Chevrolet releases the new Captiva LTZ model.

Standard equipment includes full leather trim with heated front seats, electronic climate control, cruise control, electrically-adjustable driver's seat, automatic headlamp control, rain sensor wipers, and electrically-folding mirrors.

Safety features include ABS, ESC and traction control, front and side airbags for the driver and front passenger, plus roof curtain airbags. The Isofix child seat restraint system is fitted along with child locks on the rear doors. These features result in a four-star crash rating for the Captiva LTZ.

In addition to audible distance sensors to assist parking, the LTZ also has a reversing camera as standard.

Both manual and automatic options are powered by the 150PS 2.0 litre VCDi diesel engine. Combined fuel economy figures are 38.2 mpg for the manual and 32.8 mpg for the automatic. The manual emits 197 g/km of CO2 and the automatic 225 g/km.

Keith Jones, Chevrolet national fleet sales manager, commented "This is a high quality SUV that matches more premium marques on specification, comfort, ride and handling. The initial surge in demand suggests that we have absolutely the right product offer and that Captiva LTZ is a car that fleet managers and company car drivers want to see on their choice lists from which to choose."
