2021 Chevrolet Equinox Reviews: Performance

After taking the Equinox for a road test, reviewers at Car and Driver were pleased with its sharp handling in traffic. That’s exactly what you need if you do most of your driving in downtown Winchester: “Agreeable and easy to drive, the Equinox handles competently, and its steering is accurate and direct.” As for performance, US News & World Report reviewers were impressed by the available 2.0L engine, which offers “[a] horsepower rating [that is] one of the highest in the class, bested only by a couple of Jeep models.”

2021 Chevrolet Equinox Reviews: Safety

Looking for an SUV that’s as safe as it is capable? Like many drivers across London, you depend on the latest driver-assistive technology to help you see and sense more on the road. Even at the base trim the Equinox is well-stocked with advanced systems that monitor road conditions, tire traction, and surrounding vehicles. The Equinox earned an overall 5-star crash test rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, and similarly impressive ratings of “Good” and “Superior” for crash tests and accident avoidance from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Experts at Kelley Blue Book note in their Chevy Equinox review that while many SUVs offer advanced safety systems, the Equinox has everything you’d expect from a top competitor: “Now included are automatic emergency braking, forward-collision alert, lane-departure warning, and lane-keeping assist, plus IntelliBeam automatic headlights.”

2021 Chevrolet Equinox Reviews: Entertainment

Entertainment and convenience technology is another competitive area for SUVs. While many models offer desirable features at higher trim levels, they may not be standard (or even available) at the base or lower trims. That’s not a problem for the Equinox, as US News was sure to mention in their Chevy Equinox review: “The base model is a good choice, especially if you’re on a tighter budget. It comes standard with a well-equipped infotainment system and several active safety features. The Equinox LT is another solid pick as it’s the first trim to offer available amenities like leather seats, a larger touch screen, and navigation.” You’ll find similar sentiments in Car and Driver’s Chevy Equinox review: “A 7.0-inch touchscreen (or optional 8.0-inch screen) displays Chevrolet’s MyLink infotainment interface atop the Equinox’s dash; the system continues to impress with its ease of use and quick responses. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility are standard, as are Bluetooth phone and audio streaming, USB connectivity, and an auxiliary input jack. Standard onboard Wi-Fi makes the Equinox one of the best-connected crossovers.”
