2019 Renault Captur Redesign and Price

A completely new, second generation of this popular small crossover is about to come next year as 2019 Renault Captur. Considering that this small SUV has managed to mark one million units sold after only four and a half years, we can say that this was an instant success of the French biggest carmaker.

The original version was launched in 2013 and the company already prepares a completely new version. Someone would expect a facelift but no, this will be a complete overhaul. The second generation is about to come next year, as 2019 Captur.

We are expecting to see plenty of novelties. Of course, the most notable will be new styling, but there is much more to come. Count on a completely new platform, with new engines, as well as with some elements of the autonomous drive system. Finally, expect to see a completely new, higher-grade interior design.

A lot of new things will come with this redesign. First of all, there is a new architecture. The company works on a new platform which will be in models such as new Clio, Captur etc. Just like with the original first-generation model, we are expecting two variants when it comes to size. A long-wheelbase model should come as well. The new architecture will bring many benefits and one of the most important will be in terms of autonomous driving. Our reliable source suggests that the new 2019 Renault Captur will have a Level 2 autonomous driving. Commonly known as hands-off level, this means that the new crossover will be capable of accelerating, braking and steering. Still, a constant human monitoring will be required, in order to prevent possible mistakes. Despite all these technological novelties, the new look, as well as engines, remains the most anticipated thing about 2019 Renault Captur.
