Discover the perfect combination of eco-friendly performance and urban convenience with the Renault Captur Plug-in Hybrid or similar. This compact SUV is an excellent choice for travelers exploring Iceland’s stunning landscapes, especially if you’re planning to stick to paved roads and the iconic Ring Road. With its plug-in hybrid engine, you’ll enjoy a fuel-efficient drive while reducing your environmental footprint—an ideal option for those who prioritize responsible travel.

Why Rent a Renault Captur from Hertz Iceland?

  • Fuel Efficiency & Eco-Friendly: The Renault Captur Plug-in Hybrid allows you to switch between electric and gasoline power, making it highly fuel-efficient for both short city drives and longer road trips around Iceland. This dual-power system reduces fuel costs, which is perfect when gas prices fluctuate across the island.
  • Automatic Transmission for Easy Driving: The automatic transmission makes navigating Iceland’s roads, both in the city and along the coast, a breeze. Even if you’re new to driving in Iceland, this SUV’s automatic features ensure a smooth ride throughout your journey.
  • Comfortable and Spacious Interior: With room for five passengers and ample luggage space, the Renault Captur Plug-in Hybrid is perfectly suited for small groups or families. Whether you’re traveling to Reykjavik’s attractions or heading out on a self-drive tour to the Golden Circle, you’ll appreciate the comfort and flexibility it offers.
  • Ideal for Urban and Paved Road Driving: The 2WD configuration is perfect for driving on Iceland’s well-maintained roads, including major tourist routes like the Ring Road and trips to popular attractions such as Thingvellir National Park or Seljalandsfoss Waterfall. While it’s not suitable for F-roads or off-road adventures, this model shines in more accessible areas, making it an ideal choice for most visitors.
  • Eco-Friendly Exploration: As Iceland takes measures to protect its natural environment, the Renault Captur Plug-in Hybrid allows you to participate in sustainable travel. Its hybrid technology means you can explore Iceland’s beauty with minimal environmental impact, contributing to the island’s green initiatives.

What is the best time/months to rent a Renault Captur in Iceland? 

The best time to rent a Renault Captur Plug-in Hybrid in Iceland is from April to September, when road conditions are most favorable for 2WD vehicles. During these months, the majority of Iceland’s famous routes, such as the Ring Road and Golden Circle, are free of snow and ice, making it easy for travelers to enjoy smooth drives while exploring the country’s stunning landscapes.

The hybrid engine’s fuel efficiency is particularly useful for long road trips in the summer, helping you save on fuel as you cover greater distances. While the Renault Captur performs well in winter, we recommend opting for summer months to make the most of your journey without the challenges of icy roads.

How many passengers and luggage can the Renault Captur hybrid fit? 

The Renault Captur hybrid can accommodate 5 passengers (1 driver+4 passenger) with three large luggage at its total boot capacity with no back seat configuration. It is an ideal rental car in Iceland for four to five with light carry-on luggage and a group of three or fewer who require a larger cargo capacity.
