Chevrolet Orlando. Reviews

The name of the city, which is located in Florida, our motorists are quite familiar. On our roads for some time with success running Chevrolet Orlando. Reviews about him for all the time were very good. Let's try to figure out how good it is for our roads.

According to some users, the Chevrolet Orlando car is a crossover. But in fact, this is completely wrong. Firstly, it is very angular, and secondly, it's too hard to look on the road. Maybe it has a pseudo-road kit and wheel arch extensions, maybe it has wheels of 17 sizes, but this car did not absorb the most important qualities from an SUV. No impressive ride height, no development for the transmission - nothing has been done to get closer to the SUV. This is an ordinary family van. And the main advantage of Chevrolet Orlando, the owners' reviews say, is 7 seats inside the salon.

Of the main advantages also should be noted the practicality and comfort of Chevrolet Orlando. The drivers' comments indicate that manufacturers have worked rather well over the elements of convenience. The driver's seat is adjustable in various planes, the steering column is adjustable, and even the armrest for the driver is very comfortable. Under this very armrest is a glove box, which is covered with curtains. There are also two cupholders. It's worth mentioning also about the secret box, in which there is such a necessary USB-connector, SD-input in order to download new versions of navigation maps. The box is also great for putting a phone in it while charging. In principle, this is everyone's business. The sound of music from the speakers also allows you to listen to music in Chevrolet Orlando perfectly. The characteristics of the car for this class are not bad. Devices such as the iPhone, iPod or iPad are synchronized with the on-board system quite well.

Suspension Chevrolet Orlando, the reviews say, is designed for a loaded car, and therefore in this condition it rides gently. If to go in the empty car, it becomes not so comfortable, therefore as the suspension bracket in this case is harsh. Speeches about some American imposing, wooliness or unsteadiness does not go at all. The dimensions of the car are small, but the radius of rotation is quite large.

The Orlando automatic transmission is 6-speed, and the switching is quite noticeable. The car is not very agile, even 140 horses do not allow quick acceleration and make triple overtaking.

The basic equipment of the car is equipped with 16-inch wheels, fabric upholstery, ABS, CD player, power windows for the front doors, immobilizer, as well as crankcase protection.

Complete set LT is supplemented by window lifts on back doors, the leather rudder, operated radio tape recorder, anticreeping system, 6 pillows of safety, ESP. Cost this pleasure will be 40 thousand more.

Next comes the LT + package, which is fitted with 16-inch wheels, climate control, Bluetooth, and a USB receiver.

The final version of the LTZ is equipped with 17-inch wheels, cruise control, folding rear-view mirrors, backlit central console, rain sensor, rear parking sensor, automatic light on. Those who want a leather salon, will have to fork out for 40 thousand rubles, and for navigation 20 thousand.

For family people who can not afford VW Tuareg, Chevrolet Orlando is the best choice. Reviews say that your car is working off your money in full. Good driving performance with a filled cabin, a lot of additional options, affordable price - all these are the main advantages of the van rather than the crossover to which this car is attributed.
