Coming to the styling department, the new Captiva 2012 SUV showcases General Motors' new styling theme with a new grill that gives the SUV a stunning look. Not just the grill, the 2012 Captiva SUV features new headlamps, front bumpers and wing mirrors.
The facelift continues to the interior of the car as well with a brand new dual cockpit dashboard design which has found place on all GM cars lately. The cabin has been designed to seat seven adults with a 2+3+2 layout.
The new 2012 Chevrolet Captiva comes packed with an array of comfort features including cruise control, Electric Parking Brake, AC vents for the third row, rain-sensing wipers and a sunroof. The Captiva also ensures the safety of passengers with the inclusion of ABS, EBD and a full complement of 6 airbags.
The new Captiva 2012 SUV which will compete with the likes of Toyota Fortuner, Mitsubishi Pajero, Ford Endeavour will be imported as completely built units into the country. This is the reason for the high pricing of the SUV and it needs to be seen if the pricing will help the Captiva gain good sales volumes for General Motors.
