The Chevrolet Equinox has carved a niche for itself in the competitive crossover segment since its introduction. Known for its blend of style, comfort, and practicality, it has become a go-to choice for families and individuals that want a versatile and reliable vehicle. The new model further builds on this reputation with a range of exciting features that make it stand out from its predecessors and competitors.
The new Chevrolet Equinox introduces several noteworthy enhancements that amp up its appeal. A notable addition is the Driver Confidence II package, available on the LT, RS, and Premier trims. It includes advanced safety technologies like blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert.
The new model also adds more color options, including Riptide Blue Metallic and Lakeshore Blue Metallic. This means you can now personalize your ride in Dover much more to reflect your unique style.
The new Chevrolet Equinox boasts a bold black front grille, stylish LED headlights with daytime running lights, up to 19-inch wheels, and six exterior colors. It also has sculpted lines and smooth curves that not only enhance the vehicle's aesthetics but also contribute to improved fuel efficiency.
Functionality was a major player in Equinox's design. The compact yet spacious layout ensures easy maneuverability in traffic and tight parking spots while simultaneously providing ample interior space for passengers and cargo. The addition of roof rails was strategic to allow you to carry extra luggage or gear for your outdoor adventures.
The Equinox's cabin is a perfect blend of comfort, style, and functionality. High-quality materials, including soft-touch surfaces and ergonomic seating, create a welcoming environment for both drivers and passengers. The spacious cabin, equipped with numerous cupholders and storage compartments, is ideal for long journeys.
You'll find a moonroof, power adjustable seats with lumbar support, dual-zone climate control, and heated front seats, depending on the trim. If you fold the rear seats flat, you can expand the already generous cargo space from 29.9 cubic feet to an impressive 63.9 cubic feet for your larger items.
The Equinox has a minimalistic design but with all the necessary features to enhance your driving experience. The standard infotainment screen is seven inches, but you can upgrade to a larger 8-inch touchscreen display on the LT trim and above. Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, and audio streaming services are available on all models. You can choose to add a built-in 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, a charging pad, and a Bose premium audio system to your setup.
For enhanced convenience, the Equinox includes keyless entry and push-button start, a rearview camera, and the Teen Driver System. This system allows you to set limits, including a speed alert and audio volume limit, for young or inexperienced drivers.
Under the hood, the new Chevrolet Equinox boasts a turbocharged 1.5L four-cylinder engine that delivers 175 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and 203 lb-ft of torque between 2,000 and 4,000 rpm. This engine is coupled with a continuously variable transmission for front-wheel drive models or an eight-speed automatic transmission for all-wheel drive versions. The EPA-estimated fuel economy for Chevy Equinox is 24 mpg in the city and 30 mpg on highways. You'll be able to tow 1,500 pounds with this engine. That's enough for a small trailer, boat, or a couple of ATVs for your weekend adventures.
Safety remains a top priority for Chevrolet, and the new Equinox reflects this commitment with advanced tech, such as adaptive cruise control with a lane-centering feature and stability control. Other optional features include a 360-degree camera system that provides a comprehensive view of the vehicle, rear pedestrian detection to alert drivers of people behind the car, and traffic sign recognition that helps identify and display important road signs.
For security, there's an advanced alarm system, an ignition disable device to prevent unauthorized vehicle use, glass breakage sensors to detect any attempts at forced entry, and interior movement detectors to monitor any unusual activity inside the vehicle. You can also add custom safety features depending on the convenience package you choose for your unique trim.
The base model of the new Chevy Equinox is the LS. It comfortably seats five and comes with essential tech like a multi-color driver info display, touchscreen infotainment screen, in-vehicle Wi-Fi hotspot, and satellite radio. This trim would be a prefect fit for you if you are looking for a dependable vehicle without breaking the bank.
Upgrading to the LT trim brings a host of enhancements, including illuminated sun visors, folding rear seats, and the optional convenience package. This package offers heated seats, a larger infotainment screen, dual-zone climate control, and front and rear parking sensors.
The LT model will appeal to you if you appreciate extra amenities without stepping up to the highest price points. It is highly customizable, hence offering a great balance between features and price.
If you are seeking a sportier look and feel, the RS trim delivers on all fronts. It has bigger 19-inch wheels, a black interior with red contrast stitching, a unique shift knob, and all the LT's standard equipment and its Confidence and Convenience package.
At the top of the range, the Premier trim epitomizes luxury and sophistication. It features heated and cooled leather seating, a wireless charging pad, ambient cabin lighting, and more advanced safety features. This model speaks to buyers who appreciate the finer things in life and desire a vehicle that reflects their taste.
