile on my face being very informative and useful at same time. Keep it going!
Love your videos Marek. The best car reviews are here folks!
Have a loan of one for a few days. Surprisingly comfortable car. Soaks up bumps very well on poor roads and feels solid. Only thing I noticed it the roof feels slightly low on the inside. I suppose abit of style over substance. However nice car overall.
A very comprehensive review ! Liked your list of negative points that others didn’t mentioned( maybe because they were French journalists?)
Thanks for your honest assessment of the cars. I am tired of the B............. stuff from others reviewers. Nothing worse than dropping big bucks on a car only to find it was reviewed poorly. Thanks for keeping us aware of the real life experience of the cars you review and saving us from the above stresses.
I appreciate that!
No perfect car outhere....
Your jokes were so funny, love your style Marek, really enjoy ALL your reviews. You're doing a great job for us plebs lol!
Thank you Marek for honest and epic review as always, waiting for next review
You are weird! I like you!
Keep up the great work!
Very nice review man! It is hilarious and professional at the same time!
Hope Marek that you’ll be able to test the Ford Puma. Is Always nice to watch one of the best and more rigorous test on TH-cam. Congrats
"Marek"
xeniosaias off course
😂👍 despite you’re sarcasm against the French cars , I like you , and you always puts you’re finger on the most importante things that’s really matters ! Thank U 😂😘👍
French cars are the best now
Alexander Grzx I think you’re right about that 😉👍
Ty for your honest reviews!
Marek reviewing LHD Captur: "I love the drawer glovebox... It's big"
Me driving RHD Captur when it comes to Singapore: "Marek says the glovebox is bi- oh there's the fuse box as usual"
... and a hood release in the passenger seat footwell (like Megane)
good review, keep it up !
Greetings from Serbia! Marek, I must tell you that I'm starting to enjoy your reviews (at first I didn't like your harshness). Very well done. Not a lot of reviewers dare to slant car manufacturers like you do. Keep up the good work!
Thanks.
I realise people looking for a new car sometimes need to be reassured they are making the right choice, but I like to make sure they know what they are getting into.
BTW, today I realised the parcel shelf doesn't fit under the boot floor in my MINI. How ironic! :)
@@MarekDrivesENG Hi, Marek! Just bought the Captur!
Come on, small space in drivers seat? If you'r dressed to explore North Pole, of course...
I'm 1,86cm and 120kg and I feel The space is more than enough.
i guess Im kind of randomly asking but do anyone know a good site to stream newly released series online ?
@Damon Ahmir flixportal =)
@Ernest Nikolai thank you, signed up and it seems like a nice service =) I appreciate it !!
@Damon Ahmir happy to help :D
Looks much better than previous model, exterior and interior. Both Captur and 2008 are really brilliant. Hope you will get DS9 soon. I did my best to like it too, but something is missing.
I got into new Captur.In deed, it is not comfortable the back seats for adults.Head room is too little and it gives you a feeling that you are cramped.However ,the quality of interior is magnifique.
I usually don't like crossovers , but this Little car looks very nice .
I noticed this lag in my Clio V with the same power train as well.
I’m seriously concreting buying the capture (my first car) I was originally told to stay away from Renault as a whole however apparently they have recently improved the quality and reliability a lot. I LOVE the tech in the recent capture and the space is good. However I can’t decide on this or the Skoda Kamiq 🤔 if anyone has any suggestions or experiences please do let me know your opinions. The car is just for me hubby and dogs no children so back seat space isn’t important 🤷♀️
Which did you go with?
@@Adedamilola neither 😂 my test has been cancelled over and over so I still have no license 🤦🏻♀️ I’m hoping to pass on Friday
Skoda Kamig is awesome
Great, smart, funny review. Thanks!)
Glad you enjoyed it!
This slow shifting is outright dangerous... I forsee many parking damages
Yes, this alone can deter me, i think I can easily hate driving it for just this ... ??? Feature??
Sounds really Bad. Hope they will fix this.
This if you buy the automatic.
Shift by wire with Renault electronics... how long before it goes wrong? Possible answer: warranty plus one month= 5 years 1 month?
Its a family car, so there is no need for more leg space. I never drive addults on back seats of my car. Only my kids.
To find not much space in a car named small SUV is not really an issue. The automatic gear changer is the only real issue. Buy a manual
I would consider the Renault Captur a French-Spanish crossover cos it’s made in Valladolid Spain.
Great vid. Subscribed
Awesome, thank you!
I thought you comment was rather negative, yet you say at the end that you and the renault captur would accomodate very well. Now I am curious toward the comment regarding a car you do not like at all or on the other hand a car that you really love. I did miss the humoristic part that you claimed was in your comment.
Its 2020 and in the rear are drum brakes? I expect drum brakes on car from 80's or 90's. Not on brand new car for this amount of money. Only acceptable car brand with drums is Dacia.
@mipmipmipmipmip I worked on both disc and drum brakes and trust me... And it's a lot easier to replace disc brakes. Only advantage is that the drums last longer.
And something like an Aygo
What is the problem with drum brakes? Looks?
@@simeonaleksiev8690 Breaking power? I'd say that's pretty important. They don't stop very well. The old Captur for example was one of the worst cars in class in terms of brakes.
@@georgehuser4711 the braking is actually done mostly by the front discs, so it doesn't really matter.
I had similar issue with gear selector in 2004-2009 Corolla Verso. Reverse gear in this car is switch same as as 1st but you you need add more force and heard beep which comes after couple of seconds. In parking, when you're in a hurry you can easily switch reverse instead of 1st.
By the way when I saw bestseller 2.0 I thought it has 2.0 liter engine (a proper sized engine):)
Marek, test a new peugeot 2008. I think it's a better car!
that was really good review, I'm tired but I'm not bored ;P I've simulate your style of speaking man! Am I wrong ? cheers!
I dont get the complaining about the steering wheel controls. He is right, once your onto using them they are great.
this channel should be called "Marek Abides"
Maybe I should start a second channel, and tell it how it is :)
I only watch car reviews videos to get to see the looks and the specifications...some of the “ negatives “ reported here are not negatives for me or other viewers. About the drum brake...i saw the comments of all the “ experts” ..i will say this, do you really believe that Renault or any other brand would sell a car which will not meet official standards.
Last generation Captur looked horrible, like something made in Vietnam or India.
This new generation looks amazing, however! Too bad it had so many quirks on the inside. Also I thought all cars would have disc brakes all around by now.
Perfect review as always Marek.
Just wait for the Facelift :D
Hi sir could you suggest me which car will be perfect for me under $ 20,000 dollars in india - Kia seltos, Renault capture,Hyundai creata or any Indian brands.. for best mileage, re sale value and built quality and performance...please ..another big question WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS FOR HYBRID CARS ?
I like your style mate.
6:25 Your great coat is guilty for the tight space. 🙂
Thank you for the informative review!
It surely has a classier look than the 2021 Sandero Stepway but with the same engine I cannot understand the price difference...
Even if I take into account that Dacia has fewer sensors and safety features.
My coat is there just to keep me warm. It's tight with or without it.
@@MarekDrives
That was just my attempt of making a bad joke. No hard feelings, I hope...
It is a small car after all.
It's not as big, as it looks. But then it's a B-crossover.
It looks lovely...
Nice looking car... but that shift by wire would drive me mad.
Tell me about it
I only watch this review for your analogies 😂😂
I drive a Renault Captur Dynamic Energy,Comfortable ,Remarkably Quick ,Economical,Cheap to buy Second Hand,the new one to expensive, to fancy and now looks to big..
Nobody can compete with the e-tech phev captur technology range and huge mpg and small co2 figures
2008 has only full electric. No hybrid. No phev. Same 208. 3008 has hybrid4 phev which is twice the captur price
Has anyone actually seen/driven Renault's PHEV?
@@MarekDrives not in production yet
But soon (summer)
I prefer the original 2013/2016 model, to me it looks the best.
I want to buy captur but how much leg room for driver because i go to long trip once per year(4000km)? I think problem for legs is because plastic where gear box . I am 180 cm high
Drum brakes are quite unfortunate at this price.
I like the rest of the car.
The audio control thing is better than stuff on the steering wheel once you get used to it. And if you bought one of these, it doesn't take very long.
nah sorry but they should have angled the touch screen to the driver a bit, nothing I hate more than a touchscreen satnav that is for the driver but not facing them
Hope this comes in India
3:40 😂Marek is stand-up comedy an option?
I once tried doing something life Sniff Petrol, but Polish car people are dead serious :)
I cant help but feeling any car would feel claustrophobic driven in a big thick coat! Was the heater not working?
1. You're not allowed to idle for too long, while parking.
2. I try to eliminate engine noise, when talking in a parked car.
3. Since it was autumn or winter, it is cold enough for exhaust fumes to create steam, which would be visible in some of the shots, so best avoid it.
Ford puma review?
This guy is funny 😄
Ale udało się to autko,jest super.
where is the Anna's review
th-cam.com/video/6DAK4ie0hrg/w-d-xo.html
A lot of money for a posh Duster.Just imagine having that much fly by wire lag in a Typhoon.
What duster? It is built on completely different platfrom.
@@simeonaleksiev8690 According to Wiki they are both built on the BO platform, the longer Logan platform.
@@grahamjohnson4702 I am sorry but you are wrong here, sir. Both Clio V and Captur II share the CMF-B platform. The BO that you have mentioned is indeed used for the Duster but not for the European Captur. Yes there is a B0 Captur, which is for the Russian market, with a longer wheelbase and 4x4 and it is called Kaptur.
@@simeonaleksiev8690 Listen it's a Renault using Renault parts and platforms, the platform is only a small part of it's content and in fact the Duster platform is a Dacia modified BO. All these terminologies are just different ways that the engines, wheels and transmission parts are put together, that is just a simplified way of putting it, just like the VW system. They both use Renault parts but in different configurations, such as the engines have different power, the gearbox has different ratios etc. but it is still an expensive posh Duster.
I want buy captur 1.0 tce but hear that this engine is no more availble. His change is also 1.0 but 67kw and 6 speed. Is this engine ok for town and once per year long trip 3000km motorway ? What is expected lifespan of this engine 1.0 tce can be 300000km possible?
Very very good review
Maybe it wouldn't seem so cramped if you didn't use such a big coat?
I've sat there in a coat, and without a coat. Excuse me, but when it's cold outside people tend to wear coats.
@@MarekDrives sorry dude but you shouldn't wear a coat when you are driving. From automotive engineer's perspective; we don't design cars to be driven with two human-sized coats.
@@Kaankkwho As observant as you are, you probably noticed I'm not actually wearing a coat, while driving. I was recording on a cold and wet morning, and I do not have the luxury of a heated camper van on the set, where I could warm myself over a cup of tea, while my crew is setting up cameras. We do everything ourselves my partner and me. So excuse me, if I don't take my coat of, before I get in the car, because I'll catch a cold, and the I won't be recording anything.
Also, from an automotive engineer's perspective you should know everyone else is not an engineer, and in the winter they will usually drive wearing coats, because it takes 10-15 minutes for the cars to warm up. And they don't want their children to get a cold, because then everyone gets a cold, and everyone is miserable.
So yes, I know you should take your coat off, or at least fasten the seatbelt underneath the coat, but reality sucks.
Hi Marek good review as always, if you had to choose out of these - Puma,..2008..,Kamiq...Captur....?? Reason ?
I haven't even seen a Puma, and judging by my current relationship with Ford Poland it's going to be a while before they let me review one. I'll be driving the new 2008 in a couple of months, so you'll have to wait for my answer.
@@MarekDrives Thank you for your reply, looking forward to your assessment ,regards LB
Great review. Cool looking design. But the clear engineering failures with the wiper coverage, aerodynamic impact on side window water, and the laggy gear mechanism point to an ownership disaster (what are the faulty bits you cannot see?). Also, that glove box is dumb AF. It might be large, but the slot opening is so tiny as to be useless.
You can stop whinging- I am calling the Whambulance!
Renault seem to make some very odd decisions sometimes. Don't get me wrong, I've had lots of Renaults, and currently drive a 2018 Koleos amongst other things. I think Renault are brilliant when it comes to exterior design. And I have to say this updated Captur looks great both inside and out. Especially compared to its rivals in the same sector. But there lies the problem! It *looks* great. When I sat in one recently at my local dealership, I was so disappointed with the perceived quality.
The inside *looks* fine... until you touch (almost) anything. Lots of cheap hard plastic everywhere you touch, the cheap tinny sound of the rear doors and boot when you close them, naff materials used on the upholstery, and so the list could go on. In Ireland and perhaps elsewhere, it's what we refer to as being _"All fur coat and no knickers!"_ I still love my Koleos though!
I haven't heard that expression before. I understand what it is supposed to convey, and at the same time I wish it conveyed something else :)
Is it available in India
Renault🔝🔝💜
great design but they frenched it up didnt they.
Hahah
French make the best technology and design
Well €31000 for drum breaks... No thank you!
Not even Disc Brakes.
Its better than all others cars
@@alexandergrzx300 why are drum brakes better?
Has to do with co2 emissions because brakes and tyres are giving more emissions then the fuel so especially in Netherlands its to keep price low because drum breaks are cleaner
@@techderaudios good to know. Still, I switched from a car with two drum brakes to one with two disc brakes and the difference is huge
Wonder if the captur is still braking good enough
Enjoyed the video but this looks like a top spec car..the basic models tend to be dire particularly the interiors and build quality...I speak as an owner of 2 year old Captur 0.9 Tce expressions :-)...the top speced cars are over priced in my opinion (for a Renault)
Fair enough!
As journalists we rarely see the base models, as carmakers want to show off everything they have to offer.
Why not put the media controls on the wheel like every other make does???
Because the French :)
BTW, I'm currently driving the new 208 and the new Corsa. Opel has audio controls on the steering wheel, but the stick out so much, I keep changing volume half the times I make a big turn. They used a rocker, instead of buttons.
Hello!
I enjoy all your reviews,because of your style.
You remind me,a bit of the old Top Gear,and that is a good thing.
I want to ask your oppinion.
What would you recommend between the kia xceed and the renault captur?
I mean,build quality,sound insulation,ride quality...comfort,the way it deals with bumpy roads.
Wich one would be more suitable for a family of 4 ?
Thank you in advance!!
And keep up the great work!
Thanks.
Xceed, because you get more car for your money. Neither of them is going to be particularly comfortable. If you want something good on bumpy roads look at the Citroen C4 Cactus and the new Citroen C4 (the coupe-crossover one) with hydraulic bump stops on the front suspension. I think the facelifted KIA Stonic may have those as well, but it doesn't feel as comfortable, as the Citroens.
@@MarekDrives Ok,i am planning to buy a kia xceed,with the 1.5 tgdi engine,160 hp.
I also like the design,it looks a bit like a mercedes gla,in my opinion.
And the 7 years warranty it's an advantage.
I saw the c4,it looks nice.
But i lack the confidence in those 1.2 pure tech engines,those used by peugeot and citroen.
I read that there were issues with them,there have been recalls,but they didnt change anything.
Anyway,i will stick with kia,altough we have 2 renaults in the family,bought new.
I feel like kia offers more.
Thank again.
Is there a car out there good enough for you?
Never.
Is it true that Renaults cause a lot of trouble with electronics in the dashboard?
Electronics in general.
@@MarekDrives uhhh loving the new Renault captur 2020 but hearing this makes me want to opt for a Suzuki Vitara instead :/
Конкурент Джили кулрэй
I have the same issue with the side windows about water collection with Grand Scenic 4. On a 4 hr trip, had to clean side windows 2 times because i couldn't see mirrors. I don't know if Renault has a solution for that.
Side wipers? Just like in Andros Trophy :-D
Great car
You buried it....deep
Does the floating console disappear and you lose the storage space if you go for manual?
The lever is still up there, but the lower cubby disappears. I'm linking to a dealer ad - there's a good picture of the center console.

Can you do peugeot 2008?
At 11.23... What went wrong with the lane assist?
I have no clue. It's got a mind of its own.
Bleep/silence/cut out the corona virus part to avoid demonetization
What?! Is this true? Any sources to prove?
@@graycrow Google it.
Sadly its true TH-cam demonitise videos that have words they dont like. Say them enough and your whole channel will be removed for not being "economical"/"advertizer friendly"
What about its ground clearence?
Best seller, sure, but too small for me.
Plenty of fish in the sea :-)
i have never seen a presenter that is such a bad driver he was far to close to the inside kerb he went over the white line four times . something i would have done leanerning to drive. thanks for pointing out the delay in going from drive to reverse
So negative even when u find smt good about the car. Pfff. Clearly biased in favor of German buckets.
I watched a lot of your videos and I think you are slightly more *directly quoting* "sarcastic and down to earth" to French and Italian cars than you are to VAG. It's not about content, mostly, it's about the Jeremy Clarkson-wannabe language which is very repulsive.
I guess its the trend of car journalism, so you can get cars from VAG :)
Maybe zee Germans are not as funny, and they do not make dumb mistakes, when it comes to usability. But you can believe whatever you want. I'm used to being accused of being paid by just about every brand, as soon as I start to praise or criticise something. Just to make one thing clear: I like the Captur to the point, I don't care how crappy it is in some aspects. At the same time I think the Kamiq is a much better car, but it never crossed my mind to buy one.
Renault the best
same platform with new Juke?
Yup.
I see lot of people saying that french electronics are crap..people the french don't make their own electronics..they buy it from a supplier which might be the same as audi bmw or even mercedes, but a lower spec version. So...move on. And Marek you should be banned as a reviwer. You are far far away from being objective. Guess what? I don t like lots of things about french people either, but I wouldn t mock their work. Here you have to review a product and nothing more..
It so happens I have the scirpt, so it takes me a couple of seconds to verify what I said in the review. I used the word "French" twice. Once to avoid saying Renault Captur over and over again (i.e. "French car"), and once to describe the heated steering wheel, which I think is really the first for a French car, at least as far as I remember. Nowhere in this review have I made a point that something is wrong with the Captur, because of it is French. Perhaps it is you, who should seek help, because it sounds like you have some inferiority issues.
@@MarekDrives , my so called by you "inferiority issue" comes from your "review" on the Dacia duster from 5th of may, 2018, where you basically destroyed that car based on your own...issues. That video has more dislikes than likes: 484 dislikes vs 439 likes (never seen that before). I wonder why ? Lot of people with inferiority issues I suppose. So, that says a lot about your opinion on the Renault-Dacia group....
People think they are getting a great deal, but in fact they are getting hand-me-down technology and inferior safety. If this is what they want, that's fine, but I'm not here to tell them they are getting something more, than they are getting.
@@MarekDrives what are better alternatives for an suv similar price range?
18-31k EUR for drum brakes in 2020.
Yeah... Jatco CVT's and automatics... Yeah... Get a manual.
When Renault releases a new model, it should not be bought immediately. It should wait at least a year, and when the complaints of the first buyers about the vehicle are resolved, they should buy it. Renault has done this before ...
French cars + electronics = 🤕🤕🤕
warm hands and a cold butt? … why did you take such a cheap testcar? :-)
Good thing I know the price of this car now so I can avoid people that buy it. They're obviously crazy.
This is too spec with all the extras, base trim costs lot cheaper.
