Barely a few days back, Chevrolet announced that they will launch the Trailblazer SUV in India this year and ever since then, we have been beginning to think that this may mean an end to Captiva, however moments back the company surprised us with yet another announcement.

They have launched the 2015 Captiva at starting prices of Rs 25.13 lakhs (ex-showroom, Delhi) in India. The crossover claims to have best in class safety featuring 6 airbags which include driver and front passenger airbags, seat side and roof side airbags, front seatbelt pre-tensioners and load limiters and height-adjustable front seatbelts.
