The Chevrolet Captiva is currently made in South Korea and imported into China, despite its imported status the Captiva is priced very competitively at 240,000rmb and rising, the latest facelift version has just been introduced into China and will no doubt prove to be a hit. However, Shanghai-GM are planning to move Captiva production into China in the next few months, the below spy shots clearly show that the new Captiva is sporting Shanghai-GM on the rear end. Chinese media were reporting several months ago that when the Captiva reaches the end of its life in the next few years the platform will be turned over to Baojun on which to develop the first Baojun SUV.
