The Chevrolet Orlando
Co-existence of form and function

WELCOME the all-new Chevrolet Orlando: a vehicle with the aesthetics fo an SUV, the convenient size of a crossover and the three-row, seven-passenger capacity of a multi-purpose vehicle

"We are very excited with the entry of the Chevrolet Orlando in our vehicle line-up. With its sleek design and advanced features, we believe the Orlando is in a class of its own as it stands apart from the regular multi-purpose vehicle standards.

The vehicle is designed to provide practivality, comfort and convenience not only its driver but to its passengers as well. It is evidence that form and function can co-exist. There is no other model in the market that can claim that it has the functionality of an MPV, the design elements and comfort of an SUV with the price of an AUV," says Atty. Albert Arcilla, president and managing director of Chevrolet Philippines.

Indeed, the Orlando not only brings great value for money to modern families on the move, but also brings something fresh to the local market.

The product name "Orlando" converys the family-oriented character of the the vehicle by creating a connection to a popular family destination in Florida USA.

All the little details that go into making each Chevrolet special are found in this vehicle. A peek under the hood showcases a 1.8L DOHC ECOTEC DCVVT engine that is designed for optimum fuel-efficiency. The Orlando is capable of producing a maximum of 104kw at 6200 rpm of power and 176 Nm at 3800 rpm of torque. The Orlando also has a 6-speed automatic transmission with the "tiptronic" feature that provides better shifting control and gas mileage.

Fulfilling its promise of being the perfect family vehicle, the Orlando spares no detail in providing the following safety and security features in its arsenal.  For families with small children, the Orlando has the Child IsoFix restraint system, child-proof locks on rear doors and Seat Belt Warning Indicator in place as a guarantee that safety comes first even before your drive has begun.  And while on the road, features like the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Electronic Stability Control (ESC) help give a worry-free journey.  Furthermore, the Orlando is equipped with driver and passenger side airbags and Crash Sensor Technology that reinforces the safety of the driver and passenger in case of vehicle collision.

This 7-seater of comfort and interior flexibility bears a striking crossover design.  Its exterior is designed with a split radiator grille with chrome bar, roof rail, Manual Rear Liftgate, side turn signal lamps, power fold side mirrors, front and rear fog lamps, and 16-inch aluminum wheels to sum up an undeniably incredible ride.

Inside the Orlando, it’s all about versatility.  Whether you plan to drop-off  children at school or pick up furniture at your favorite store, the Orlando can adjust to either of your preferences with ease. The second row is capable of 60:40 folding while the third row seats can be folded individually to give the user maximum space flexibility. With the Split Folding Seating option, you can easily reconfigure the seats to accommodate large cargo, allowing you to go from family outings to everyday errands with no trouble at all.

When family comfort is foremost, the Orlando doesn’t disappoint with its overall trim and dashboard paint inserts.  Its indoor coziness is even more enhanced with a climate control system and an entertainment system that includes an advanced “infotainment” display.  The audio system has RD Radio, CD player with MP3 compatibility, auxiliary input and iPod connectivity through USB port. The Orlando has a total of 6 speakers for an optimum sound experience.

The convenience that comes with owning a Chevrolet doesn’t stop there.  The Orlando provides more perks like cruise control, power operated windows, rain sensitive wipers, automatic headlamp, and a tire repair kit for families that are becoming ever more “do-it-yourself” in their daily affairs.

Chevrolet’s all-new compact MPV is certainly the perfect choice for a growing Filipino family.  The Chevrolet Orlando is set to be sold at a standard retail price of P1,188,888.00.
