CAR's just driven the Orlando people carrier in Spain to see how it compares with the new Ford C-Max, Renault Scenic, Vauxhall Zafira and their ilk. Read our first road test review of the new 2011 Orlando to see if it hits the spot. Chevrolet Orlando: the big picture The Orlando is a product of GM's Delta architecture. All new Chevys are being engineered for world sale, give or take a budget car for south America. So the Orlando seven-seat MPV is spun from the same box of bits as the Cruze C-segment car, or Vauxhall Astra for that matter. It's an appealing proposition for the typical family buyer. The Orlando is a seven-seater MPV only - no five-seater will be offered - yet is priced from an attractive sounding £16,395 for a 1.8 petrol LS (diesels kick off at £17,645). And wait until you hear the full Chevrolet after-care package: this thing comes with a five-year warranty, servicing, breakdown and MoT insurance cover. As standard. Just think about that for a moment, and you'll realise how Joe Bloggs will find that pretty tempting. You'll only have to budget for fuel and insurance for 60 months. It's like Daewoo all over again. Orlando in the metal While there's no arguing with the brilliant ownership package, the Chevrolet Orlando still presents something of an eyesore at first sight. Each to their own, and all that, but we didn't find its bluff lines and awkward proportions as convincing as many rivals' designs. It's better inside, mind. The Orlando has five conventional doors, rather than the sliding doors favoured by the new Ford C-Max. Access is good to all three rows of seats, especially since the middle row tumbles 60:40 to allow you to step into the rearmost pair of pews. As standard, all five rear seats in the Orlando tumble into the floor at the tug of a lever. Depending on how far back the front seats are slid, you may have to fiddle the headrests for a flush fold but you won't need a degree in advanced leverage to work the Orlando's pews. Boot space is gigantic as a five-seater, shrinking to surprisingly weedy when configured as a seven-seater. But the good news is that even gangly adults like your 6ft 2in correspondent can sit comfortably in the third row. Enough sensible chat! What's the Orlando like to drive? This is an MPV, remember. So the milieu is important. The driving position is good and the ambience inside a reminder just how far Chevrolet has come. It's easily on a par with a Zafira's cabin: switchgear is logically laid out (and identical to Vauxhall's in many instances), the degree of seat and wheel adjustment is generous and apart from a whopping D-pillar blindspot, the Orlando is not at all intimidating to drive. Moreover, the materials and build quality are fine. We tested the 2.0-litre diesel, which will be the most popular UK seller. It'll come in 128bhp or 161bhp trims, and we drove the higher powered derv. Performance is lively enough for what is a heavy car, but watch out for the tall gearing, which has the four-pot spinning over at a barely awake 1500rpm at 60mph. On the M-way, you'll change down from sixth. Lazy gearing aside, the Orlando is an accomplished all-rounder. Ours was in the inevitable media-spec top LTZ trim with the optional £2000 Exec Pack, which adds 18in rims, full leather, sat-nav and heated front seats. The good news is it rode really quite well, with a plump quality even on the outsized alloys; there's some patter at motorway speeds, but it absorbs most corrugations. The Orlando can be hustled along, but let's face it few buyers will drive like that. Of rather more importance is the quiet refinement, the light steering and the little touches to ease family life on the road: an extra rear-view mirror for monster patrol, and a clever pop-up stereo panel to plug in and hide MP3 players behind the radio panel. Verdict Chevrolet knows which side its bread is buttered. The Orlando is good, simple family fodder. It doesn't pretend to be anything more, and the accent is firmly on good value and no-nonsense practical virtues. Even base models come with stability control, air-con, electric windows and mirrors, remote locking, tinted windows and more sockets than you'll have phones to plug in. Add in the unrivalled aftercare package, and many buyers will be thrilled. But Chevrolet still has to overcome brand snobbery. And those bluff, Atlantic looks will hardly help endear the Orlando to European sensibilities. Ultimately, what holds back the Orlando from a near-four-star rating is the equally well priced competition: a seven-seat C4 Grand Picasso starts at £17,745 a Renault Grand Scenic £16,970, while Ford's new Grand C-Max kicks off at £18,745. The old 'Daewoo legacy' Chevrolets used to be priced 20-25% below the competition, but the newest models have crept up in cost. Take your pick between sharper dynamics, lower CO2 and more cutting edge engines; but for many buyers, the Chevy's killer spec and price advantage will outweigh such considerations. They won't be disappointed by the Orlando one jot. 1 Rate this article... 1 2 3 4 5 Average rating: 3.5 (23 votes) Discuss this Add your comment Sign in You must be signed in to submit a comment.

We have to make due with the Rondo, which is just too small. 09 December 2010 16:42 UrbanNomad says RE: Chevrolet Orlando 2.0 VCDi LTZ (2010) CAR review Strangely I like the look of the Orlando, being a Qashqai owner and fan of Cross-Over styling it impresses. The angular lines are welcome as more cars are designed solely for increased aerodynamics to improve fuel efficiency. It also adds masculinity to MPV design although the rear skid plate and chrome tail gate treatment is a step too far! In a nice dark metallic it would look imposing, yet remaining a decent size. Should appeal to families and also single sporty types, who want something big enough to take their mountain bikes. This is the car Nissan's X-Trail should have been, as opposed to the current dumpy looking model. a good effort, will wait to see more road test reviews, but could be a potential Qashqai replacement. 04 December 2010 16:54 car4mh says RE: Chevrolet Orlando 2.0 VCDi LTZ (2010) CAR review I like the look of the Orlando, although it helps I'm partial to 'bluff, Atlantic looks', and Korean food . The GMC Granite concept from the last Detroit motor show did an even better job of the boxy van looks, and didn't have to suffer that odd split-level Chevy grille, but never mind. If Chevrolets are getting better and sharing GM tech with their European cousins, as well as no longer being bargain-priced then what's the point of Opel/Vauxhall? Can the GM Europe range be successfully positioned upmarket of Chevrolet as it appears VW have done relative to Skoda/Seat? 03 December 2010 22:45 revcounter says RE: Chevrolet Orlando 2.0 VCDi LTZ (2010) CAR review As a loud, boorish, but not fat Yank I must say I am mystified at GM's attempt to prove a point by growing the Chevrolet brand In Europe. Opel and Vauxhaull are just fine. Pontiac would have been a better ploy if Americana were the selling point. 03 December 2010 22:01 shiftright says RE: Chevrolet Orlando 2.0 VCDi LTZ (2010) CAR review Seems so many bloggers are quite predisposed to automatically deride anything from a US manufacturer in a flagrant case of badge snobbery. I've long lambasted US cars offered in Europe because they were so out of touch with the market realities here, but this seems like this a well assembled, well engineered good to drive family hauler with a great warranty and service package. Kudos, Chevy! I also don't find anything remotely offensive about the front end. 03 December 2010 19:29 Show all comments Become a CAR contributor Upload stories, photos or videos direct to the site, or email newsdesk@carmagazine.co.uk.

Top speed: 130 mph 0-60 mph: 8.7 seconds Consumption: 42.1 mpg CO2 emissions: 177 g/km Also worth considering: Kia cee'd, Hyundai i30, Vauxhall Astra Chevrolet's Cruze is turning into a car that people might actually want to buy. It has always been good enough; it's just that it has so far been available only as a saloon, and that has inevitably kept it out of the mainstream in Europe, where hatchbacks are the norm for Golf-sized cars. But now a hatchback, first shown at this month's Paris Motor Show, is on the way, which should finally allow the Cruze to fulfil its potential. There are good reasons why the Cruze was the way it was at the beginning. The Cruze is a sister car of the latest Vauxhall/Opel Astra – one of the reasons it does the basics well - and comes from General Motors' former Daewoo operations in Korea, a country that is rapidly becoming an important source of good but inexpensive cars. It's designed to be built and sold around the world, including in Chevrolet's traditional home, the USA, as well as emerging markets such as China, India and Russia, where saloons tend to be much more popular than hatches. None of those countries are big on diesels either, although Chevrolet has that base covered already, with a two-litre engine available in 125 or 150 horsepower forms and with a manual gearbox or a six-speed automatic transmission. I tried the more powerful of these with the automatic, which provided a completely different driving experience to the last Cruze I drove, which had a 1.6-litre petrol engine. The 1.6 petrol was sweet enough but not very peppy, so manoeuvres such as accelerating in order to merge with motorway traffic required a certain amount of planning. Gearing in top was low, meaning that the engine was turning away busily even when cruising. The 150 horsepower diesel, by contrast has ample torque and very high gearing, meaning strong acceleration and relaxed motorway driving, even with the automatic transmission, which is a good six-speeder. The engine itself is thoroughly modern in feel, quite smooth and free-revving, but the official fuel consumption and CO2 emissions figures are a bit behind those for the latest European diesels, which is consistent with the slightly disappointing “real world” mpg figures recorded by the Cruze's own on-board computer which were typically in the low- to mid-forties. That said, the official figures for the 125 horsepower diesel with manual transmission are rather better. For the rest, the diesel Cruze is much the same as the petrol version, with good on-road behaviour, although a bit softer than the European norm, and a fairly pleasant and functional interior, albeit with lighter shades and apparently more basic trim materials than some of the European competition. Those characteristics are probably the result of the Cruze's “world car” character which needs to appeal to a very wide range of customers in many different countries. As well as the forthcoming hatchback Cruze, Chevrolet will be introducing the Orlando people carrier which uses the same platform; both should make the company a much stronger contender in the Golf class.

Steve Walker reports on the Captiva 2.0 VCDi LSThe Chevrolet Captiva is an American-badged 4x4 that's not afraid to trade under the old `more metal for the money' banner. In LS trim with the 2.0 VCDi diesel engine installed, its value proposition looks strong. There are only five seats in this version and no four-wheel-drive but the price is correspondingly low and you still get a sound engine along with that voluminous interior. Not bad.It was a tactic that served American car manufacturers very nicely for a very long time, in their home market at least. Why should they bother with trivialities when the simple equation of big, impressive-looking car plus small price tag equalled lots of sales and healthy profits. Chevrolet was a fine exponent of this. Back not too long ago, it turned out its share of chrome-spangled behemoths that occupied two lanes and drank like a camel on a stag night. Some might point to the brand's US market SUV range and venture that it still does. Today, Chevrolet is building a name for itself in the UK with models designed around European tastes but the Captiva 2.0 VCDi LS proves it's still not adverse to the old `more metal for the money' magic. The Captiva is a large and spacious compact 4x4. In certain guises the model is even available with seven seats but the Captiva 2.0 VCDi LS is very much a five-seater designed to prop-up the rest of the diesel range with its tempting sticker price and respectably fulsome equipment list. Chevrolet is keen to point-out just how affordable the car is compared to equivalent versions of rivals like Nissan's X-TRAIL and Hyundai's Santa Fe, a tactic that's unlikely to be wasted on the UK's cost-conscious compact 4x4 buyers. Chevrolet offers seven models in the Captiva range and it's a measure of the importance they put on diesel motive power that all but one of them features the 148bhp VCDi diesel engine under the bonnet. The other option is the oft-forgotten entry-level 2.4-litre petrol model and like that car, the Captiva 2.0 VCDi LS we feature here is front-wheel-drive only. This lack of four driven wheels shouldn't concern buyers unduly as most will never take the Captiva off-road and the extra on-road traction can be replaced to an extent by a little more care taken in the wet."Perhaps the price of a 2.0 VCDi LS is all you need to pay to get the best bits of the Captiva…."The engine itself is a good one. It will punt the big-boned Chevy to a top speed of 112mph. High speed refinement would be helped by the fitment of a six-speed gearbox although there is a more relaxed automatic option available at a price. The peak torque of 320NM arrives at a lowly 2,200rpm which gives the powerplant a nicely sinewy feel. The Captiva's design is clever in reducing the perceived bulk of what is a surprisingly spacious vehicle. Viewed in isolation, the Captiva looks to be about the size of a Toyota RAV4 or a Suzuki Grand Vitara but the tale of the tape shows that it's a much heftier piece of metalwork. For a start, the Captiva is fully 4,639mm long, compared with the 4,415 of the Toyota and the 4,470mm of the Suzuki. That's why the Chevy has room for three rows of seats or, in the case of this LS model, a prodigious boot of 465 litres. This can rise to 930 litres with the rear seats folded. It's low pricing and equipment levels are as important to the Chevrolet Captiva's value proposition as its size. It undercuts a whole heap of rivals on price but the LS version still comes with a decent amount of standard kit. There are 16" alloy wheels, electric heated door mirrors, eight-way adjustment for the driver's seat, a CD stereo with a socket for plugging in an MP3 player, audio controls on the steering wheel, remote central locking and roof rails. Buyers also get the Captiva's split opening tailgate where the glass can be raised-up seperately providing access to the boot where space is tight. Safety equipment on the Captiva includes front side and curtain airbags along with anti-lock brakes but the ESC stability control system is not standard. The plusher trim levels do have it and they look more appealing generally but it would be easy to conclude that the LS has most of the features that you really need, even if that ESC system would have been a worthwhile inclusion. The Captiva VCDi LS probably isn't going to break the bank to buy and running it shouldn't send you to the wall either. The diesel's 38.7mpg combined fuel economy figure is a whole lot more palatable than the petrol's 31.7mpg result and emissions for the two are 195g/km and 217g/km respectively giving diesel a further edge. The front wheel drive LS model also has a slight advantage over the heavier four-wheel-drive derivatives which return 37.1mpg and 197g/km emissions. Depreciation is a tougher figure to pin down. While the Chevrolet badge will help residuals, the market for this sort of vehicle is stuffed with more well-known and established contenders. That said, the excellent warranty arrangement offered by Chevrolet could help prop up values. Insurance is reasonable and repair costs are said to be among the industry's most competitive. The Chevrolet Captiva 2.0 VCDi LS puts a strong case forward for itself. As the most affordable diesel model in a Captiva range that counts size, low costs and equipment provision as core strengths, this is a car would seem a sensible destination for buyers' money. There's no four-wheel-drive and no seven-seat option in the LS but why pay for them if you're not going to use them? The car has the size, the economical oil-burning engine and it doesn't feel particularly lacking in anything from an equipment perspective. Perhaps the price of a 2.0 VCDi LS is all you need to pay to get the best bits of the Captiva.Facts At A Glance CAR: Chevrolet Captiva 2.0VCDi LS PRICE: £18,415 - on the road INSURANCE GROUP: 10 CO2 EMISSIONS: 195g/km PERFORMANCE: Max Speed 112mph / 0-60mph 10.8s FUEL CONSUMPTION: (urban) 32.1mpg / (extra urban) 43.5mpg / combined) 38.7mpg STANDARD SAFETY FEATURES: Twin front, curtain and side airbags, ABS.
