What is the fuel consumption of the Chevrolet Captiva 7-seater 2.4?
2 Answers
For the Captiva 2.4L automatic 7-seater luxury edition, the comprehensive fuel consumption is 10.2L/100km; for the luxury navigation edition, it's also 10.2L/100km. Additional information is as follows: 1. In terms of power, it uses a V6 engine, available in 2.4L and 3.2L displacements. The 2.4L engine is relatively average in power, while the 3.2L offers ample power, light throttle response, quick starts and acceleration, and effective noise insulation with minimal engine noise during driving. However, some users have reported noticeable tire and wind noise at high speeds. The transmission features clear gear positions and smooth shifting. 2. In terms of space, the 7-seater model is suitable for larger families, providing adequate overall passenger space. Additionally, the space is flexible and versatile, with significant room when the seats are folded down. The rear window can be opened separately, making it convenient to access items in the trunk.
I've been driving this Chevrolet Captiva 7-seater with the 2.4L engine for several years. It's spacious and great for families, but fuel consumption varies. For daily city commuting with frequent traffic lights or congestion, it can reach around 12L per 100km. On highways for long trips, it's stable and easily stays between 8-9L. When fully loaded with passengers and luggage for family trips, fuel consumption increases—I've experienced up to 14L on mountain climbs, but with good maintenance, it can stay below 10L. After changing tires, fuel efficiency noticeably improved; the original tires were a bit thirstier, but adopting stable driving habits helps a lot—avoid hard acceleration or sudden braking. Overall, my experience shows it usually fluctuates around 10L, which isn't too bad. For a 7-seat SUV, this is quite average and more economical than some high-displacement vehicles.
