"Captiva 5 is a compact SUV that will attract a different set of buyers than those who require the seven-seater," Holden Executive Director of Sales and Marketing, John Elsworth. "It is sure to appeal to couples and families with its attractive European styling, well specified equipment level and competitive price point."
The new SUV will be powered by a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine and will come with either a 2WD configuration with manual transmission or an AWD with automatic gearbox.
Standard features on the Captiva 5 range include:
- Driver and front passenger airbags
- Side curtain airbags

- Traction Control
- 17” alloy wheels
- Air conditioning
- 6 Disc CD player
- Cloth seat trim
- Leather wrap steering wheel

Captiva 5 will go on sale in December and will compete with Toyota Rav4, Nissan X-Trail and Honda CRV. Captiva 5 2WD with manual transmission will be priced at $27,990 while the AWD version with an automatic gearbox will cost $30,990.
Holden says the Captiva is the most popular mid-size SUV in Australia, with sales above those of Ford's Territory which comes the second in terms of new car sales. According to the Australian carmaker, the company sold 6,998 vehicles year to date, accounting for 15.1 per cent of the competitive medium SUV market.
