    RARELY has a Renault looked so refreshing. The Renault Captur is a crossover with cool styling and an extremely versatile interior.

    Based on the Clio platform, this high-riding hatchback is slightly longer at 4.1 metres with the wheelbase extended by 17 mm to 2,606 mm. It also rides 10 cm higher, with the chassis fine-tuned to accommodate the higher centre of gravity.

    But the handsome Captur is not a macho SUV-wannabe. It is fresh and funky, with plastic wheel arches and two-tone paintwork in the form of a contrasting roof colour.
