Overview
- GM officially introduced the China‑built Captiva PHEV in Cariló, returning the nameplate to Argentina in a single Premier trim now on sale, with about 100 units previously reserved during the October presale.
- The plug‑in system pairs a 1.5‑liter petrol engine with a 20.5 kWh LFP battery for a combined 204 CV and 310 Nm, with manufacturer‑declared range of roughly 90 km in EV mode and over 1,000 km total.
- Launch pricing is set at ARS 52,740,900, with financing that includes 0% interest for up to ARS 18,000,000 over 12 months and additional plans of 18, 24 and 30 months at published rates.
- The SUV enters under an import‑tariff exemption reported to apply to qualifying electrified models below a US$16,000 FOB threshold, a policy that benefits its market positioning.
- Standard equipment includes six airbags, 360° camera and active safety assists such as autonomous emergency braking, adaptive cruise control and lane‑keeping, plus a 3‑year/100,000 km vehicle warranty and an 8‑year/160,000 km battery warranty.
