Nissan Juke vs Renault Captur

Two small SUVs, compared on the same official records: MOT and inspection results, safety ratings, fuel use, recalls and owner complaints. 5 like-for-like measures: the Nissan Juke leads on 1, the Renault Captur on 3, 1 too close to call.

Where each one leads

Nissan Juke

  • Measured by the cars' own fuel meters, the petrol hybrid Nissan Juke uses 6.1 l/100 km on the road, the Renault Captur 6.3.

Renault Captur

  • Against cars of the same age, the Renault Captur comes out better at its first MOT test (passes 1% less often than average) than the Nissan Juke (passes 6% less often than average).
  • Fewer Renault Captur cars in the Netherlands carry an illogical odometer record (2.2% against 2.9%).
  • New Renault Captur cars registered in Europe in 2022 average 116 g/km of CO₂ on the WLTP test, against 133 for the Nissan Juke in 2022.

Too close to call: real-world fuel use in Europe, petrol (l/100 km).

Only measures that do not depend on how many cars were sold: pass and failure rates against cars of the same age, ratings, fuel use and CO₂. How we compare
