Holden Captiva CG Active (2006-2018)

Great value 7 seater SUV – Bought the car 2017 and so far love this car. It has everything with a low price tag. Leather seats, 7 seaters, Android auto, reverse camera, sunroof, keyless entry. It drives well and felt better with the eco button on. High driving seat as well, so it is easy to see your surrounding. When I bought this, it comes with 7 years warranty and capped service, so that is a big bonus. Show details

It’s comfortable – Use my car to drop kids at school and drove them to curricular activities. Very high fuel consumption. The car itself is very comfortable and leather seats are great with kids. Plenty of room in the boot and in the back. Wish it had aircon in the back though for the kids. Show details

Great value for what you pay – Bought Captiva Active 7 seater on May First trip was from Melbourne to Sydney and Return. 7 People were there on the trip (3 kids). Though we had problem with the luggage space, but the ride was really good. Economy of average 11L/100KM for overall trip we got. This car was really cheap in initial price compared to its competitors. Leather… Read more

seat, Sun roof are included in the value. Android /Apple Auto is really a add on feature. The A/C vent in the last row make sure that the kids are kept in right temperature. Zone climate control is really a good feature. Good reversing camera add value to the car.

Only 16,000km with issue after issue. Holden is reluctant to fix! – I have the Holden Captiva Active 7 seat SUV and its been nothing but trouble. We purchased it brand new in 2017 and so far we have had sunroof electronics fail, and the rubber deteriorate. The clock spring needed replacing as the complete front dash lights were flickering. The two front wheel bearings needed replacement as well. All this with… Read more

only 16,000km on the odo and being purchased and only serviced at Holden. I have also been told by Holden mechanics the Diesels are even worse and to steer clear.

Captiva Active, awesome suv – Pretty much everything about car is good, ample legroom front and back. 7 seat option, sunroof, gives roughly 15 ltr/100km petrol consumption in city. Leather seats , android auto and apple play included. Reversing camera and daytime LEDs gives fine touch. Power cigratte socket in boot with aircon vents for 7 seat configuration.  Show details

Love my car – I just love my brand new Captiva. I runs so quiet, it smells great with the leather interier. It drives so smooth. Has a clear reverse camera. Its easy enough to work out all of its extras. I would recommend these to anyone. I go extras added to mine but it looks beautiful.  Show details

2015 Captiva 7 Active – First hand Captiva 7 Active with a capped service price. Very reliable and comfortable for short strips around 400 - 500km per trip. Having an extra 2 back seats is an asset whenever you have extra kids on board. Easy to fill once middle seats are flat. Enjoy the cruise control which reduces the running cost of fuel in long routes.  Show details

Its not a captiva its a CRAPTIVA – What i dislike about my 2016 holden captiva 7 seats sunroof leather seats etc. Where do i start. I brought my car on the 25 oct 2016 and 6 mths later drivers side struts and bearings and then 5 months later the left side went had repaired finally 2 weeks ago now 13 months old and the drivers side is going again. In the town i love in there are no… Read more

dirt roads and the speed limits are 40 and 50 all round town with only two short roads with 60. I will never recommend a holden captiva as it is nothing but a Holden CRAPTIVA

Amazing value with new captiva – The new captiva are an amazing value they come leather and sunroof , cruise control . I bought mine an year ago Holden captiva active its 2.4 l but powerfull as well compare to others it’s 123kw @ 5600 rpm which quite quick even with family of four. Ok on fuel I m getting around 10.5 liters per 100 Kim’s Holden has given 7 yrs new car warranty for… Read more

price of 26k . This is an bargain with capped price servicing for 270 covers all your maintanance cost.

I would highly recommend this product. They have really done lots of improvements on the product.

Ok for a cheap car – The Holden Captiva is a prime example of getting what you pay for. It is a cheap 7 seater so serves a purpose. However, little things like no air conditioning vents in the back anywhere is a poor design for the Australian climate. Not bad but would spend more on a better car next time too.  Show details

captiva perfect as a family car – Driving it is great handles the road very well for short to long distances. low noise level makes the driving experience better and cost to run it low to medium comfort is great with plenty of leg room, with boot space ample overall a great car to own and drive  Show details

Love the car – Love our car only problem no CD player but live everything else about it very cheap to run very comfortable for long distance driving .having no CD player is a nuisance because I don't have music on phone ok for younger people but there is a lot of people out there who would like the option of a CD player  Show details

Not so impressed – Bought brand new Captiva Active, the car has amazing value, 7 seater under 30k with leather seat and even sunroof. The driving experience is expected from a 2.4L engine which is a little sluggish yet thirsty, especially when trying to overtake. The ride is rough, even on the sealed road, once my friend told me it drives like a truck.  Show details

GPS update – I have a 2012 Hold Captiva which I bought second hand and since found that it had been in a smash and was not happy as a result the holden dealer offered to upgrade the sat nav and also install new passenger door handle that broke. Door handle repaired but have been informed that they cannot update the sat nav as there is none. is this correct  Show details

Great Car – Great Car, Suitable For family. Affordable. Very pleased with price, capacity, Fuctionality. Not quiet fuel efficient though. However it is great on the long distance driving. Customer service staffs at Phoenix holder were very good. Explained every possible feature and also assisted to fit the car into the budget as well.  Show details

Great car – The car was listed as at promotional pricing so we decided to go new rather than buy used. Very pleased with the purchase. We have had the car for 6 months and are very pleased with the performance and comfort. Only minor repair made during 1000 km check up. Good economy. Have owned Holdens in the past and am as pleased with this as with previous cars. Dealer very helpful - whole transaction through the web  Show details

I love my new car – I love this car it has everything I was looking for without the expensive price tag . Leather seats . 7 seater . Reverse camera . Sun roof and much more. It drives well I always have the eco button on. It's just the right size for my family. I can't fault this car  Show details

BEWARE – Speak to anyone in the car industry (except holden) and they will tell you what the nick name is for these CRAPTIVA Horribly underpowered and so riddled with faults i cant even begin to name them all I worked at a panel shop for a year and the panel beaters were quick to show me the cheap nasty design faults that each and every model has. Add to that holdens horrible back up service with warranties and your just begging for it..  Show details

Really Happy with our 2016 Captiva Active – We are really happy with the drive and amount of room in the Captiva Active (2016). I can easily fit two car seats and an adult in the back. Boot space is great and makes life with two kids so much easier. Petrol consumption isn't brilliant but isn't bad either. Average 11km per 100L. Love the Apple Car Play  Show details

So far so good – We bought our 2015 Captiva active brand new in December last year. Now keeping in mind it's still relatively new it's been great for its value. With a trade in of Toyota Camry we picked it up for $24000. Alot of this review is based on value for money which I feel is great. The car drives smoother than the Camry. Being a front wheel drive the… Read more

Camry you could feel every bump in the road through the wheel. The Captiva is really smooth. The fuel efficiency is not as advertised but still it's acceptable and around the same as the Camry both being 2.4l we left home on a holiday 380kms and it used half a tank fully loaded, my brothers new Mitsubishi asx was slightly better but it's smaller than the Captiva. The aircon works great! I believe it was an issue in previous models but one day we drove around 80kms in 42 degree heat last summer and it was fine even in the back where there isn't any vents. Our Captiva with the 2.4l petrol is slightly underpowered but not enough to become a problem. I feel hesitant to put my foot into it cos they like to rev really hard. The reason to this date I rate it 4 out of 5 is the one downside and that is the centre console vibrates and annoys the crap out of me. But hey for $24k and a 100000km old 06 Camry we walked away with a new 7 seater car, leather interior, sunroof, fog lights and bigger alloys I couldn't be happier at present. We also have free servicing till 2020 as part of the deal and that's why I chose to ignore the bad reviews here. I doubt I'll have it in 5 years as I am a mad Toyota man and if I had the money I would've went to Toyota. Guess that comes back to value for money and affordablity for young families.

Captiva LS active – Bought a new captiva active a while a go, so far so good, reliable. I trade in my commodore with captiva so I can feel that the only issue that I have is the firm suspension, other than that all great, worth for the price and 2.4L engine is sufficient.  Show details

It's better than nothing, I guess – We purchased a 2015 Captiva LS ACTIVE MY15 2.4L last month. We were told that the fuel consumption compared to the diesel car isn't much difference but it's an alcoholic on fuel, but that's car dealers for you. It lacks power with high and loud revs. We're stuck with it for 6 years but happy that it's got 6 years warranty and 6 years roadside… Read more

assistance. I'm grateful because it's better than having nothing. I'll update it at a later stage if anything else happens.
