New crossovers are being released in Moscow Vedomosti

Maxim Stulov / Vedomosti Renault launched mass production of the new Kaptur crossover at its Moscow plant (formerly Avtoframos) on Wednesday.
Maxim Stulov / Vedomosti Sales of Kaptur in Russia will begin in the summer, the company reported
Maxim Stulov / Vedomosti Kaptur in the basic configuration will cost a little less than 900,000 rubles in Russia, and in the maximum configuration – about 1.2 million rubles, two Renault dealers told Vedomosti
Maxim Stulov / Vedomosti Kaptur is similar in design to the Renault Captur crossover. The latest model is not supplied to Russia
Maxim Stulov / Vedomosti “Nash” Kaptur is designed on the platform of the Renault Logan sedan, on the basis of which a whole family of cars is produced - in addition to Logan, these are Renault Duster and Sandero (hatchback), Nissan Almera (sedan) and Terrano (crossover), Lada Largus (station wagon)
Maxim Stulov / Vedomosti In addition to Russia, the new product will be exported, the company reported
Maxim Stulov / Vedomosti Renault, with the help of Kaptur, first of all wants to win a youth audience in Russia and “get away from the pensioner-taxi driver image that is cultivated by Logan, Sandero and Duster,” says Leonid Golovanov, deputy editor-in-chief of Autoreview
Currently, the plant in Moscow, in addition to the Kaptur, assembles the Renault Duster crossover; the plant also produces the Nissan Terrano crossover, Interfax writes.
