Chevrolet Equinox 2 Crossover (2009-2017)
Product Gallery
Product Overview
Chevrolet Equinox Mk2 is an affordable mid-size crossover in production from 2009 to 2017. It was available with a range of inline-4 and V6 engines that displaced 2.4 to 3.6 liters.
Compare to Mk1, the Mk2 Equinox has much more tolerable exterior styling. GM introduced an Ecotec I4 engine slotted below the two V6s, which is hardly controversial seeing that the vehicle is an eco-box.
Those who drive offroad, for work or leisure, need to think twice before pulling the trigger: the Chevrolet Equinox is hardly the "offroader" that Chevrolet would like you to think.
