Seats: While seats look and feel good, we found the driving position was difficult to get used to. Touchscreen: Buttons around the edge of the Citroen’s screen go straight to certain functions, making it easier to use than the menu system on the Captur’s display. The Citroen is fairly smooth, comfortable, easy to live with and has a greater sense of character than the somewhat bland Captur. Apart from this, it’s good enough to drive.

However, it’s not all positive because the Cactus’s lumpy, vague gearshift isn’t very pleasant.

Its cosseting ride focuses on this rather than agility because the Citroen rides more smoothly even on British B-roads. Both cars are pretty light – the Citroen weighs 1,020kg to the Renault’s 1,195kg – but the Cactus has the edge when it comes to comfort. The Cactus has a weight advantage over the Captur, which helped bridge the gap as well. Optional extras worth looking out for include a reversing camera and the R-Link system which includes TomTom sat nav.

The Renault then took 10.9 seconds in sixth gear, so the Citroen’s top gear sits in between.

In fifth, the Renault managed 50-70mph in 9.5 seconds, but the Cactus took 9.8 seconds. The rest of the sprint was, in part, decided by the gear ratios, because the Cactus only has a five-speed box compared with the Renault’s six-speed unit, which means each gear has to cover a wider speed range. That helped it keep up with the Renault at the track, where it posted a 0-60mph time of 10.8 seconds, just two tenths off the more powerful Captur – and it was three tenths faster from 0-30mph than its rival. It produces its maximum 205Nm of torque from 1,500rpm, 500rpm lower than the 1.2 in the Renault, which means it feels more eager from lower down in the rev range. It’s punchy, and while the Citroen’s powerplant isn’t as refined as the Renault’s motor, it does sound good and delivers decent performance. Our test car’s 108bhp 1.2-litre three-cylinder turbo petrol engine is great and heightens the relative sense of fun from behind the wheel.
