Chevrolet Equinox 3 Crossover (2017)
Product Gallery
Product Overview
Chevrolet Equinox Mk3 is an affordable compact crossover in production from 2017. It is available with a range of inline-4 engines that displaced 1.5 to 2.0 liters.
Another basic, ugly crossover from GM, the Equinox is uninspiring and impractical. Those who drive offroad, for work or leisure, need to think twice before pulling the trigger: the Chevrolet Equinox III is hardly the "offroader" that Chevrolet would like you to think.

Reviewer score 56%T's nine-speed automatic transmission goes about its business without any harsh gear changes. The Equinox doesn't skimp on driver's aids, as long as you're willing to pay for them. Cargo capacity is adequate, with 29.9 cubic feet of space behind the back seats.
