![]() However, the Equinox does offer relatively low pricing through its range, and with many features only available as optional, those looking for a more basic compact SUV that still includes a sufficient list of amenities can save some coin at the dealership. Several other models also offer more creature comforts and active driver safety features as standard. For instance, the Nissan Rogue and Toyota RAV4 hold about seven more cubic-feet of cargo space while the Tucson and CR-V hold nearly 10 more cubes than the Chevy. Some of the Equinox’s rivals also offer more cargo space. The top-trim, Premier, includes ambient cabin lighting, a wireless charging pad, heated steering wheel, leather upholstery, driver’s seat memory setting and other features.Īgainst its rivals, the Chevy offers a lackluster powertrain - it’s 175 horsepower is far more than the 152-hp in the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross, but otherwise, most models have 185 to 205 horsepower and either a CVT or more gears. Optional for the RS trim is the RS Leather Package which replaces the cloth seats with leather upholstery and includes a seven-speaker Bose sound system. The base LS model is fairly bare-bones, so those wanting a more upmarket presentation can consider the LT trim with a power-adjustable driver’s seat and “enhanced” multi-color driver information display, while the RS adds dual-zone climate control, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, remote engine start, and other features, including red interior stitching. Interior materials lack some of the upscale feels of rivals with harder plastics, but they are bound to be fairly durable. Apple CarPlay and Android are standard with additional connectivity through a standard 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, USB ports, and an auxiliary port. The base Equinox includes a 7.0-inch touchscreen while all other trims receive an eight-inch touchscreen operating Chevrolet’s MyLink interface, which is crisply colored, intuitive to use, and quick to respond to inputs. ![]()
