Chevrolet Captiva 7-Seater: Flexible Space for Families That Never Travel the Same Way Twice

Family life changes from one day to the next.

Monday might mean a regular school and office run. Saturday could involve taking the children somewhere with their friends. Sunday may bring grandparents or relatives along for lunch.

The Chevrolet Captiva 7-Seater gives families an interior that can change with those different situations.

Its three rows provide seating for as many as seven occupants, but the real advantage is that the rear seating is not completely fixed.

The second row has a 60:40 split and sliding function, while the third row folds in a 50:50 split.

That gives owners different ways to configure the cabin depending on how many people are travelling.

For larger gatherings, families can make use of the seven-seat layout. When fewer people are aboard, folding part of the third row gives the interior another configuration for the journey.

It is an approach that suits households where passenger needs can change frequently.

The Captiva also brings comfort into that flexibility. Perforated leather seats are fitted throughout, while the driver's six-way power adjustment makes it easier to set up the driving position.

And stretching above the cabin is a panoramic sunroof, which helps create a brighter atmosphere and gives passengers another view to enjoy during longer drives.

A big family vehicle does not simply need more seats.

It needs to be ready for all the different ways a family uses those seats.
