giddyup Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 A promotional ad that went on for about 15 minutes. Certainly looked nice and has a host of bells and whistles, price starts around 1 mill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alan grice Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 I believe it's made by Daewoo.So are some Toyotas. Even BMW Supras are being recalled already. We got the first Trailblazer somewhere here, and it wont die, just luck i guess.Sent from my iPhone using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saab's were actually Subaru. Jaguars were actually Ford. What is the world coming to? Where or will it end? Are we just supposed to buy sh!t and shut up?

This is a new model, hopefully there will be an improvement. Although after reading some local reviews it seem the new Captiva falls short in a few different ways.

The picture being used in this topic is only a drawing... According to wiki: The second generation Captiva, which is a rebadged Baojun 530, was introduced in Colombia in November 2018 and Thailand in March 2019.[ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coops Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 On 10/15/2019 at 9:14 AM, giddyup said: I believe it's made by Daewoo. Nope. If it was Korean made it might be a better thing nowadays than being an American Chevrolet.... but it isn't. It's even worse than being a Chevrolet. It's Chinese. https://www.bangkokpost.com/auto/1705120/2019-chevrolet-captiva-first-drive-review " Thailand’s opening-model some 20 years back was a seven-seat MPV, merely a rebadged Opel Zafira from GM’s sold European subsidiary. Then there’s the Colorado (and its Trailblazer SUV cousin) which shared a skeleton with the D-Max (and MU-X SUV) from Japan’s commercial vehicle specialist Isuzu. The American bow-tie brand also had its days with passenger cars like the Optra, Sonic and Cruze coming from GM Daewoo, a Korean operation that has already gone bankrupt. In fact, the car-based Captiva SUV was also developed at GM Daewoo. So where will the pending second-generation Captiva come from? No problem, as GM is now being really open, so to speak, about its 20-year-plus relationship with Chinese maker SAIC. So yes, the new Captiva has been nourished at the SGMW (SAIC-GM-Wuling) joint venture as a cousin to the Baojun 530 and Wuling Almaz. And because the Almaz is built at GM’s new subsidiary in Indonesia, Chevrolet Sales Thailand has found it fitting to import the Captiva from our Asean member nation via no import duty."
