In the latest edition(Feb 2013) of Practical Caravan they have a report on the Chevvy Captiva 2.2VCDi, manual
Kerbweight given as 1878kgs Towing limit 2000kgs, NW 80kgs. They have had the car for 6 months and covered 15,000 miles in it, 4000 of which were towing all over the UK and Europe. Av MPG whilst towing a fully loaded 2009 Sprite Major 6 which gave a 76% match (1430 kgs approx) was 23.1
The conclusion was that the Capiva is a great tow car, but has no spare wheel, regularly obtain 40mpg solo.Also tester commented that it is more impressive as a tow car than being driven solo.
A reader with an auto Captiva reported that driven solo MPG was only around 25, no figures given for towing with an auto
Hopes this helps.
