General Motors South
Africa has refreshed the Captiva SUV
for a second time since it was launched here. In addition to some styling
changes, the vehicle now also has some extra interior kit. The Captiva is
Chevrolet’s best-selling mid-sized
SUV and they would like to keep the sales ticking
away.
Part of the change includes a new-look front bumper, fog lamp surrounds and front grille. While the last update made sure the car was more aggressive in its look, this time a crispier design has been put in place. What
would a facelift be without work
being done to the rear? For the Captiva we see a new bumper and sportier
tailpipes, along with brighter LED
taillights.
Some of the bits that will make the Captiva stand tall
beside its rivals are the 18-inch alloy
wheels, keyless entry with an accompanying start button, optional dual-zone climate control, a sunroof, leather seats and a tyre
pressure warning indicator among others, all model-dependent.
Power is gathered from either a 2.4-litre Ecotec engine that makes 123kW and 230Nm of
torque, or from a 2.2-litre turbo diesel
motor delivering 135kW and 400Nm of pulling power. A choice of
6-speed manual or automatic is available. Chevrolet claims 8.8 litres per 100km on the 2.4-litre,
and 8 litres per 100km fuel
consumption on the diesel.

nearest Chevrolet dealership at the following prices:
