2013 Chevrolet Orlando Specifications Review Price Engine
welcome to Neonista.blogspot.com website that provides a variety of information about the latest cars in the world. and this time we will share information about the 2013 Chevrolet Orlando, the following information
Last year, someone at General Motors figured out that the new Chevrolet Orlando seven-passenger multi-purpose vehicle isnt the right product for the United States. So the compact Mazda5 competitor was scrubbed from 2012 model year plans here, despite the hotbed of activity in that segment.
Come to think of it, Ford came to the same conclusion for its Focus-based C-Max and has decided to sell its Mazda5 competitor here only as low-volume-by-popular-demand hybrid and plug-in hybrid models. In the U.S., the C-Max will be as distinctively green as the Toyota Prius and Chevrolet Volt. Goodbye hotbed.
As for that Chevrolet Orlando, the South Korean-built MPV is just right for Asia, Europe and Canada. After all, our friendly neighbors to the north still put the Queens picture on its paper money, use coins called "loonies" and "twoonies" for anything less than $5 and officially speak two languages. See "South Park" for other cultural differences. See Trey Parker & Matt Stones "The Book of Mormons" for a unique take on the name, "Orland
Canada is the place that embraced the 1962 Chevy II, which was no more than a bottom-scraping compact car in the United States, as the split-grilled Acadian Beaumont family car sold in Pontiac dealerships.
"Here is a car excitingly new and refreshingly different, created by General Motors to satisfy, and satisfy completely, those Canadians who want moderate, yet family-sized transportation with ample room for six adults," the 62 Acadian brochure [its emphasis] crows, courtesy oldcarbrochures.com
So even in a country thats bigger than the United States and has much, much more space with one-tenth of our population level, families dont feel compelled to carry everything and everyone with them, the way Americans do. If they think "moderate," we think BIG.
Price range is CDN$21,490 to CDN$31,230, which on October 11 was the equivalent of $20,895 to $30,365, including delivery, covering LS, LT and LTZ trim levels. I tried the popular LT.
It was planned as a replacement for the five-passenger Chevy HHR when it was still considered for the U.S. market. With its squared-off rear-shoulders, the Chevy Orlando looks like a taller, more space-efficient, de-flavorized HHR.
The third row of seats is for teenagers and younger kids, with odd combo grabhandles/cupholders encroaching in from the door panels. Theres enough legroom though, with low, thin-cushioned seats that force ones knees up toward ones chin. The narrowed two-position third-row seat probably will have you rubbing elbows with a fellow third-row passenger, and if youre a few inches south of six feet tall, headroom is barely adequate.source:motortrend.com
