![]() WTF?) and no weather, traffic updates, system updates or access to Renault store etc.įaults happen, but the 'Connectivity Support' at Renault have no idea why it doesn't work. The 2.75G (yep folks, welcome to the 80s) continually cycles between connected/disconnected which means no HD TomTom (yes TomTom in 2016. The last part is particularly annoying as the supposed inferior MediaNav has been upgraded with Siri support.Īnyway, design flaws of the R-Link aside, it simply does not work. The voice recognition would be outdone by the village cat and there is nil support for Siri. General Comments:īeautiful car, but the R-Link 'infotainment' (if 'infotainment' is what we call piles of brown stuff these days) is just AWFUL!! It has never managed to maintain a stable connection to the network and has zero support for iPhones. On this brand new one the R-Link rubbish doesn't work and the driver's window doesn't work. However this review is for the replacement new Signature Nav. This was a replacement NEW order for an Iconic Nav which was supplied to me mis-built and I rejected under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Eagerly awaiting the papers to get it registered and on the road. So this is something completely different. The last 30 years or so I've only driven diesel cars, either saloons or MPVs. Decent specs too (automatic folding mirrors, parking aid front and back, navigation system, etc), not that this is a top priority for me the less options, the less can go wrong. You have to rev it a bit to get going but then it's quite nippy. I'm 6ft1 and could fit easily in the back with leg room to spare. Small SUV-like car, but with decent boot and space at the back for 2 adults. It's the basic model with the 3 cylinder 0.9 turbo petrol engine, red colour with a black roof. Visited Cardoen.be, a supermarket for cars, saw this one at a very interesting price (5.500 EUR discount!) and bought it. We needed a second car, mainly as a runabout. Waiting for delivery of the car, so I can't tell you much. Overall this is a great car made by Renault, looks good inside and out, hopefully it will prove its reliability as the previous model did, and this is my first petrol car in years, so fingers crossed. The materials used in the car are of very good quality, a lot of soft touch materials, and this is in the ZEN version the INTENSE version has an even higher quality interior. The car is very comfortable to drive, great visibility in the front, not so much in the back, but thanks to its parking sensors, that's not a problem. For performance it's quite similar if not better than my previous 1.9 DCI Renault Megane III. This engine combined with the 7 speed automatic (EDC) is a blast to drive. So I went for the 1.3 engine with 130 hp. ![]() I made a test drive with the smaller 1.0 engine with 100 hp I felt that the car was struggling uphill with that engine and the car was feeling heavy. ![]() I opted for the 1.3 TCE 130 engine, because of its good performance. The car is well equipped with a lot of standard equipment, I only added the hands free feature, and 17 inch alloys. The new Captur caught my attention since its launch. ![]() The car is brand new, so, as expected, everything is working clockwise. ![]()
