It’s the perfect size for a family of five, and it has all the bells and whistles you could want in a vehicle. You’ll love the way it looks, drives, and handles.
Engine Specs
The Chevy Equinox comes standard with a 1.5L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that produces 170 horsepower and 203 lb-ft of torque. It’s mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission. Direct-Injection and Variable Valve Timing (VVT) help the 1.5L turbo engine deliver impressive performance and fuel efficiency. The EPA-estimated fuel economy for the 1.5L turbo engine is 25 city/30 highway mpg.
Interior Specs
Start your Equinox with a Keyless Start/Stop button and grab its leather-wrapped steering wheel and start your adventure. You’ll appreciate the standard 8″ diagonal HD color touchscreen and the heated driver and passenger seats as you back out of your driveway and head down the street. The Equinox comes with a 6-speaker audio system, but you can upgrade to an 8-speaker Bose premium audio system. The power-adjustable front passenger seat lets you find your perfect position as you drive.
The Chevy Equinox comes standard with a 60/40 split-folding rear seat, so you can easily store your gear. You don’t have to worry about noise in the cabin, thanks to Active Noise Cancellation. The available Wi-Fi® hotspot gives you a fast and reliable connection. Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility lets you use your smartphone’s features, such as maps and music, on the touchscreen.
Safety Specs
Chevy Safety Assist is one of the most extensive standard safety suites in its class. It includes Front Pedestrian Braking, Forward Collision Alert, Following Distance Indicator, IntelliBeam® headlamps, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, and Automatic Emergency Braking. The standard Rear Cross Traffic Alert helps you see and avoid vehicles when you’re backing up. The Airbag system is well-thought-out and includes frontal airbags, seat-mounted side-impact airbags for the driver and front passenger, and head-curtain airbags for all rows.
The Chevy Equinox is built on a strong foundation with high-strength steel that helps it withstand the impact of a collision. The available Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert uses sensors to watch for vehicles in your blind spot. If a vehicle is detected, you’ll see an alert on the side mirror. The Theft-deterrent unauthorized entry system helps prevent break-ins. You’ll rest easy knowing that your 2022 Chevrolet Equinox RS has you covered.
