Chevrolet Orlando: Paris Debut for 7-Seat Minivan Based on the Cruze

Chevrolet Orlando Minivan Paris ShowMore of a pre-production model than a concept, the Orlando previews Chevy’s forthcoming entry in the European compact minivan segment where it will compete against cars like the Opel Zafira, Renault Scenic and the VW Touran. Based on the recently announced Cruze compact sedan, the Orlando show car carries Chevy’s signature design language with elements like the large split grille and the profiled shoulder line.

Sitting on a 2,760mm wheelbase, the five-door Orlando can accommodate seven occupants in three rows of seats that can be adapted to the driver’s needs, allowing the transformation of the cabin into a large cargo area. The most notable design feature of the interior is what appears to be a Camaro inspired instrument panel. -Continued
