8 Reasons to Test Drive the 2024 Chevy Equinox

1. 1.5L Turbo 4-Cylinder Engine

A 1.5L Turbo engine powers the Chevy Equinox alongside a 6-speed automatic transmission. This combination supplies 175 horsepower and 203 lb.-ft. of torque, helping your Equinox take on almost any adventure.

2. Chevy Safety Assist

Chevy Safety Assist is an advanced safety package that can prevent common causes of accidents. The Chevy Safety Assist package uses assistive driving functions like Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, which uses a gentle turn of the steering wheel to keep your Equinox centered when it detects you unintentionally veering into another lane. Other functions in the Chevy Safety Assist package include Forward Collision Alert and Automatic Emergency Braking.

3. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

Pairing your smartphone with your Equinox creates a more personalized experience, allowing you to call friends and family from behind the wheel or listen to your favorite music playlists. The 2024 Equinox comes with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto: two smartphone integration features that sync your phone to your Equinox in a matter of seconds!

4. Acoustic Laminated Windshield

The new Equinox has an acoustic laminated windshield that dampens loud thunder, honking car horns, and other disruptive noises from outside your vehicle. This allows you to have a more relaxing ride and enjoy conversations with your passengers without interruption.

5. 8-Way Power Seating

The LT and all higher Equinox trims come with an 8-way power driver seat for optimal comfort. ​Settings for this seat include Forward/Back, Up/Down, ​forward and backward recline, and 2-way power lumbar support.

6. Hands-Free Gesture Liftgate

The Chevy Equinox’s highest trim, the Premier, comes with a Hands-Free Gesture liftgate that makes it easier to load and unload cargo. When your hands are full, simply swipe your foot under the rear bumper ​and the liftgate will automatically open!

7. Rear Seat Reminder

Rear Seat Reminder is a safety feature that protects your most vulnerable passengers by preventing them from being left behind in the vehicle. When you go to exit your Equinox, Rear Seat Reminder issues an audio and visual alert to check your back seat for children or pets.

8. Teen Driver

Teen Driver ​is a great tool for parents who need to monitor their child’s driving. Teen Driver creates an in-cabin report card detailing your teen’s behaviors behind the wheel and alerting you to dangerous habits before an accident occurs.
