GALLERY: Renault Captur facelift on sale – RM109,000

The facelifted Renault Captur has just gone on sale in Malaysia, and is currently on display at Mid Valley Megamall until May 20. For those who want to take a closer look at the refreshed B-segment crossover, we now have a full photo gallery for your perusal.

First up, pricing, which holds station at RM109,000 on-the-road without insurance. Included in the price is a five-year, unlimited-mileage warranty as well as a five-year/100,000 km free service and maintenance scheme as part of the 5inCaptur aftersales package.

Also included is a complimentary 24-hour roadside assistance and pick-up/delivery service for scheduled maintenance to and from Renault service centres, and in the event any part is not available for over 48 hours, a replacement car is provided as part of a mobility service, subject to availability.

On the outside, the facelifted Captur is differentiated through a new grille bar and mesh insert, more rugged front and rear skid plates as well as C-shaped LED daytime running lights at the corners of the front bumper. Unfortunately, we don’t get the new LED “Pure Vision” headlights, but we do receive the new concentric LED light guides in the tail lights, as well as swanky 17-inch Y-spoke two-tone alloy wheels.

The exterior colour range has also been revamped. Pacific Blue, Ivory and Arizona Orange are gone, replaced by Atacama Orange, Ocean Blue and Pearl White to join the existing Flame Red – all with a Diamond Black roof. Speaking of which, Flame Red and Pearl White come with a RM900 premium, which also includes kick plates and a cargo tray in the boot.

Inside, the new model benefits from new materials and trim for a more sophisticated look and feel, such as combination leather upholstery and leather door trim. Elsewhere, the steering wheel, gearlever, air vents, upper dash tray cover and transmission tunnel console have been redesigned, the latter fitted with a rear 12-volt socket. The funky straps on the front seat backs are no more.

Standard kit remains the same and includes projector halogen headlights, front and rear fog lights, keyless entry, push-button start, auto lights and wipers, auto door locks, a MediaNav navigation system with a seven-inch touchscreen and AUX, USB and Bluetooth connectivity, as well as a reverse camera. As for safety equipment, items on the list include four airbags, stability control and hill-start assist.

A 1.2 litre TCe 120 turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine continues to provide motive force, producing 118 hp at 4,900 rpm and 190 Nm of torque at 2,000 rpm. It’s paired with a six-speed Efficient Dual Clutch (EDC) transmission, which drives the front wheels.
