Purpose-Built For Your Life

You have a long list of expectations for your next vehicle – and it served as the to-do list for Chevrolet's designers and engineers. The main principle that guided the development of the all-new 2012 Orlando was efficiency. There's an incredible efficiency of space that allows for three rows of seating in a vehicle its size. And the engine offers a combination of extraordinary fuel efficiency with stellar performance. Add to that a wealth of the latest safety and connectivity features and you have a vehicle built to answer your specifications.

The Optimizer

The accepted wisdom used to be that you had to trade off performance for gains in fuel efficiency. Orlando's 174 hp 2.4L ECOTEC® dual overhead cam 4-cylinder engine proves how the ingenuity of Chevrolet's engineers can fundamentally alter that equation. By incorporating advanced fuel-saving technologies like Direct Injection and Variable Valve Timing (VVT), the engine optimizes both output and fuel efficiency. A choice of 6-speed manual or automatic transmissions further enhances the efficiency. The engine was named to the prestigious list of Ward's 10 Best Engines.

Loads Of Space

You have the people. You have the stuff. Orlando comfortably accommodates both. With standard seating for up to seven, you can bring both family and friends. With split-folding second and third-row seats, you can easily reconfigure the interior to prioritize passenger or cargo-carrying capacity. And the wide-opening rear doors allow for easy access to the second and third rows. There are also a series of storage compartments that add to the versatility, including one located behind the radio on the instrument panel. Another example of Orlando's ingenuity.

In Style, In Touch

Orlando is as stylish as it is functional. The tone is set by the sporty dual-cockpit design, enhanced by the ambient blue instrument panel lighting. A closer look reveals high-quality finishes and tight-fitting trim panels. Entertainment is provided by the standard CD player, MP3 playback and an auxiliary audio input jack. To help you stay in touch while on the road, 2LT and LTZ models feature Bluetooth® connectivity plus the security of OnStar® including six months of the Directions and Connections Plan with Turn-By-Turn Navigation. You can even keep track of the little ones in the rear seats with the handy child-view mirror on top of the interior rear-view mirror.

Take Control

Handling the uncertainties of daily life is your responsibility. Helping you handle the uncertainties of daily driving is Orlando's. A series of advanced driver control technologies are standard, including ABS, traction control and StabiliTrak®. Electronic stability control systems like StabiliTrak® have proven to reduce the risk of a fatal single-vehicle crash by a remarkable 63 percent.** Add to that the occupant protection of six standard air bags and reinforced safety cage construction. And OnStar® 's Automatic Crash Response. For even greater peace of mind.
