After receiving an extensive refresh in 2011, the Chevrolet Captiva is set to receive a set of moderate updates for 2013, and will be displayed at next month’s Geneva Motor Show in Switzerland. This is not to be confused with the Captiva Sport, the fleet-only Chevrolet crossover here in the United States that was formally known as the Saturn Vue. There is no doubt, however, that it will play second fiddle to the 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible, which will be unveiled at the same show.
What is to be expected in regards to this modest update? There’s LED taillights, a new 18-inch wheel design, tweaked fascias, dual-zone climate control, heated rear seats, and remote start. This should hold over until the all-new model comes out on the D2xX architecture, roughly two-and-a-half years from now.

Big F%^& surprise that it’s not coming to America! Everybody wants an Equinox. Not me, no way, no how. Buy used Captiva? Screw that. GM sucks!
Don’t insult GM because your statement isn’t true! See my post below.
Saturn Vue = (US-) Chevrolet Captiva Sport = Opel/Vauxhall Antara.
In Australia also known as Holden Captiva 5
I live in Puerto Rico and we are part of America since 1898. Yet I can buy a Captiva at my local GM dealer, and I seen plenty on the road. It is smaller than my Equinox.
So the Captiva is sold in America! Here is the dealer’s ad:

If someone wants one, come down to sunny Puerto Rico!
Puerto Rico is part of America since that name for this continent came up, or if you want to be more concrete, sinde the island Puerto Rico emerged from the waters.
The number 1898 refers to the US war against Spain to rob some colonies from that European power, among them Puerto Rico, Philipines, Guam, and Cuba as a half-colonly. Also Hawaii came under full US domination then.
This photo has Subaru-fighter written all over it. If this was sold here and had a manual transmission it might have been my next car. Stupid GM.
This Version of the Captiva in this artical should definately be brought here even over the Orlando.
Show what dealer in the 48 STATES sells new Captivas to the public!
2013 Chevy Captiva is already released in here a few days ago. I made a video clip.
Yes, it’s an extensive refresh. However I think, needs more work to do…
The Captiva Sport sold here is a completely different vehicle. Captiva Sport=Saturn Vue=Opel Antera… Hof this is the Captiva sold in Europe only…
