Renault Captur Pure Special Edition Introduced in France

Called the Pure special edition, it adds unique features like bespoke roof decals and side mirror housings, and a special Cassiopée Grey paintjob with an Etoilé Black roof. Based on the Intens trim, the interior features “Pure” badging, a mix of dark charcoal & smoke grey leather upholstery, a bespoke sill plaque with production number and “Pure” badging.

The crossover also comes with the Techno Pack that adds the R-Link infotainment system and a reversing camera to the package.

The biggest change, however, is the motor under the hood. Unlike the standard Renault that is powered by a 90 hp 1.5-liter dCi engine, the Pure edition gets a more-powerful 1.5-liter dCi engine, producing 110 HP and 260 Nm of torque.

Paired to a six speed manual transmission, it enables the Captur Pure to do the 0-100 km/h sprint in 11.03 seconds (2 sec quicker), before hitting a top speed at 175 km/h. It also returns an impressive fuel mileage of 27.02 km/l and CO2 emissions of just 98 g/km.

Prices for the 2015 Renault Captur Pure special edition (with the dCi 110 motor) start at EUR 25,100. Apart from that, they’re also offering the Captur Pure with a dCi 90 engine and EDC gearbox from EUR 25,300 and a petrol TCe 120 EDC variant from EUR 23,800.

Production is limited to 1000 units, and is available for sale from today.
