Hicom-Chevrolet Sdn Bhd unveiled the Chevrolet Captiva抯 Malaysian line-up yesterday, and although exact prices have not been determined yet, we now at least know a price range as well as spec levels of the different variants. It抯 a sexy SUV with an appealing design that reminds me somewhat of a smaller Audi Q7.
The Chevrolet Captiva (essentially a Daewoo Winstorm) will come in four flavours on our local soil - a 2WD petrol, a 2WD diesel, a 4WD petrol and a 4WD diesel. The petrol option will be a 2.4 liter 4-cylinder iron block E-TEC II engine putting out a relatively low (for it抯 displacement) 136 horsepower at 5,000rpm, and a decent 220Nm of torque at a surprisingly low 2,200rpm. This engine was definitely tuned to make all of its grunt at low RPMs, good for an SUV. The diesel option is a 2.0 liter turbocharged unit with Bosch direct injection making 150hp at 4,000rpm and 320Nm of torque at 2,000rpm.
Both engines are mated to a 5-speed automatic transmission with Tiptronic. For the 2WD models the power goes to the wheels via the front wheels, while in 4WD versions the system runs mostly with the front wheels, but sends torque to the rear wheels as needed up to a 50:50 split. The 7-seater Chevrolet Captiva uses a monocoque chassis (long wheelbase GM Theta platform) and rides on a MacPherson strut setup on the front and a multilink suspension at the rear, so comfort and handling should exceed competing SUVs that use a ladder frame chassis and rear coil spring setup.
It will be priced from RM138,000 for the cheapest 2WD petrol variant to RM155,000 for the most expensive 4WD diesel variant, which will include premium safety features such as ESP stability control, and Descent Control.
Two launches in one year by the new Hicom-Chevrolet joint venture - what抯 next? Perhaps the Asian-market Chevrolet Colorado (a rebadged Isuzu D-MAX)?

Chevrolet first used its "bowtie"logo in 1913. This logo is said to have been designed from wallpaperDurant once saw in a French hotel. Another theory of the design of themark is from the Swiss cross, because Louis Chevrolet was fromSwitzerland. |

Aku pun dulu pakai alfa....xde terjejas akidah aku dulu.
Aku pun heran...ada sesetengah puak tu...semuanya nak di haramkan...sampaikan 1 masa dulu ice-cream walls pun di jadikan isu....
Itu tak termasuk kes bumbung satu IPT di terengganu yg kononnya berlambangkan salib.
Kalau benar ianya haram dan salah..aku harap puak2 ni dpt bentangkan ayat alquran yg mengatakan penggunaan huruf T @ t adalah salah. Kalau setakat cakap...ustaz saya cakap...ustaz si polan cakap...takyah ler. |

dah le tuh.. tak yah citer halal haram kat sini... kang jadik isu lain plak...
tapi yg bertanya tu mungkin tak tanya pasal huruf T.. mungkin dia tanya dari mana asal.. atau maksud sebalik logo tu... tu ajer...
so kita back to topik... Chevy CAPTIVA |
