I get so many compliments on the looks of my car. It has a very classy look.
My vehicle is the perfect size to get in those tight spaces, it drives smoothly and I love that I set up high.

Love the Bluetooth feature and all of the storage space in vehicle.
Great mileage, lots of space, power seats, , lots of storage including huge console and storage for glasses, Bluetooth availability, two phone Charger stations, gauges include tire psi, 2 gauges for trips, uneven back seats recliner allowing more space in back if one person is sitting in backseat, back window wipers.

Captiva great for college students.
This car has many details that I find reliable. Its a large enough vehicle where I can carry a lot of items, bu also small enough to navigate around the city without any issues. The car also has excellent leg room for people that are tall. The air controls in the car are very reliable also.

Great car, but is starting to show its age with its outdated technology.
The Captiva gets great gas mileage and this is important as I drive a lot for work! The touchscreen GPS has been a life saver, although the firmware will not update for newer roads or interstates. One problem is the voice control has stopped recognizing my contacts in my phone.

What I loved about my car!
Just bad experience due to many problems that were not disclosed with me prior to me purchasing it such as battery and tire issues. Good gas mileage and sound system. Slap shift is a little odd due to the shift being buttons. Very roomy and big enough to move a queen size bed
accountCircle Denise T
I really like the sunroof, it is my first.
Trim panel where the seat adjuster is on the passenger side is broke. Had to replace a front wheel bearing. Sounds like my exhaust is loose at 83,000 miles. When I am making a swept turn my engine will just die. I am so disappointed that the console area is so tight that if something is dropped between the seat and the console it is really hard to get it out.
accountCircle Brian D
Captiva sport, wonderful daily driver.
I really enjoy the performance of the car, the overall experience of driving it and the gas mileage that it gets for having the same amount of internal space as larger SUV's. The issue that I've experienced at 100,000 light miles is the engine isn't holding up as well as others in its class. Otherwise the car is very inexpensive to own and feels luxury in spite of this.
accountCircle Courtney D
Good vehicle but the oil problem was consistent.
We had a lot of oil leak problems, that ruined the belts. Other than that, I enjoy it. I wish it was a little bigger in the back seats. Now that my kids are older, they need more room. I enjoy the heated seats, built in navigation system and phone calls through the radio.
accountCircle Amanda B
It is a small SUV and they do not sell the model anymore.
It has problems with air conditioning, it blows out at just your feet sometimes. I do like the heated leather seats and DVD player. It does drive pretty well and is good on gas. The battery had to be replaced. It had gotten worn out. It was an easy fix.
accountCircle Evan C
My vehicle is wonderful and has a beige leather interior with a black trim.
I do not have many problems with the car and I feel its features such as reliability, safety, and comfortability are all up to standard. My car drives wonderfully and I do not see myself getting a new car anytime soon. The car is not an eyesore to me and I think it is quite pretty.
accountCircle Jessica J
I love how the car looks, it is a smaller SUV the is very roomy inside.
I have owned the car for three years and all I have had to replace is the tires, batteries and brakes. It is very comfortable to drive and I love the seat warmers. I know when I get in my car it will start right up. The radio makes it fun and easy to listen to music.
accountCircle Marissa S
Nice size, bad oil consumption.
I love the size and look of this car. It rides smoothly and has nice interior and features. I love the moonroof, automatic start and heated seats. The negatives are that it does not have 4-wheel drive even though it is an SUV. It has also been in the shop quite often for oil consumption issues and catalytic converter issues.

Absolutely best car ever!
It is extremely comfortable and safe for my daughter and I. We haven't had any real problems and the performance is exactly what we were looking for. I love the features that make life easier like Bluetooth hook up and the seats folding down for more room.

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Susan G.

Seats 5. Has a sunroof. Gets good gas mileage. The back seats fold down as it holds everything I need. Easy to drive and park. The seating is comfortable. You sit up higher. Wheelbase is good as not to rollover.

likeFilled Derek R.

Smaller family vehicle makes it great for hauling the kids to soccer practice or band rehearsals but it's also not going to take up the entire driveway. In do not like the fact that it does not come with a full size spare but then again how many vehicles do come with anything more than a donut.

likeFilled Joshua G.

This car handles well with spacious interior. The car sits high so it's easier for people to get in and out of. This car is fuel efficient and is joy to drive. Bright lights... Easy to navigate control panel and dashboard.

likeFilled Rosalie B.

My Chevrolet Captiva sport is very economical. I am disabled and it is quite spacious. It is very comfortable even on long trips. So far, it is extremely reliable. There is a very reasonable amount of cargo space and it seats 5 people comfortably.

likeFilled Christina B.

Fuel Economy, road handling, cargo capacity for everyday use. The driver ergonomics are remarkably versatile, allowing the vehicle to accommodate a wide variety of body types. The cargo area can be switched from passenger seating to full space, allowing more groceries and other materials to be transported.

likeFilled Andrew B.

The vehicle is rather fuel efficient for a car of its size. In addition to that, the vehicle is pretty spacious and leaves enough room for us to travel in comfortably with our toddler and pets, while still feeling like a small car.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Susan G.

No remote start or backup camera. Does not come in a V6 or four wheel drive. No shade to cover items in the back. Radio does not show any information about calls coming in like the radio in the Equinox does. No place near the drivers side to put a purse when you have a passenger in the other seat.

dislikeFilled Derek R.

The vehicles has very few cons, as fat as I am concerned. I don't like that fact that it does not come with a full size spare but then again I am willing to bet that the overwhelming majority of vehicles do not have the full size spare. This vehicles seems like it should come with it though.

dislikeFilled Joshua G.

This car does not have the best shocks for people who drive on bumpy roads. Windshield wiper are not great. Rear windshield wipers don't cover enough of back window. Other than that it's a wonderful car to drive in.

dislikeFilled Rosalie B.

The Chevrolet Captiva Sport is overall a good, reliable vehicle. I am Guess abled and sometimes it is difficult to find a vehicle that can suit all of My physical needs. All in all, My physical needs my only real complaint would probably be that I wish that it had a little more leg room.

dislikeFilled Christina B.

The stereo system does not accommodate non-apple products. There is a dearth of charging ports for mobile devices. It is a little bit too light for the amount of torque it can produce from a cold start, and lacks four-wheel drive.

dislikeFilled Andrew B.

The Bluetooth that comes stock in the car only handles phone calls. This seems pretty out of date, especially for any car made after 2010. In addition, the car refuses to keep track of the mileage under 50 miles to empty. Instead it just reads 'low', this makes me nervous to drive it when it is low on fuel.

My Captiva was less than two years old when I purchased it for $18,000 in 2015. I considered the price good given comparable vehicles and my love of Chevy.

I got it around 12500 in my honest opinion it’s not worth what the retail is for it but I can understand why
Donald D.
It is a good value. As you asking about initial cost or operating cost? I bought it used pre owned certified. Since it was a lease vehicle it had good service records
