2025 Chevrolet Equinox

Chevrolet sells a wide range of sedans, coupes, compact SUVs, large SUVs, EVs, and pickup trucks. Most models have roomy interiors and come with standard safety and convenience technology. Several models, however, have poor visibility and lack steering agility. Many Chevrolets rank average or below average for reliability in CR’s rankings. The brand stands out for selling historically significant and category-defining vehicles. The Suburban and Tahoe can keep three rows of passengers comfortable within their enormous cabins. The Silverado pickup truck competes with the best-selling Ford F-150 and Ram 1500 by balancing interior comfort with towing and cargo capability. In the past and today, the Camaro and Corvette are performance car bargains. The rear/mid-engined “C8” Corvette can be as thrilling as much more expensive European supercars. With some exceptions, used Chevrolets can have reliability issues, but are often less expensive to maintain and repair than competitors.

Redesigned for 2025, the Chevrolet Equinox is similar in size and mechanical details to the SUV it supplants. It is again powered by a 175-hp, 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, but this time it is paired with either a CVT (FWD) or 8-speed automatic transmission (AWD). The Equinox is offered in three trims: LT, RS, and ACTIV, each with their own styling touches. The RS is positioned as the sporty-looking choice, and the ACTIV is dressed for adventure. All share an interior that houses twin 11-inch screens and boasts standard niceties like heated seats and steering wheel. The Equinox features standard Chevy Safety Assist, a bundle of active safety and driver assistance features that includes AEB with pedestrian detection, BSW, and RCTW.
