Chevrolet Captiva

The interior of the Chevrolet Captiva is as beautiful as its exterior as the overall design remains unchanged since its inception. The mounted controls for audio and telephony along with silver accents on the spokes tend to hide the age of this model. The cabin lacks the presence of touchscreen units and overload buttons that take care of various functions. 

Moreover, the cabin looks very gloomy and dark due to the presence of a centre console inside it. The premium touch to the centre console has been added by the vertical AC vents that have been placed adjacent to the music system.

The Chevrolet Captiva has been popular for its design and styling for years in the market of Singapore. This crossover is not just huge but holds an intimidating position that is needed in its segment. The significant features include the traditional split grille design rounded in a hexagonal shape and a bowtie logo placed between the split. 

On the rear side, it consists of large tail lamps that have been well equipped with LED inserts and a huge cladding job on the bumper. Moreover, its approach to a simplistic design is something that deserves appreciation given its door-mounted large rear-view mirror and black cladding present in its layout.

The Chevrolet Captiva has an archaic appeal that is pretty evident in almost all its models. The Captiva comes equipped with the usual MacPherson Strut setup on the front and Multilink on the rear side. The suspension setup ensures the settings that take care of auto air level control that makes it possible to drive the car in any kind of condition conveniently. 

The overall riding quality is great and comfortable given the softer side of this model that ensures comfort first hand. It allows the driver to deliver optimum braking performance with the help of rear and front disc brakes.

Chevrolet Captiva has been offered with both petrol and diesel options unlike most of its competitors. The 2.4-litre four-cylinder petrol engine delivers a power output of 165 bhp and a peak torque of 229 Nm. Whereas, the 2.0-litre four-cylinder oil burner diesel engine delivers a power output of 163 bhp and 360 Nm of torque. 

Moreover, both the engine options have been mated with a conventional six-speed torque converter. Overall, the performance of this model is great in comparison to most of its competitors and the fuel consumption offered is also pretty decent in terms of kilometres covered and the fuel used as a whole.

The Chevrolet Captiva not only ensures the comfort of the driver and passengers but also ensures the safety and security of the same. Though the Captiva is missing some modern safety but still comes equipped with some essential safety features such as dual front airbags, ABS, electronic parking brake, and reverse parking sensors. 

In terms of braking and safety, the Chevrolet Captiva lacks some modern features that assure the complete security of both driver and passengers. As a whole, the car is equipped with the basic safety features that ensure safety up to a certain limit.

The updated version of Chevrolet Captiva not only has been offered a bolder nose but also some new drivetrain combination that ensures its better performance and durability in the market of Singapore. The buyers still have faith in the Chevrolet brand that has lasted for more than 50 years in the market and holds the customer's loyalty. 

In the present generations of SUVs that are all modern, Chevrolet Captiva falls under the outdated category but still, the presence of modern features in its interiors balances the whole aspect.
