2013 Chevrolet Captiva UK prices

Following its recent debut at the Geneva Motor Show, Chevrolet has now announced UK prices for the 2013 Captiva SUV.

Lead-in model for the range is the £21,295 front-wheel drive LS, which is powered by a 160 bhp (120 kW / 163 PS) 2.2 litre, four-cylinder diesel engine. Equipment levels are fairly basic but alloy wheels, a digital radio, electric windows all-round and remote control central locking are all fitted as standard.

However, anybody considering that particular variant might want to visit a Vauxhall dealer first. That’s because the virtually identical Antara in Exclusiv guise costs £20,915. What’s more, the Vauxhall’s specification additionally includes electrically-heated front seats, Bluetooth connectivity and self-levelling rear suspension.

In the middle of the Captiva line-up sits the LT. It features all-wheel drive and a more powerful 181 bhp (135 kW / 184 PS) version of the 2.2 litre engine, as well as self-levelling suspension, cruise control, dual-zone climate control, part-leather upholstery and rear parking sensors.

The third and final trim grade is the LTZ, which is priced from £29,995 with a manual transmission. It comes with heated front seats, power adjustment for the driver’s seat, full leather upholstery, keyless entry and start, an eight-speaker audio system, satellite navigation, a rear parking camera, front parking sensors, larger 19” alloy wheels and privacy glass.

A generous kit list then, but again the equivalent Vauxhall appears to offer better value. The similarly-specified Antara SE Nav carries a price tag of £27,325, a significant saving versus the Captiva.

2.2 VCDi LTZ £29,995

Compared to its predecessor, the changes made to the Captiva for 2013 are purely cosmetic. Up front, they consist of a lower bumper, revised fog lights and a new grille mesh design, while the rear gets LED light clusters and a re-profiled bumper.

The 2013 Chevrolet Captiva is available to order now.
