The Chevrolet Orlando took centre stage at the Chevrolet stand at the 2008 Paris Auto Show, next to the Chevrolet Cruze sedan. The vehicle is a 7 seater part SUV, part MPV. This could probably change the shape of the MPVs produced in the near future. It has a fashionable squared-off styling and versatile cabin. The Chevrolet Orlando can easily accommodate seven adults in 3 rows of seats. This can be transformed quickly into a flat load-carrying area. The vehicle has a sloping center stack with a high-mounted gear lever, brushed metal-effect trim and blue-backlit instruments. The Chevrolet Orlando was designed by GM Holden in Australia. The vehicle has a double-deck grille and prominent bow-tie logo, with an octagonal windscreen and concave bonnet. The Chevrolet Orlando will replace the Tacoma Compact MPV. It was announced that this vehicle will go into production at the 2009 Detroit Auto Show. I don’t think that there are plans to sell the Chevrolet Orlando in South Africa (my home country), but I could be wrong. Guess I’ll have to look around in the classifieds for a similar vehicle, which might be hard to find since this vehicle seems to be in a class of its own.
