2021 Renault Captur pricing and specs detailed: New Hyundai Kona, Volkswagen T-Roc and Skoda Kamiq rival emerges

The Captur will return to Renault Australia showrooms in April.

Renault Australia has released pricing and full specification details for the second-generation Captur small SUV, which is due in showrooms in April.

The Nissan Juke relative and Hyundai Kona, Volkswagen T-Roc and Skoda Kamiq rival is offered in three grades: entry-level Life ($28,190 plus on-road costs), mid-range Zen ($30,790) and flagship Intens ($35,790).

Standard equipment in the Life includes front and rear skid plates, dusk-sensing LED lights, 17-inch alloy wheels, a 7.0-inch touchscreen multimedia system, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support, a six-speaker sound system, a 4.2-inch multifunction display, paddle-shifters and black cloth upholstery.

Advanced driver-assist systems extend to autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, lane-keep assist, traffic sign recognition, a reversing camera, front and rear parking sensors, and tyre pressure monitoring.

The Zen adds two-tone paintwork, rain-sensing wipers, auto-folding side mirrors, a heated steering wheel, keyless entry, a wireless smartphone charger, climate control, blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert.

The Intens also picks up a portrait 9.3-inch touchscreen multimedia system.

Meanwhile, the Intens also picks up two-tone 18-inch alloy wheels, Satin Grey roof rails, rear privacy glass, a portrait 9.3-inch touchscreen multimedia system, satellite navigation, a nine-speaker Bose sound system, a 7.0-inch multifunction display, heated front seats, a power-adjustable driver’s seat, black leather upholstery, ambient lighting, an auto-dimming rearview mirror and surround-view cameras.

Options-wise, the Zen and Intens can add adaptive cruise control with stop and go functionality for $500, while the Life can get the Peace of Mind Package (power-folding side mirrors, blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert) for $1000.

The Intens can also level up with the $2000 Easy Life Package (a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, a frameless rearview mirror, high-beam assist, park assist and side parking sensors) and no-cost Orange Signature Package (orange interior accents), with the latter deleting the heated front seats and power-adjustable driver’s seat.

All three variants are powered by a 113kW/270Nm 1.3-litre turbo-petrol four-cylinder engine, which drives the front wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

This combination enables a zero-to-100km/h sprint time of 8.6 seconds and a top speed of 202km/h, while fuel consumption on the combined-cycle test is 6.6L/100km and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are 149g/km.

For reference, the Captur measures 4227mm long (with a 2639mm wheelbase), 1797mm wide and 1567-1576mm tall. Its boot’s cargo capacity is 422L, but it can be increased to 1275L by stowing the 60/40 split-fold rear bench.

Also of note, the small SUV comes with a five-year/unlimited-kilometre warranty, up to five years of roadside assistance, and five years/150,000km capped-price servicing.
