Building on a solid heritage of generosity and power, the 2006 Caprice brings new levels of convenience to Middle Eastern drivers and passengers.

"Generosity has always been at the heart of Caprice, which is why it has developed such a strong affinity in the Middle East," said Chris Probert, Marketing Manager - Chevrolet Large Cars. "The 2006 Caprice offers generous space and comfort, with standard power adjustable front seats, and unparalleled leg room in the rear."

Parking has never been simpler with the intelligent Rear Park Assist technology as standard on LTZ, SS and Royale models. Rear Park Assist uses sensors in the rear fascia to measure the distance and guide the driver, via audio signals, into and out of tight parking spots.

The state-of-the-art 3.6L Alloytec V6 powertrain (optional on LS and LTZ models) brings Middle East drivers fuel economy and refinement at an affordable price. The technically advanced aluminium alloy block and cylinder heads in the Alloytec V6 create a lighter engine and, in turn, an excellent balance between fuel economy and performance. The 230hp V6 is coupled to an accomplished 4-speed automatic transmission that has selectable power and economy modes.
