Yes, the Capital One Savor has an introductory purchase APR of 0% for 12 months after account opening. Once this intro period expires, any remaining balance on the Capital One Savor will be subject to the regular APR of 18.99% - 28.99% (V).
Since the average 0% intro APR for new purchases lasts 11 months, the Capital One Savor offer is above average. The Capital One Savor also has a 0% intro APR for balance transfers, lasting 12 months. It is accompanied by a balance transfer fee of 3% for the first 12 months, 4% at a promo APR that Capital One may offer you at any other time.
It’s important to remember that even though you don’t pay interest during 0% APR periods, you still must make timely minimum payments each month. You should also consider paying more than the minimum, since you’ll want to pay off the credit card balance before the regular APR kicks in.

read full answer by Kelly Johnson, MemberWhat happens when 0% APR ends?
When a 0% APR period ends, the credit card’s regular APR will kick in. That rate will apply to any unpaid balance remaining on the credit card as well as any new purchases made from that point on. The regular APR that applies when a 0% APR period expires tends to be very high, so it’s best not to leave much of a balance for it to affect.
The only exception to this rule...

Store Credit Cards With 0% Intro APRs
It’s important to note that some store cards may offer 0% interest for longer than 21 months, but they use deferred interest. This means there's no interest if you pay off the item in full by the end of the promotion period. So, you should only get such a card if you're planning on paying down your balance in full before the interest-free period ends. But if you miss only one payment due date, then interest will be applied to your entire original purchase amount, as if it had been there from the start. The JCPenney Credit Card is one example, offering 18 months of deferred interest. But these cards are best avoided, due to the potentially high interest rate.
