Chevrolet recently announced the arrival of the new 2024 Captiva in the Middle East. Following the regional success of the reinvented 2021 edition, Chevrolet has made further improvements to the 2024 Captiva model.

It’s a decent-looking compact crossover, but it wasn’t until later that it’s really a rebadged MG Hector after a reader alerted us.
There is a massive recall underway for several General Motors models in the UAE, including the Chevrolet Aveo, Captiva, Epica, Optra and GMC Terrain, between model-years 2007 and 2010. It was quietly announced by the UAE’s Ministry of Economy in an Arabic statement, which is why it flew under the radar.

General Motors Middle East has announced that they will be revealed three new 4×4 models at the 2010 Abu Dhabi Motor Show, namely the 2011 GMC Acadia Denali trim package, the all-new 2011 GMC Terrain, and the facelifted 2011 Chevrolet Captiva.
A facelifted version of the current Chevrolet Captiva will be launched at the upcoming 2010 Paris Auto Show, but General Motors has released early information on the new model that will debut as a 2011 or a 2012 model, depending on market.

Fahrmitgas.de, a German tuning firm named after its own website, is celebrating the 40th anniversary of the first moon landing on July 20, 1969. While their motto for their celebratory project is “drive me to the moon,” their choice of vehicle is rather underwhelming. So it their spaceman mascot.
