Chevrolet MPV: Official Image

Last time, I post an article about the spy-shot images of the Chevrolet MPV in China, at the same time, I wrote that details of the said vehicle. Today, it is official, the image of the Chevrolet MPV was officially released at the 2012 New Delhi Auto Expo in India — Not bad on the design.

The said design was done collaborated with Lotus, they tweak for six-months the chassis of the vehicle and emphasize on the safety of the passenger. A possible that this vehicle will released for Asian market which I think that it will be a hit because of the seven to eight seating capacity, ideal for family ride or business used.

This vehicle would defintely compete in small-size MPV like Suzuki APV and Toyota Avanza/Xenia. And hoping that the model would have a selection of engines to choose from, like in China.

2012 Chevrolet Orlando For Philippine Market

Last month, at the Chevy Motorama held at the Music Hall in SM Mall of Asia, Chevrolet announced that they will bring the Chevrolet Orlando here in the Philippines; a seven-seater MPV or Multi-Purpose Vehicle by Chevrolet Motors. This week when I am doing my christmas shopping, I saw already that Chevrolet are already selling this vehicle and of course inspect the said vehicle.


Outside of the vehicle, it gives me this impression of a bulky feeling, a feeling that this vehicle is definitely is an American vehicle. But, this vehicle has a heart of an Asian spirit. A sleek and sophisticated design, which will think that this vehicle is a luxurious vehicle — expensive just like the Chrysler Grand Voyager. But don't be deceive by the looks, the introductory price of this vehicle is 1,188,888.00 pesos — not bad for an American brand though.

Inside of this vehicle, the company made it so good that you will think twice that this vehicle is luxury mpv again. The said vehicle offers features like cruise control, auto-climate control, auto-headlamp control, rain sensing wipers, and more.

A 1.8 ecotec petrol fed engine was offered in the Philippine market — not bad for family use and soccer moms out there.

My sources said that the vehicle will coming from Thailand — that quite new to me because as far I know that this kind of model where made from South Korea. Anyway, if you are looking for a new vehicle this coming 2012, I'll definitely recommend this model.

Some of the competitor of this model are Grand Livina of Nissan; Carens of KIA; and Grand Voyager of Chrysler — if you are a filthy rich person.
