Key quotes
· 5 pulledThe Renault Captur is one of those vehicles that seems to understand modern life.
It is compact enough to squeeze through tight city streets and fit into awkward parking bays, yet spacious enough to handle shopping bags, luggage and a weekend away without complaint.
Spending time with it revealed just how well Renault has balanced practicality with personality.
The latest Captur brings a sharper and more purposeful design.
The front end now features a bolder grille, a sculpted bonnet and redesigned bumpers that give it a more mature presence on the road.
