This is particularly the case of the petrol-engined version tested here. It soaks up bumps and potholes well, while on the motorway and at higher speeds the sound insulation in the cabin is among the best in class. Compared to some other crossovers on the market, the Captur feels quite solid. There haven't been any mechanical changes made for this facelift of the Captur, and to be fair it wasn't really in need of any. With the rear seats folded the cargo capacity rises to 1,235 litres.

Space-wise, there is a useful 455 litres and the boot features an adjustable floor height that could double up as a separate storage compartment. The rear bench seat can also slide fore and aft to add more boot space when required. Access to the rear seats is good too thanks to wide opening doors that aren't overly long, so tight car parking spaces shouldn't present too many issues.

In the rear, the Captur benefits from decent amounts of head- and legroom. Unlike newer Renault models, the Captur doesn't use the company's portrait-style tablet touchscreen and, in truth, that's a good thing. The layout of the dash remains unchanged, though it was a well-designed affair to begin with. Soft-touch plastics feel and look better than before. Most of the primary touchpoints, like door handles, steering wheel and upper dashboard areas, have seen improvements in the quality of materials used. Renault has implemented more important changes inside the cabin. The rear lights have also come in for some modification and feature a more modern look. To bring the Captur more in line with the styling of both the larger Kadjar and forthcoming Koleos models, new C-shaped LED daytime running lights occupy the lower corners of the front bumper.

The front grille has gained some additional chrome embellishments while there is now the option of new full LED headlights. You'll need to take a close look to notice the exterior differences that mark out this new Renault Captur. Now Renault has given the Captur some cosmetic tweaks and upgrades to the interior that should go down well with prospective buyers. The Renault Captur has enjoyed significant success since its introduction in 2013, remaining one of the most popular compact crossovers on the market.
