For a surcharge, the Captiva can be equipped with an additional row of seats, which converts the car from 5 to 7.

Initially for Russia, the Chevrolet Captiva was sold with two petrol engine options: a 2.4-liter four-cylinder DOHC (136 hp, 220 Nm / 2200 rpm) and a 3.2-liter Alloytec V6 (230 hp, 297 Nm / 3200 rpm). After modernization in 2011, the 3.2-liter engine was replaced by a new 3-liter power unit with 258 hp. (from 2013 - 249 hp). The power of the 2.4-liter engine, which was equipped with a variable valve timing system, increased to 167 "horses", and the torque was raised from 220 Nm to 230 Nm, although it went into the zone of higher revs. A 2.2 liter diesel engine with 184 hp also appeared. and a maximum torque of 400 Nm, which can please the owner with low fuel consumption (6.6 liters per 100 km).

Front suspension Chevrolet Captiva independent, McPherson type. Rear - semi-independent in LS configuration and independent multi-link - in LT. In the process of a global update of the model, some suspension units were modernized, in particular, shock absorbers with different characteristics, new vibration dampers and silent blocks were installed. All of this made the Captiva's behavior more balanced and improved handling. The vehicle's four-wheel drive is automatically connected using an electronically controlled multi-plate clutch. The uphill and downhill driver assistance systems make it easier to drive in difficult situations. The declared ground clearance of 200 mm, which sometimes appears in the characteristics, actually turns into real 160-180 mm, which, of course, is not enough for a real SUV, but is quite enough for most ordinary situations.

The vehicle is equipped with a steel frame and has programmed deformation zones to absorb impact energy. In addition, the updated Captiva is equipped with ABS with electronic brake force distribution EBV, dynamic stability control ESC, HBA hydraulic brake booster, DCS hill descent control and ARP active rollover protection. The standard equipment includes six airbags - two front and two side, designed to protect the driver and front passenger - and in addition - two curtain airbags to protect against side impact and passengers in the second row of seats. As well as three-point seat belts with pretensioners and child seat anchorages.

As soon as it appeared on the market, Chevrolet Captiva immediately “staked out” a place in the category “a lot of cars for reasonable money”. However, time has made its own adjustments - at the time of the crisis, small localization created problems with pricing. And this despite the fact that Captiva is an excellent variant of the "golden mean", especially after modernization - a roomy, economical, comfortable car with excellent equipment. However, thanks to its well-deserved popularity, the car is well represented in the secondary market.

The world debut of the Chevrolet Captiva 7 seats (factory index C-100) took place at the Paris auto show, where a multinational Korean-Australian development appeared before the public with a Chevrolet "butterfly-cross". Unlike the similarly configured Chevy Equinox and Saturn Vue, the designers have radically redesigned the architecture of the Theta platform, made significant adjustments to the powertrain lineup, came up with an impressive roof and put the compact crossover on monumental wheels. The dimensions of the Chevrolet Captiva can comfortably accommodate 7 passengers. GM is unveiling the new Chevrolet Captiva as a recreational vehicle, but is essentially a classic urban SUV.

The five-door Chevrolet Captiva has permanent front-wheel drive with an automatically shifted rear axle through an electronically controlled clutch in the event of front wheel slip. The capacity is 5 passengers. An additional third row of seats provides the Chevrolet Captiva with 7 seats.

Officially declared Chevrolet Captiva dimensions: wheelbase length 2707 mm, car length 4673 mm, width 1868 mm, car height excluding roof rails 1756 mm. Depending on the engine, the fuel consumption of the Captiva in mixed drive mode ranges from 6.6-10.7 liters per 100 km.

Chevrolet Captiva specifications

Powertrain line

Engine Captiva "Ecotek" - 2.4 liters, 4-cylinder with two camshafts (DOHC), 100 kW (136 l / s). On a country road, the average consumption of Chevrolet Captiva is 7.6 l / 100 km, in the city - 12.2 l / 100 km.

Engine Chevrolet Captiva "Alloytec V6" - compact aluminum 6-cylinder 3.2-liter, power - 169 kW (230 l / s). The most "gluttonous" - the fuel consumption of the Chevrolet Captiva in the combined cycle is 10.7 liters, in the city - 15.5 liters per 100 km.

The two-liter turbodiesel Z20S, created as a result of the collaboration of Korean engineers from GM DAT and their Italian colleagues from VM Motori. Diesel Captiva hides 150 "horses" under the hood. This Chevrolet Captiva diesel is installed on models sold mainly in Western Europe.

For the Russian market, a 184-horsepower Chevrolet Captiva diesel engine is offered - a 2.2-liter unit. The fuel consumption of the Chevrolet Captiva per hundred kilometers is 6.6 liters in mixed mode. Outside the city - 5.5 l / 100 km, in ragged city traffic - 8.5 l / 100 km.

3-liter 258-horsepower 6-cylinder petrol engine.

Captiva 7 seats car is solid, solid and even a little imposing. Those sitting in the cabin practically do not notice the unevenness of the road. Thanks to the electronically controlled clutch, the Captiva automatically becomes all-wheel drive in 100 milliseconds (according to the technical documentation) after the front wheels slip. The inherent characteristics of the Chevrolet Captiva do not provide for the possibility of forced locking of the electrically controlled clutch.

None of the official documentation describing the technical characteristics of the Chevrolet Captiva does not indicate a specific ride height. The amount of ground clearance is not a reason to be proud of the Chevrolet Captiva. The distance from the roadway to the lowest point of the vehicle is 170 mm. And the "toothy" skirt of the front bumper reduces the Chevrolet Captiva's ground clearance characteristics by almost half. In the case of installing a crankcase, the ground clearance is reduced to a value more typical of urban sports cars, and not off-road cars, which the new Chevrolet Captiva marks.

Transmission Chevrolet Captiva automatic or mechanic

Regardless of the type of engine (gasoline or diesel), the buyer of the Chevrolet Captiva is offered either a manual transmission or an "automatic". Both transmission options are six-speed.

Restyling Chevrolet Captiva

The results of the first restyling were shown during the 2010 Paris Motor Show. Notable changes affected both the appearance of the Chevrolet Captiva new and the interior. The technical characteristics of the new Chevrolet Captiva were modernized - a diesel engine was added, the chassis was significantly reconfigured. The suspension received stiffer springs and more powerful anti-roll bars. An electronically controlled clutch connects the rear axle if necessary, giving the Captiva all-wheel drive, bringing the front-to-rear torque ratio to 50/50. The feed remained unchanged, the profile was slightly retouched, but the full face was completely transformed. The front end is adorned with a large radiator grille, traditional for the latest Chevrolet lines, divided into two unequal parts by a branded cross, and the front optics squinted aggressively. New door seals, new wheel arch liners and new headlining made the Captiva quiet and acoustically comfortable.

A Chevrolet Captiva diesel engine with 184 hp has been added to the powertrain line. 2.2 liters, has an impressive reserve of traction, economical and unusually quiet. This Captiva has a combined consumption of only 6.6 l / 100 km.

Another new power unit - a 3-liter 6-cylinder petrol engine with a capacity of 258 "horses" was presented in 2011 during the demonstration of the post-styling Captiva assembly of the Tashkent branch of GM Uzbekistan. This Chevrolet Captiva has a combined fuel consumption of 9.3 l / 100 km. The demonstration model was equipped with a modified automatic transmission. In the appearance of the Chevrolet Captiva, the block of front headlights and foglights installed in the bumper has changed. Several assembly options provide for equipping with a park-tronic system and additional airbags. The electronic console with a 7-inch touchscreen has wireless Bluetooth connectivity. The new Captiva went on sale in 2012.

5 doors SUVs

History of the Chevrolet Captiva / Chevrolet Captiva

In 2006, the relatively inexpensive Captiva SUV, which the concern brought to Europe from Korea, joined GM's line of affordable models. The premiere took place at the Geneva Motor Show. This time, the company presented not a huge and heavy American jeep, but a compact SUV (Sport Utility Vehicle) or, in the popular language, a SUV. Captiva is translated from Italian as "captive".

The look turned out to be quite courageous. The grille is topped with a large Chevrolet badge. The originally located foglights give the car a certain charm. The rear part fits very harmoniously into the overall look: two exhaust pipes, beautiful taillights - a very solid image is obtained.

Inside, the feeling of well-thought-out functionality reigns supreme. Nothing superfluous, but everything that is - to the place and looks great. Only high-quality plastic is used in the decoration. The dashboard indicators are easy to read, all the control buttons are at hand, and the wood and aluminum finishes (in the expensive version) look high quality and appropriate. The interior can comfortably accommodate up to seven passengers. The basic version is designed for five people. The seats are adjustable in all kinds of planes. The steering wheel can also be adjusted in height and angle. The audio system control panel is placed on it, as well as, in some trim levels, also the cruise control system control buttons.

The volume of the trunk is quite impressive, and if you fold the rear seats, the area of ​​useful space doubles. The rear seat can also be folded in parts (60/40 ratio). With all the passenger seats folded down, the volume of the load compartment will increase to 1,565 liters. By the way, for the convenience of loading into the Captiva, you can separately open the rear door glass. In the cabin for storing small luggage, there is a spacious glove box, which is also refrigerated. In the pockets of the front doors, in addition to the places for the map, there are round niches, for one liter bottles of water, for example.

The basic configuration of the Chevrolet Captiva includes 6 airbags, ESP, alloy wheels 17, power accessories, air conditioning, CD / MP3 with the ability to control the radio on the steering wheel. There are versions of the Captiva with cruise control, fog lights, heated seats, trip computer, leather interior and 18-inch alloy wheels.

The car is offered with three types of engines: two petrol and one diesel. Diesel unit with a volume of 2.0 l / 150 hp. and the front-wheel drive version of the Captiva will not be sold in Russia. So you will have to choose among the all-wheel drive options with two gasoline engines (2.4 l / 136 hp and V6 3.2 l / 230. s.). Transmission to choose from: manual and 5-speed automatic.

The V-6 pulls well the 1,770-pound Captiva, coupled with a 5-speed automatic transmission, it accelerates the car to 100 km / h in less than 9 seconds.

In normal mode, the car is front-wheel drive, and only when the drive wheels begin to slip, the electronics connect the rear wheels, to which up to 50% of the torque can be transmitted, if necessary. There are no locks or downgrades on the Captiva. If necessary, it is possible to turn on the assistance during the descent (this system artificially lowers the speed of the car when descending, braking the engine and wheels so that the car does not turn across the slope). The Captiva's fully independent suspension (McPherson front, multi-link rear) handles uneven road surfaces without any problems.

The updated Captiva model was presented at the Paris Auto Show in October 2010. The compact SUV received an updated exterior, improved interior and new engines as part of the restyling. The car is also safer.

The front of the car has been significantly transformed, it has become more pointed and aggressive. This is facilitated by a more streamlined front bumper. A new bonnet with sharp lines catches the eye. The radiator grille, like the pre-styling version, is divided into two parts. Only now these are not narrow stripes, but a real combat visor from the edge of the hood, through the entire bumper to the plastic skirt. The head optics have been significantly modernized. Large rectangular headlamps are slightly upturned. Powerful fog lights, framed with chrome, are located in a special plane integrated into the bumper. Air vents on the front fenders give the vehicle a dynamic look. At the back, only the lights have changed. The rear optics received a fashionable transparent case, in which the multi-colored signal lights are located. The Captiva 2011 also features LED turn signal repeaters integrated in the mirrors, new body paint colors and fresh alloy wheel designs.

The developers paid no less attention to the interior of the updated crossover. The seats have changed for the better, they have good lateral support. The central part of the torpedo has also changed, it has become more modern. The liquid crystal display, on which the navigation and the picture from the rear-view camera are broadcast, fit perfectly into the overall concept of the central panel. The mechanical parking brake has been replaced by a more modern electric one. Thus, the designers freed up space for a multifunctional glove compartment between the front seats. Designers used elements from other Chevrolet models, such as blue lighting and instrument panel trim that blend seamlessly into the front doors. Captiva is available in 5- or 7-seater versions, and the seats are raised in a cinema-like arrangement. All vehicles come standard with a full power package that includes power mirrors, rain and light sensors, and many other systems that help the driver drive. The trunk volume is 769 liters, it can be transformed by folding the second row of seats into 1577 liters.

The engine range for the Chevrolet Captiva has been radically redesigned. The engines are completely modernized, the power has increased. Customers are offered 4 new engines of the Evro-5 standard, which are serially combined with a 6-speed "mechanics". A 6-speed automatic is also available as an option. The basic one is the ECOTEC gasoline engine with a working volume of 2.4 liters, equipped with a modern VVT system, which provides variable valve timing. This engine has a power of 167 hp and a fuel consumption of 8.9 l / 100 when using a manual transmission. According to the passport, the acceleration to hundreds is 10.5 seconds. The most powerful engine is the 3.0-liter V6. Direct fuel injection and flexible valve control deliver 258 hp. He is able to accelerate Captiva to 100 km / h in 8.6 seconds. Top speed 198 km / h, fuel consumption 10.7 l / 100 km on the combined cycle.

The new 2.2-liter turbodiesels are presented in two versions: 163 and 184 hp. The engines have a variable geometry turbocharger, intercooler and common rail system. Unlike the previous generation diesel engines, the new engines have a reduced compression ratio. This gives the new Chevrolet Captiva more power and lower CO2 emissions. With a diesel engine with a capacity of 163 hp, the technical characteristics of the Chevrolet Captiva are as follows: acceleration in 9.9 seconds to 100 kilometers per hour from standstill, a maximum speed of 189 km / h. With a diesel engine with a power of 184 hp, the Chevrolet Captiva accelerates from standstill to 100 km / h in 9.4 seconds, with a top speed of 200 km / h. For both versions, the fuel consumption is 6.4 l / 100 kilometers.

The new car is also equipped with an all-wheel drive system. The Active AWD system manages the rear wheel engagement via an electronically controlled clutch. The distribution of torque along the axes is constantly adjusted in automatic mode and can be adjusted to a ratio of 50:50. Under normal driving conditions, 100% of the torque is transferred to the front wheels. The all-wheel drive system is fully integrated with anti-lock braking system and dynamic stability control to ensure maximum control of the vehicle's behavior.

The updated chassis of the Chevrolet Captiva improves vehicle dynamics, improves cornering, reduces roll and improves overall driving characteristics. The basic equipment of Captiva includes systems that provide high-level active safety. The vehicle is equipped with ESC (Dynamic Stability Control), TCS (Traction Control) and BAS (Brake Assist).

Six airbags (side, front and inflatable curtains to protect the rear passengers) are part of the passive safety system. The front seats have diagonal lap seat belts with a pretensioner and tension force limiter. The side seats in the second row are equipped with Isofix anchorages, which allow quick and secure installation of child seats.

In 2013, the updated Chevrolet Captiva was officially presented at the Geneva Auto Show. As before, the restyled crossover is available in both five-seat and seven-seat versions. The exterior has changed slightly. The radiator grill has been updated with a black honeycomb lath, chrome piping around the edges and an additional bar in the center. The shape of the front bumper has undergone a slight change, the fog lights have changed. The new headlamps have a more tapered shape. Small slits appeared on the front fenders. At the rear, the car also received a new bumper, redesigned reflectors, and the round exhaust pipes gave way to chrome-plated rectangular pipes of a sporty design. The taillights were slightly enlarged and equipped with LEDs.

There are also few changes in the cabin. The instrument cluster has slightly changed compared to the previous generation, now there are two distinct scales with a pleasant blue backlight. Between them is a small display that displays engine temperature, oil pressure and a few more indicators in real time. The steering wheel has changed its shape and received additional adjustments to the car systems. In addition to the interior design, the ergonomics have been significantly improved. From the inside, the car began to look much more expensive. Better quality plastics and fabric elements are used in the interior trim. The top configurations have got an updated leather interior with new trim colors, new front panel overlays and a few more minor innovations.

The interior transformation possibilities deserve a separate discussion. Everything is added here and in any combination. The previous version of Captiva did not have these features. Even a crossover version with a third row of seats allows for a flat loading floor without removing the third row. The seats fold in any proportions you need, that is, you can carry the required number of passengers and at the same time get excellent cargo space. Fully transformed, the car offers almost a thousand liters of usable volume. The standard luggage compartment volume is 477 liters.

Under the hood of the Russian version of the crossover, there are three representatives of the updated line of motors to choose from. Two gasoline units, including a four-cylinder engine with a working volume of 2.4 liters and a capacity of 167 horsepower. The more powerful six-cylinder engine has a displacement of 3.0 liters and an output of 249 horsepower.

The first motor is capable of accelerating the crossover to one hundred kilometers per hour in 10.3 seconds, and the average consumption will be 12.2 liters. With this engine, it will be possible to choose a 6-speed manual transmission or a 6-speed automatic transmission. With the flagship engine, the car will become faster - only 8.6 seconds to one hundred kilometers per hour, and consumption will increase to 15.5 liters per hundred kilometers. Only automatic transmission can be used.

The third in the lineup is the diesel, which develops 184 horsepower with a volume of 2.2 liters. Acceleration of a crossover with such an engine is 9.6 seconds to one hundred kilometers per hour, and fuel consumption is 8.5 liters per hundred kilometers in urban conditions. With this engine, it will be possible to choose both mechanical and automatic transmissions.

All-wheel drive is offered for all variants of the car, but despite this, it is necessary to drive off the asphalt very carefully. The fact is that in the sill zone, the ground clearance does not exceed 170 mm, and there is even less space under the bumpers.

The concern offers two basic configurations: LS and LT. There are also special versions LT Plus and LTZ. In the basic version, the car is well equipped on all fronts: alloy wheels 17 inches, a full set of airbags for the driver and front passenger, ABS, exchange rate stability system, brake assist, air conditioning, heated front seats, proprietary audio system with steering wheel control. Top-end configurations offer heated rear seats, dual-zone climate control, engine start with a button, MyLink multimedia system that supports voice control, as well as 18-inch wheels.

Special attention is paid to the issue of safety in this car. At the heart of the body, a solid steel frame appeared, equipped at the front with special zones of programmable deformation and reinforcements in door structures, which should protect against side impacts. The interior of the car as standard was equipped with two front airbags, three-point belts with pretensioners, active head restraints for the front seats, as well as an attachment for child seats. More expensive configurations, as well as curtains and side airbags will be installed as additional options.



Visitors to the annual Geneva Motor Show (March 2013) were able to get acquainted with the updated crossover Chevrolet Captiva 2013. The purpose of our review is to tell readers about the updates to the exterior and interior of the Chevrolet Captiva 2013, to indicate the overall dimensions of the body and tires and wheels proposed for installation, to help choose the color of the enamel, to remind the full technical characteristics and fuel consumption (engines, gearboxes and chassis were not interfered with) ... Let us dwell in detail on the new options that were previously not available for installation on the American-Korean SUV, evaluate the level of equipment with comfort, entertainment and safety systems. Our readers will be able to evaluate the new Chevrolet Captiva based on photo and video materials, it will be possible to order and purchase a car in Russia starting in the fall of 2013, at the same time the exact price will be known.

Dimensions (edit)

Let's start with the outer dimensions of the updated Chevrolet Captiva 2013:

  • 4670 mm long, 1868 mm wide, 1756 mm high with roof rails, 2707 mm wheelbase, ground clearance varies depending on the wheels installed, as a result clearance ranges from 171 mm with 235/60 R17 tires to 178 mm with 235/50 R19 tires, and 235/55 R18 tires can be installed. Size 17, 18 or 19 discs are made of aluminum.
  • Let's supplement the data with the parameters of the geometric cross-country ability of the Captiva body: the entry angle is 20 degrees, the ramp angle is 18 degrees, the exit angle is 24 degrees, the ford depth is 450 mm.

Exterior

With a cursory glance at the updated 2013-2014 Chevrolet Captiva, it is very difficult to find new exterior details, but they are present. Korean designers changed the pattern of the grille mesh, the foglights were placed in the boxes and got a stylish chrome frame, the front bumper barely perceptibly changed the proportions and configuration of the lower fairing.

The main innovations are in the rear of the body. The all-new side lights with LED lamps not only look stylish and beautiful, but also turn on faster when you press the brake pedal (positively affects safety). The rear bumper of the modified form has acquired new stripes of reflectors, the tailpipes of the exhaust pipes have become trapezoidal.

Otherwise, we have before us the well-known Chevrolet Captiva with harmonious body proportions and striking original elements in the form of a proprietary false radiator grille, a huge front bumper with a low lip of the fairing, and powerful crossover protection of the car body.

The manufacturer does not spare plastic and generously covers the lower parts of the crossover body, thereby hinting at the possibility of driving the Captiva off-road. But with a ground clearance like a regular sedan, and a front bumper that can be damaged even in urban conditions, there is no desire to leave the asphalt surface.

SUV in one word, and a manly look - a tribute to fashion and nothing more.

  • When ordering a car, it is possible to choose color body colors: basic white, for metallics - silver, light gray, beige, red, black and blue mother-of-pearl, 15,000 rubles must be paid.

Even people with a height of 190 cm will be able to fit comfortably, the knees of those sitting do not reach the backs of the front seats. The passenger located in the center should not think about where to attach the feet, the floor is absolutely flat.

For ease of landing on the third row, the right seat of the second row of seats is folded, and rising vertically provides a convenient passage. There is not so much space for two passengers in the gallery as for the inhabitants of the first and second rows, but it is comfortable to sit on full, and, which is not a little important, comfortable chairs.

Volume trunk the seven-seater version of the Chevrolet Captiva from 97 liters with all the seats occupied in the cabin increases to 477 liters (769 liters loading under the ceiling) if the third row seats are folded. Transforming the second row of seats into a flat floor, we get 942 liters, and folding the front passenger seat - 1577 liters.
