Chevrolet Orlando, a competitor to the Citroen C4 Picasso

Autovisie is always looking for used cars of interest and therefore searches the sales site listings Gaspedaal.nl Through. This time we found a Chevrolet Orlando.

Chevrolet Orlando has been on the market since 2010, but it was not successful in our country. The MPV had strong competition in Europe from, for example, the Citroën Grand C4 Picasso.

Chevrolet Orlando vs Citroen Grand C4 Picasso

Autovisie pitted the American and the Frenchman against each other in 2016. “Chevrolet believes the Orlando has a good stake in the battle for the best seven-seat family car. It can prove itself against the old MPV.

“It’s time to settle the MPV dispute between France and America once and for all. The Korean-American camp sends the Chevrolet Orlando 1.8 LTZ to the negotiating table, which has almost every piece of ammunition possible at a price of 27,495 euros. The money of extras would be paid only for leather upholstery, heated seats and 18-inch wheels.

“From the corner of France, the Citroën Grand C4 Picasso 1.6 VTi Ligne Business costing 28,560 euros is placed in front, which has almost the same equipment and motorization at an additional cost of about 1000 euros. Seven seats, automatic air conditioning and a navigation system are included in both cars for this money, as well as a five-speed manual box and a desirable four-cylinder with 120 hp or more.

Chevrolet Orlando has an attractive appearance

“Orlando is definitely more interesting in the moments before the actual fight. It surprises with its good looks and proves that it has not lost sight of its American roots, despite the fact that it was GM’s Korean division that introduced this model.

Internal affairs

“The interior of the Chevrolet Orlando looks very nice in the photos, but in reality the equipment is very difficult. Everything is in the right place. Beautiful 17-inch alloy wheels are standard equipment on the LTZ. Maybe that’s why this luxury transporter was called a car of the best business of 2011. Importantly, the interior is what an MPV like this is all about. It’s not so much the design, but the interior space, ergonomics and resistance to the irrepressible urge to destroy children that are important.

“In that case, Citroën’s design team has some work to do, because they have clearly chosen to put ‘form before function’ on the priority list.”

“However, in terms of interior space, the Chevrolet Orlando actually does not exceed 7 points, while the Citroën exceeds it with a worthy 8.5. And although the back seat often provides more comfort compared to different folding seats, Chevrolet does not know how to use that advantage .

“The bench is hard and flat, so when it is folded it makes way for a flat loading floor, which, however, is very high in the car, making the total cargo space disappointing. Hard and flat are also terms used when evaluating materials for which the dashboard is built.

Orlando is a beautiful, practical MPV, which is also quite unique. That makes it a fun and special event.
