Which Is Cheaper to Maintain?

For routine consumables like wipers, bulbs, and filters, the Nissan Juke and Renault Captur are very similar in cost. The key differences come down to:

  • Oil spec — the Nissan Juke uses 5W-30 while the Renault Captur uses 5W-30. Some specs require pricier oil.
  • Battery type — start-stop cars need EFB or AGM batteries which cost more than standard ones.
  • Spark plugs — iridium plugs cost more but last much longer than standard copper.

In practice, both cars cost roughly £80–150 per year in consumables when you do the work yourself.
