With the black leather seats, things are a little monotone but you can option two-tone black and orange leather upholstery. The cabin is attractive and well put together with soft surfaces on the dashboard, doors and other touchpoints.

If you need to carry more, the Captur has roof rails to install racks and has a 1200kg braked towing capacity (660kg unbraked). The Captur Intens also comes with a nine-speaker BOSE premium audio system that has a subwoofer mounted in the boot, though Renault points out this is located behind the boot wall and doesn’t take up any space. With the 60:40 split seats folded down, it can hold up to 1275 litres including objects up to 1.57m long.Ī false floor allows you to separate items and the entire cargo area sits above a space-saver spare wheel. This is mostly achieved by the forward-sliding rear seats that can increase load length by 110mm (at the expense of legroom). With a low rear overhang, the Captur also has one of the biggest boots in its class, which is able to fit up to 536 litres, up 81 litres from the previous model. Side vision in the back seats is a little limited as the passenger’s head is in line with the C-pillar, but it's okay when looking a little forward. The Intens also has dedicated air vents located at the back of the centre console along with two USB ports and a 12v socket. There is no fold-down centre armrest and the middle seat will accommodate a small child at best.

Taller people will be happy with the knee-room behind an average-sized driver but will find headroom a bit of a squeeze. The rear seats, which comfortably seat two adults, also have good under-thigh support but the fixed backrest feels a little too upright. It appears to float over a more conventional but low-lying central compartment with the obligatory cupholders, a place to put the Renault keycard and a small tub with a sliding armrest. The Intens is also the only Captur variant to feature the ‘flying centre console’, which juts out from under the dash to house the gear shifter and a place to plug in your phone.

The driver’s seat has power adjustments and a manual lumbar support setting and both seats are heated, as is the leather steering wheel. The Intens comes with leather front seats that are firm but comfortable and feature stylish curved headrests, side bolstering and good under-thigh support. The new Captur is 110mm longer than the previous model, resulting in a 36mm-longer wheelbase that brings an additional 17mm rear knee room and translates to one of the roomiest cabins in its class. What is the Renault Captur Intens like to live with? The Intens stands out in the Captur range with exclusive kit, including a new 9.3-inch portrait-orientated touchscreen, 360-degree parking camera, digital instrument display and a host of other extras which we’ll go into below. Priced from $28,190 before on-roads, the Captur goes on sale here in April 2021 with three variants Life, Zen ($30,790) and the Intens that’s priced from $35,790.Īll come with 113kW/270Nm 1.3-litre four-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine, which gains 22kW/60Nm over the outgoing model to be one of the most powerful in a segment dominated by smaller three-cylinder turbos as per the Ford Puma, Nissan Juke, Kia Stonic GT-Line, Toyota Yaris Cross and Volkswagen T-Cross. In Australia, it’s been a niche seller at best, but this new model brings additional space, power, refinement and a sharper-looking athletic design that should make it more attractive to local buyers. Okay, when I say popular I mean in Europe, where the Captur pioneered the light SUV segment in 2013 and has since dominated it with 1.5 million sales. This is the range-topping variant of the second-generation model of Renault’s popular crossover.
