Next month's introduction of the Captiva 5 and Captiva 7
Series II models will give Holden’s SUV range an update for 2011.
High-performing new generation petrol and diesel engines matched to six-speed transmissions and
exceptionally competitive pricing are the big Captiva stories.
There’s more power on tap across the range, complemented by fuel efficiency gains on all models.
The seven-seat Captiva 7 range now offers three new powertrain options including a price-leading 2.4
litre four-cylinder petrol variant, a 2.2 litre turbo diesel and the Commodore-proven performance
benefits of Holden’s advanced, Australian-built 3.0-litre Spark Ignition Direct Injection (SIDI) V6.
Captiva 5 buyers get the choice of a turbo diesel powerplant for the first time while refinements to
all Series II models deliver quieter cabins and improved ride and handling quality.
The make-over is accentuated by new design treatments and additional convenience features which
include Bluetooth connectivity and wireless music streaming on all seven-seat models.
The South Korean manufactured Holden Captiva’s safety features have also been enhanced with the
introduction of six airbags as standard on all models, an electric park brake and Hill Start Assist
technology to prevent “roll-away” on inclines.
Holden Chairman and Managing Director, Mike Devereux, said updates to the Series II Captiva were
intended to build on the strengths of an already successful model range in a growing market.
“The introduction of three powerful new generation engines, each providing a performance boost
and fuel efficiency benefits will make compact and medium SUV buyers sit up and take notice,” Mr
Devereux said.
“That’s on top of the fact that Captiva 5 and 7 continue to hit all the right notes in terms of
good looks, high-ride comfort, safety features and flexibility.”
Performance and Fuel Economy
Three new Captiva engine choices – a 2.4 litre DOHC four-cylinder petrol with variable valve
timing, 3.0 litre SIDI V6 and a 2.2 litre turbo diesel – each paired with six-speed transmissions,
spearhead the Series II line-up.
The new powertrain combinations deliver fuel efficiency savings across the board while generating
more performance punch than previous models.
The Captiva 7 range now includes a two-wheel-drive (2WD) model powered by a 2.4 litre four
cylinder petrol engine. It delivers fuel economy of 9.1 L/100 km (ADR081/02) - the most fuel efficient
petrol seven seater in its class, while producing 123 kW of power and 230 Nm of torque.
The new 2.2 litre turbo diesel SX model, delivers fuel economy of 8.1 L/100 km, 135 kW of power
and 400 Nm of torque – a 25 per cent increase on its predecessor.
All-wheel-drive (AWD) Captiva 7 CX and LX models offer a choice of the 2.2 litre turbo diesel or
3.0 litre SIDI V6 powerplants. The 3.0 litre V6 produces 190 kW of power and delivers fuel economy of
11.3 L/100 km.
Meanwhile buyers of the Holden Captiva 5 compact SUV may now choose between an AWD 2.2 litre turbo
diesel model and a 2WD 2.4 litre four cylinder petrol model which offers 19 per cent more power than
the engine it replaces.

Styling
The Series II Captiva 5 and 7 feature new front-end styling, dominated by bold facia treatments
which delineate differences in 'character'.
Captiva 7 sports a robustly assertive look with its new twin portal grill flanked by prominent
fog lamps. Elongated prism style headlamps sweep back to wheel arches which now accommodate three
wheel sizes -17-inch (SX), 18-inch (CX) and 19-inch (LX).
The bonnet surface is re-shaped and sculptured; turn signals are integrated into external mirrors;
and a clear lens tail lamp design updates the rear end.
The more Euro-style compact Captiva 5 is set apart by a subtle new grille treatment with mesh
detailing, echoed in the slim air intake below. Chrome-surround fog lamps make a stylish statement
while five-spoke 17-inch alloy wheels accentuate the stance.

Interior
Featuring abundant space and a standard equipment list to match, all Series II Captiva 7 cabins
include MP3 compatible CD players with auxiliary input, Bluetooth® for hands-free calling or music
streaming, plus air conditioning, leather wrap steering wheel and cruise control.
The CX model ups the luxury factor even further with climate control, Sportec bolsters, driver
information display and Rear Park Assist, while the range-topping LX adds leather appointed seat
trim, Satellite Navigation, Rear View Camera, USB port and a 7-inch multifunction touch-screen.
Clever flush fold second and third row split seating, easily transforms the Captiva 7 from
spacious seven-seat people mover to ample cargo carrier. Smart storage spaces are in abundance,
including centre console and second row armrest compartments, front and rear cup holders, and front
and rear door pockets.
The inclusion of the electric park brake also adds elegance to the interior by removing the
bulky lever and providing space for a multi-purpose storage compartment.
The Captiva 5 cabin is also equipped with stylish features including a six-disc MP3 compatible
CD player, semi-automatic climate control system, leather wrap steering wheel, front and rear park
assist, cruise control, trip computer and driver information display as standard.
Safety and driving dynamics
Captiva’s impressive array of active and passive safety technology is augmented at Series II
with the inclusion of side impact airbags as standard across the range, bringing the airbag total
to six.
An Electronic Stability Control system incorporates anti-lock braking, electronic brakeforce
distribution, brake assist, traction control, active roll-over protection and the active AWD
system which determines requirements for optimum traction.
Holden Captiva Series II also sees the introduction of Hill Start Assist (HSA) technology
across the Captiva range. It holds the vehicle on gradients of 3 per cent or steeper for 1.5
seconds after the brake pedal has been released, to assist in a smoother and safer drive away from
standstill.
Captiva models are also fitted with a descent control system which maintains a slow speed for
navigating steep downhill gradients.
Front and rear park assist comes standard on Captiva 5 while Captiva 7 CX features rear park
assist and Captiva 7 LX combines rear park assist with a standard rear-view camera.
Re-tuned chassis dynamics and improvements to steering feel contribute to a more refined ride
quality and sharper handling feel. A hydraulic control feature automatically adjusts the
suspension to maintain a level ride height on the Captiva 5 Diesel and all Captiva 7 models.

Captiva 5 and Captiva 7 SX, CX and LX are available in a choice of nine exterior finishes
