Chevrolet Wants to Captivate Filipinos With its new 7-seater

The 2024 Chevrolet Captiva takes the best of both worlds: the stylish looks of a crossover and the spaciousness of a 7-seater MPV. The brand new Captiva features an attractive exterior with sleek lines and sporty aesthetics, ensuring it stands out on the road, whether you're commuting in the city or embarking on a weekend road trip.

Inside, the Captiva is all about practicality and comfort. With its 3-row configuration, it provides the ultimate in flexibility. The second-row seats offer a 60/40 split-fold, while the third-row seats can be folded 50/50, allowing you to customize the interior layout based on your cargo needs.

Whether it's packing gear for a family adventure or just a grocery run, the Captiva's trunk space can be expanded from a modest 117 liters with all seats upright, to a cavernous 1,709 liters when the second and third rows are folded down.
