The 2026 Renault Captur has undergone a significant transformation, now sporting Renault’s bold new design language and an upgraded 1.8-litre E-Tech full hybrid powertrain. This brand-new, 0-mile Esprit Alpine model is the pinnacle of the range, delivering 160 ps with a focus on both efficiency and a sharper driving feel. By increasing the engine displacement to 1.8 litres, Renault has improved motorway refinement and torque delivery, while maintaining an incredible fuel economy of up to 65.7 MPG. The Esprit Alpine trim replaces the previous 'R.S. Line' and 'Engineered' variants, bringing a much more sophisticated, motorsport-inspired aesthetic. It features 19-inch 'Elixir' alloy wheels, an F1-style matt grey front blade, and Alpine-specific badging. The interior is a massive step up, featuring a 10.4-inch vertical OpenR link touchscreen with Google built-in, allowing you to use Google Maps and Google Assistant natively. The seats are a standout feature, upholstered in a sustainable Jacquard fabric with blue stitching and the Alpine 'A' embossed into the headrests.
