The 2011 crossover Chevrolet captiva for the first time, a full-scale modernization (without changing a generation) overtook - both the exterior and the interior of the car changed significantly, as well as it underwent serious technical improvements.

In 2013, the crossover was slightly corrected in appearance.

And already in November 2015, the off-road vehicle went through modernization again, making its official debut at international motor show in Dubai, - the five-door "matured" outwardly, having tried on a more solid front end, received minor adjustments to the interior decoration and "armed" with new options, but at the same time it did without any technical improvements.

In general, we can say that the appearance of the "updated Captiva" is always promptly "adjusted" in accordance with the corporate design of the brand, and the most interesting (and even menacing) car looks from the front - the narrowed head light optics, the "mouth" of the radiator grille and a powerful bumper with sections fog lights and a low "lip" (interfering with off-road).

The silhouette of the crossover also has a spectacular look, endowed with embossed wheel arches, expressive stampings and stylish mirrors on legs, but the feed is perceived somewhat simply - a large tailgate, LED lights and a bumper with massive plastic protection and two pipes exhaust system.

It should be noted that in Brazil in 2016 they presented "their own vision of a modern Captiva", but, most likely, this option will remain local - that is, outside of Latin America will not come out.

The dimensions of the Chevrolet Captiva allow us to consider it a "mid-size", but formally it is listed in the compact class: length - 4673 mm, height - 1756 mm, width - 1868 mm. The wheelbase of the crossover is 2707 mm, and the ground clearance in the curb condition is 200 mm.

The curb weight of the car varies in the range of 1843 ~ 1 978 kg (depending on the version), and it is ready to take ~ 550 kg on board.

Inside, the crossover is perceived as a real "American" due to its characteristic design - large "saucers" of devices, glowing with white illumination, and a large multifunctional wheel with a 4-spoke layout.

The visual center of the front panel is the visor of the multimedia complex, which can be expressed by a small monochrome screen or a 7-inch "TV". The lower part of the center console is somewhat overloaded with buttons - this is where the "music" and "climate" control units are based.

The interior of the updated Captiva is finished with soft plastics, diluted with silver elements. The seats, depending on the version, are wrapped in fabric, artificial leather with fabric inserts or natural leather.

The front seats of the Chevrolet Captiva have a suboptimal profile and slight support on the sides, so they will not be comfortable for everyone. The middle row of seats is spacious and free for passengers of any height, but the "gallery" is suitable for children or short adults.

With a seven-seater layout, even a few travel bags can hardly fit into the trunk of the crossover - its volume is only 97 liters. With the third row of seats folded down, the capacity of the cargo compartment increases to 769 liters, and with the second - to 942 liters (reaching a maximum of 1577 liters - without passengers).

To load small luggage, the glass is opened in a separate section of the car, and the spare wheel is located under the bottom.

The power range of the Chevrolet Captiva FL consists of two gasoline units and a turbodiesel:

  • The 2.4-liter four-cylinder petrol "aspirated" is equipped with distributed injection and variable valve timing. Its maximum potential is 167 horsepower at 5600 rpm and 230 Nm of torque at 4600 rpm.
  • "Top" version - atmospheric "six" with V-shaped cylinders, equipped with direct fuel supply. The 3.0-liter aluminum engine produces 258 hp. (249 in RF) at 6900 rpm and 288 Nm of peak thrust, reached at around 5800 rpm.
  • A 2.2-liter unit with a variable valve timing mechanism and a turbine with adjustable impeller geometry is installed on the "diesel Captiva". The result is 184 horsepower at 3800 rpm and 400 Nm of torque delivered from 2000 rpm.

Four-cylinder engines are combined with "mechanics" or "automatic" (in each case, six gears), and the V6 engine relies exclusively on automatic transmission.

The all-wheel drive system is available to everyone - the rear axle is connected using an electronically controlled clutch: standard conditions 100% of the traction goes to the front wheels, and in emergency situations up to 50% is transferred to rear wheels.

Depending on the modification, the crossover accelerates to the first hundred in 9-11.1 seconds, its peak is 175-198 km / h.

Gasoline consumption ranges from 9.3 to 10.7 liters (combined), for a diesel engine it will be 6.4 ~ 7.9 liters.

The Chevrolet Captiva crossover is built on the GM Theta architecture, which implies the presence of the classic MacPherson struts in the front axle design and multi-link suspension in the rear axle.

The braking system "flaunts" disc devices with ventilation "in a circle", which is assisted by four-channel ABS, and the rack and pinion steering- hydraulic booster.

In the Russian market, sales of Captiva were discontinued back in 2015, but in Kazakhstan, a restyled 2018 car is being sold with two gasoline engines in three equipment options - "Base", "LT" and "LTZ".

  • An all-terrain vehicle with a 2.4-liter "four" in the basic version costs at least 8,502,000 tenge (~ 1.6 million rubles). The standard five-door is equipped with: six airbags, 16-inch alloy wheels, combined trim, power windows for all doors, electric handbrake, ABS, ESP, TCS, dual-zone "climate", rear parking sensors, "cruise", heated front seats, media center with a 7-inch screen, audio system and other equipment.
  • The maximum configuration is offered only with a V6 engine, and it will cost from 11,252,000 tenge (~ 2.1 million rubles). Its features include: leather interior trim, blind spot monitoring system, front parking sensors, heated second row of seats, "music" with eight speakers, a rear-view camera with dynamic markings and some other functionality.

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 back part fits very harmoniously into the overall look: two exhaust pipes, beautiful taillights - a very coherent 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. Indicators dashboard easy to read, all control buttons are at hand, and the wood and aluminum finish (in the expensive version) looks 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). Putting it all together passenger seats, the volume of the load compartment will increase to 1565 liters. By the way, for the convenience of loading into Captiva, you can open the glass separately back door... 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 Captiva versions 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 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). Fully independent suspension Captiva (front - McPherson, rear - multi-link) copes with uneven road 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 updated crossover... V better side the seats have changed, 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. To replace mechanical parking brake came a more modern electric. Thus, the designers freed up space for a multifunctional glove compartment between the front seats. Designers used elements of others Chevrolet models such as the 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. V standard configuration All cars have full power accessories, including electric mirrors, rain and light sensors and many other systems that help the driver to control the car. The volume of the trunk 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. Basic is Gas engine ECOTEC, with a displacement of 2.4 liters, is 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, an intercooler and a system " Common rail". 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 technical Chevrolet specifications Captiva are as follows: acceleration in 9.9 seconds to 100 kilometers per hour from a standstill, maximum speed 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. Active system All-wheel drive controls the connection of the rear wheels through 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 braking system and Dynamic Stability Control to ensure maximum control of the vehicle's behavior.

The updated chassis of the Chevrolet Captiva improves the dynamic qualities of the car, improves driving on sharp turns, reduces roll and improves overall driving performance. 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 system passive safety... 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 has undergone a slight change front bumper, fog lights have changed. The new headlamps have a more tapered shape. Small slits appeared on the front fenders. The car also got a new bumper at the back, updated design reflectors, while the round tailpipes have been replaced by chrome-plated rectangular pipes with a sporty design. Taillights enlarged a little 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 transformation capabilities of the cabin deserve separate conversation... 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 motor, it will be possible to choose a 6-speed mechanical transmission or a 6-speed automatic. 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. Also present 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 configurations offer heating rear seats, dual-zone climate control, engine start with a button, multimedia system MyLink, which 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. Car interior in basic configuration equipped with two front airbags, three-point belts with pretensioners, active head restraints for the front seats, as well as a mount for child seats. More expensive configurations, as well as curtains and side airbags will be installed as additional options.

It has become a good tradition to celebrate a visit to the Autocentre City in 1905 with a small commentary. This morning at 9-15 I arrived at TO-2, personally to Alexander Golubev. Met with a smile and attention. He thoroughly asked about the problems that had arisen, promptly completed the documents and took the car.
I decided to watch the maintenance work. I did not meet any resistance. I signed for the security measures and Alexander politely invited them to the zone.
The master was also Alexander. A heroic physique, with intelligent eyes immediately inspired confidence. Not so much for control as to learn myself, I was present at all TO-2 operations. The master intelligently answered questions, gave advice on maintenance. Alexander Golubev entered the technical zone several times. I immediately realized that the control over TO-2 was at the proper level! In about 2.5 hours, all operations were completed. I got complete satisfaction from the maintenance of my car. Saying goodbye to the next MOT, as a token of gratitude, he firmly shook hands with the master Sasha and Alexander Golubev.
It is most pleasant to write kind comments, and by and large there was absolutely nothing to find fault with.

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 Chevy Equinox and Saturn Vue, which are similar in configuration, the designers have radically redesigned the architecture of the Theta platform, made significant adjustments to the powertrain line, came up with an impressive roof and installed 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 a permanent front-wheel drive with an automatically shifted rear axle via an electronically controlled clutch in the event of slipping of the front wheels. 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.
