This is the Nissan Juke vs Renault Captur comparison for 2015. We like the Nissan Juke package even more so after the update, although the price increases is not so desirable. We also like the design difference that the Renault Captur brings to the smaller SUV class although not as strikingly different as the Juke. They are related in a technical way including engines but both are cleverly designed to hide the most obvious parts.
Nissan Juke vs Renault Captur exterior: Once again we like the exterior styling of both small cars. The Juke is more coupe like than hatchback while the Captur is a modelled on the regular Clio but raised. The long roof on the Captur makes it more habitable for taller folk but we didn’t there was a huge difference. Both are modern, youthful and different but good looking in their own way.
Nissan Juke vs Renault Captur interior: The interior of both cars are designed and trimmed in a similar way. The Captur has a more utilitarian design with lots of hard plastics and splashes of colour while the Juke has a softer interior great seats and splashes of colour but with the recent update better looking and feeling materials. As a result the Juke wins this part.
Nissan Juke vs Renault Captur engine and technology: The Nissan Juke has the most advanced technology in the small SUV class. The most powerful turbo petrol in the class and the advanced AWD system that mimics the awesome GTR are the stand out features. Unfortunately the Captur has nothing like that to match.
Nissan Juke vs Renault Captur drive: N/A
The conclusion is for this comparison is easier than most and mostly thanks to the better options the Nissan Juke is the better SUV to buy.
