We have a Captur late 2023 model. When you said the wheels where diamond cut and looked sharp - I had to chuckle because when I wash our cars wheels, they cut my fingers - no lie.
I have the Megan E Tec Fantastic all around drive A year later it Still puts a smile on my face even before I get in it No other car I have owned has ever come close to being as perfect Renault are kicking it out the park
Very interesting review Nobby, I have a three year old Clio E tech hybrid and the change from battery to engine is seamless, so I find it interesting that you say that isn't the case in the Captur. Prices here in UK seem fairly competitive and the looks are a vast improvement over the previous model. I'm looking at changing because for me the seats in my Clio, like most small car seats these days, are far too firm, at least for my meagre frame - why can't we have soft, comfortable seats in cars ?! Great stuff, keep it up.
Have to admit, Renault cars are so well designed of late, not overly designed but just nice and refined. Not an EV fan but my Mom has a Renault Megane E-Tech which has surprised me as it drives very nicely and for local trips like shopping etc, it does make sense so long as you have a home charger.
Seen some other euro reviews of the esprit Alpine spec having sunroof and 360 degree cameras. Renault UK just list rear view camera not 360 degree and no option for a sun roof on highest spec Alpine. How did you find rear camera resolution as some reviews mentioned it being quite poor?
Absolute superb suv, had my petrol version in grey for a month now and can’t stop driving it, speed alert is a bit annoying and can’t seem to work out if you can disable it yet and so many gadgets it will take me a year to work that out too, but love the looks, very stylish and great all round car!
Nice review. We have a Fiat 500x and if we wanted the same size car, then it would be a Captur (Or a Megane) but we need something a bit bigger this time, so I'm interested in the Symbioz and Austral which I really like, Mind you, if we could get a way with a smaller car, I'd look at the Clio or even the 5. Renault have really cracked it and have the best range of cars for a decent price at the moment.
@@NobbyOnCars Im going from the S Edition 1.3 TCE to this , so was a little apprehensive and its my first auto too , I suppose I will get used to it , the test drive did impress me to be fair !
A very nice looking car inside and out. I thought you were going to say 'you can give yourself a hernia' and not 'you can give yourself quite a bit of extra space' when moving that back seat :P I'll die on this hill but car back seats should be removeable, not just moveable. I've no facts to back this up, but the back seats get very little use in many cars.
A very expensive vehicle for day to day running around. Yes it has fancy seats, media etc. with all the tech you would want or need. However is it 10-15 grand better than a Sandero Stepway ?
The styling is a bit ho-hum more of the same, if they _really_ want to make things bigger...I'd love to see an enlarged Renault5..even into another segment. Everything old is new again.

Nothing worse than those kinda cuts either
I have the Megan E Tec
Fantastic all around drive
A year later it Still puts a smile on my face even before I get in it
No other car I have owned has ever come close to being as perfect
Renault are kicking it out the park
Cool looking car I think!
38k is a fair old wedge for that version, which at the end of the day is a jacked up super mini. Nice review.
Lot of money for the best looking one alright!
Not sure where 38K comes from... we just bought the Esprit Alpine for 28K (GBP)

Very nice car. Renault, please do not kill the 1.33 engine. Please!!!

There’s some buttons to the right of the wheel (assuming RHD) and you can setup your saved favourites via same.
Nobby 👍 great review, Renault is making stylish looking vehicles

A very good looking car and love the colour
Waiting for mine to arrive, Alpine in red , the Auto gearbox and transmission to petrol sounds like a worry ?
It could be a little smoother at times like kickdown on a motorway but it’s not a constant issue
@@NobbyOnCars Im going from the S Edition 1.3 TCE to this , so was a little apprehensive and its my first auto too , I suppose I will get used to it , the test drive did impress me to be fair !
If it’s anything like the Arkana hybrid I wouldn’t worry. I find mine smooth. The only time I notice the change is at standstill.
@@Dazzaisaac well .. picked it up today , its brilliant!!! , no issues at all with any lag , drives brilliantly , thanks for your reply to my comments
@@rikmodeler6723 happy motoring

Thanks 👍

Prob needs some grease on the runner!
It's a full hybrid not a mild hybrid?
They’re all mild to me unless you plug them in
Nice car. Nice location. I must get out there for a walk.
It stank yesterday but generally it’s nice, yes! 😀
Hi Nobby, Are you going to review the Symbioz? I know it's just a (slightly) stretched version of the Captur, but I need the extra boot space.
I will as soon as I can get into one
Symbioz coming soon?
Next for me on the channel will be Renault 5!
A very expensive vehicle for day to day running around.
Yes it has fancy seats, media etc. with all the tech you would want or need.
However is it 10-15 grand better than a Sandero Stepway ?
Personally, I prefer a slightly smaller car. My current one is a Renault Zoe!!
Remember when Renault was a GOOD car company with exciting cars
Nice Car but it's a Renault! I've never seen so many cars in garage at anyone time than Renaults.
The styling is a bit ho-hum more of the same, if they _really_ want to make things bigger...I'd love to see an enlarged Renault5..even into another segment. Everything old is new again.
They cannot TOUCH the R5 ✋🏻😉
Far too expensive new, good 2nd high buy I bet
Great video Mark
Thanks 👍
