Second-Hand Chevrolet Orlando
Used Chevrolet Orlando
Value American brands like Chevrolet have something of a mixed reputation in the UK. They’re cheap and cheerful, though sometimes this isn’t always a good thing. However, the Chevrolet Orlando is a seven-seat MPV that comes from a different lineage altogether. This car was designed specifically for the European market. This is a serious contender in the tough mini-MPV market where it is taking on the likes of the Ford C-Max, Vauxhall Zafira and Citroen Xsara Picasso. It’s versatile and should withstand whatever your family has to throw at it.
What You Get
Most of the used Chevrolet Orlando's competition cost a lot more than what it does, so if you’re on a budget then this is a great choice. It’s a large car that has plenty of headroom and legroom. The seating is arranged in what Chevrolet call 'theatre configuration', which just means that the rear seats are somewhat higher, giving the rear occupants a better view out of the front of the car. The seven seats feature some 30 configurations and fold flat to give a huge useable load space. Other little touches like plenty of storage compartments and a second rear view mirror helps to make it a fantastic family car all round.
How it Drives
The Chevrolet Orlando feels well built and planted on the road. Performance is not a huge factor when buying a car like this and few people are going to be throwing the Orlando into the bends with any gusto, but it is a competent performer with little body roll for such a tall car. The driving position is good with plenty of opportunities to get comfortable with height adjustable seat and reach and rake adjustable steering column. With its distinctive, chunky styling reminiscent of an SUV or 4x4, decent performance and superior build quality, a used Chevrolet Orlando makes a very good alternative to the more usual mini-MPVs.
