Captiva

For such an affordable compact SUV, the Captiva strikes a perfect balance between convenience and style, with seating for up to seven and a beautiful, ergonomic interior. The Captiva combines imaginative design and intuitive features with a wide range of responsible safety features, such as Hydraulic Brake Assist, Hill Descent Control and Active Rollover Protection. All models in the range are now fitted with a 6-CD front loader with eight speakers and a radio/CD combination with RDS functionality. Features include: MP3 compatibility; Bluetooth connectivity, and auxiliary input.

Latest generation engines
The new Chevrolet Captiva is powered by either a 2.4 litre Ecotec engine with variable valve timing that produces 123 kW and 230 Nm of torque, or a direct injection 3.0 litre V6 that delivers 190 kW with 288 Nm of torque. Both are latest generation engines from Chevrolet that offer exceptional fuel economy. Combined cycle fuel economy is 8,8 l/100km for the front wheel drive 2.4 litre model and 9,2 l/100km for the all-wheel drive model. The 3.0 litre direct injection engine delivers combined cycle economy of 10,6 l/100km.

Enhanced exterior styling
Building on this proven formula the design team has revised the exterior styling of the Captiva for a fresh new look. This latest Captiva is immediately identified by its new face defined by a dual-port grille with black honeycomb inserts, chrome surrounds and prominent Chevrolet “bow-tie” insignia set in a body colour grille surround. The overall sleek appearance of the Captiva is defined by a swept windscreen and roof line that provide a sleek aero profile. The side view is complimented by a tight tyre-to-body relationship imparting a well-grounded appearance.

With an upgraded interior, a more refined chassis, a new electronics package, improved NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) characteristics and two latest generation engines, the Chevrolet Captiva is an impressive SUV.
