“In 2017 alone the SUV segment in India has grown by 46 per cent. Customers are now preferring stylish SUVs with a lot of features. Captur will address those needs,” he said.
Worldwide also there’s a trend towards SUV but the definition is changing with people now preferring stylish ones over boxy designs, he added.
Sawhney said the Captur will have 50 premium features, including projector headlamps, LED daytime running lights and an integrated audio system, among others, as standard features across all variants.
The Renault Captur petrol option is priced between Rs. 9.99 lakh and Rs. 11.69 lakh, while the diesel model comes at a price range of Rs. 11.39-13.88 lakh.
