Nissan has also capable of blurring the line between SUV and sedan with its crossover - vehicles like the Rogue and Juke. And now the Japanese automaker affiliated company, Renault, following the same path appears with his new concept Captur.
The Captur follows last year's Dezire show car shows in the way forward for the French automaker formal language acquisition, as it were, the spirit, the future Renaults are.
