2008 Chevrolet Captiva - 2.0 Diesel AWD
I've decided to go next door of the Mazda showroom, where the Chevrolet showroom is. I went inside the showroom and test drove the Chevrolet Captiva. Overall, its an SUV you want to buy, other than a Honda CRV. Best of all, it's diesel, so it's going to save a lot more in terms of mileage and fuel prices. The 2.0 litre DOHC turbo-diesel engine churns out 150hp and 320nm of torque on paper. Not bad at all. The pick-up was instantaneous. Sadly the dashboard wasn't the most inspiring or European looking, compared to the Mazda 6. But the exterior looks ok, no doubt. Seats were comfortable. The only complain was the dashboard and its meter clusters. Only Ssangyong has the best interior for an SUV, but lousy exterior (like the Ssangyong Actyon, Kyron, etc) Overall, it's the vehicle to own, if you need a family car, that could seat up to 7 people. Look at the boot space, it's not too bad too.
