2023 Chevrolet Equinox

The 2023 Chevrolet Equinox is available in four trims: LS, LT, RS, and Premier, with prices ranging from $27,995 to $33,195.

The 2023 Equinox is fitted with a 1.5-liter four-cylinder turbocharged engine and a six-speed automatic. The engine puts out peak values of 175 horsepower and 203 pound-feet of torque and power is routed to the front wheels or an all-wheel drive system that is available for $1,600.

The standard drivetrain returns an EPA-estimated 28 miles per gallon combined while the all-wheel-drive system costs the Equinox two MPG points. Those ratings are not very competitive against the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4 - both of which furthermore offer hybrid (and plug-in) powertrains. Chevrolet will offer the all-new Equinox EV for the 2024 model year.

The five-passenger Equinox stretches to 183 inches long which is just a couple more than Ford Escape, and, at 72.6 inches, is only about 1.5 inches narrower, and on par with the rest of the class. Rear space is also even with the rest of the segment (40 inches of legroom and nearly 39 inches of headroom) while cargo room (30 cubic feet) is at the lower end. With the second row folded, the cargo volume expands to 64 cubic feet.

Towing capacity is set at 1,500 pounds.

The base model features automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, a following-distance indicator, lane keep assist, and automatic headlights. Blind spot detection with rear cross-traffic alert is offered for $395 and adaptive cruise control is offered on the LT, RS, and Premier trims.

Most trims are equipped with a seven-inch infotainment touchscreen system, wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, six speakers, two USB ports up front with two more located on the back of the center console, SiriusXM, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and remote connectivity. An eight-inch infotainment touchscreen, a 120-volt power outlet, and additional USB ports are standard on the top trim while a seven-speaker Bose sound system and navigation are optional on the LT, RS, and Premier trims.

The base trim features 17-inch aluminum wheels, heated mirrors, LED headlights, a 3.5-inch white and black driver information display, a four-way adjustable driver’s seat, and proximity entry. The Sport Edition is $595 and dresses the LS trim with black emblems, grille inserts and surround, and 18-inch wheels.

The Convenience Package is available for $785 and includes an eight-way power driver’s seat, tinted rear windows, and a 4.2-inch color driver information display.
