Renault Captur 1.2 EDC spotted on oto.my – RM120k

captur oto

It has already been confirmed that the Renault Captur will be arriving here sometime in the fourth quarter of this year – ahead of its market debut, TC Euro Cars will be previewing the crossover at the Centre Court of Bangsar Shopping Centre (BSC) from tomorrow, July 29 to August 2.

Now, an ad for the Captur has surfaced on oto.my, offering an indicative pricing of RM120,000 for the car. The details in the ad reiterate that which is already known about the local variant – it’ll be equipped with a 120 hp/190 Nm 1.2 litre turbocharged TCe engine paired with a six-speed EDC dual-clutch transmission.

The listing also mentions that the the bi-tone exterior will be available in four colours, and the Malaysian Captur will ride on 17-inch bi-tone wheels.

If the pricing holds to that suggested, the Captur has every chance of doing well, and there may be more even more positive news down the line – the brand is expecting to introduce another locally-assembled (CKD) model next year, and the Captur is widely tipped to be one of the candidates. If so, the move could lower the price significantly.

  • Renault is doing good. But TC euro has to buck up with more dealer and service centre.

    I have seen reviews about comparisons between HRV and Captur and I can say it’s about 60-40. Alot of people are saying HRV is practical however it’s boring compared to the Captur. It’s like the head is saying Honda but the heart says Renault.

    So Euro’s top selling SUV is here to compete…interesting but the price might be an issue since most Malaysians do not know this brand but the CKD price will make sense if joined with proper marketing.

      I think the price is competitive and around the same price range as CX3 and HRV. If CKD , this car will sell like roti canai.

      while u have a point that price plays a role, i think it all goes down to Malaysian buyers not knowing (or trusting) the brand. take Renault Fluence. priced very competitively against its c-segment rivals, japanese, kimchis n germans alike. but even after they promo it at 99k last year, take up still not that great, for a decently specced car.

    Captur looks great inside out…those long que for HRV might now consider this while Mazda is loosing more potential customer seems the CX3 only to deliver to customer around CNY 2016…

    Interesting and competitive market

    Honda HRV
    Mazda CX3
    Hyundai Ix25
    Renault Capture
    Peugeot 2008
    Ford Ecosport

    Actually this segment started during the Suzuki vitara era in the 90s. but consider as a small jeep.
