    Honda CRV for me. It took some getting used to but have grown to like the exterior (including the front). It also has good reviews and comments from the other threads.

    Don't know too much about the Captiva's performance. Saw it at the World Trade last August and looks OK NOT striking for me though. Same as other CRDI's, only time will tell how this fans out. So far I've only read mediocre reviews on it, nothing so dramatic. I suppose if this is indeed a good vehicle, then impressions will change very fast.

    Its hard to avoid it, many people still associate the name "Daewoo" with the OLD Daewoo Motors before they became part of GM.
    Its got GM mechanicals, GM platform, GM designers, so even if the main production is in Korea, I'd consider the Captiva GMDAT's 1st real GM vehicle, actually it really is if you research it.

    If it isn't, then that Thailand Fortuner SUV out there is not a Toyota, because its not sold or made in Japan.

    PS: Would it be easier to accept the Captiva as a GM product if it had an Opel badge?
    The Opel Antara, Theta platform twin of the Captiva.


    On the Brighter side, being manufactured in Asia makes the Captiva much more affordable than its longer cousin the USDM Chevy Equinox(built on a LWB version of the Theta platform).


    PS: For those getting a Captiva... to may it look like the original S3X Concept... just slap on some 20 inch wheels!

    i like the exterior look of the captiva... however, that's only as far as it goes... i don't like the interior it has no appeal to me... it looks very American...

    kung meron kayo doubts sa chevy captiva being a daewoo, kami naman naka-own na ng chevy venture na gawang china. sarap sumakay 'd best. yun nga lang lakas lumaklak ng gasolina, parang nag 2km/liter pa ata yun sa'min grabeh! uutusan ka lang bumili ng coke light sa 7-11, mas mahal pa inubos mo sa gas kaysa sa can of coke light.

    grabe din sa parts tumaga tapos malalaman laman ko na service vehicle lang sa shanghai ang chevy venture, kumbaga parang starex lang nila dun. kaya binenta na namin kagad

    maybe mag crv nalang talaga kami. sayang lang, kung kasing ganda sana siya ng captiva. or maybe antay antay nalang muna kami. wala pa bang naka Captiva dito?

    OT: if your considering the CRV then I suggest you take a look at the Hyundai Santa Fe... the CRDI is more economical, rides better (i test drove the CRV), better value for money (my opinion)...

    Thats a good idea.
    Another thing is to test drive the different choices too(CR-V, Captiva, and maybe the Santa Fe).

    ang di ko lang gusto sa CRV eh gasoline. pero lahat sa kanya gusto ko na.
    if bibili ka make sure 4x2 kung ayaw mo gumastos masyado sa fuel.

    if I will rank my preferred SUV based on the available models right now

    1. Sta Fe CRDi
    2. Honda CRV
    3. Chevy Captiva CRDi
    4. Fortuner D4D
    5. Sportage CRDi
    6. Outlander but only if may diesel. sabi daw may lalabas

    sa Honda lang talaga ako papagyag maski gasoline engine
