Trim Levels
The Chevrolet Equinox lineup starts with the LT, RS, and ACTIV trim levels. LT models feature LED lighting, rugged exterior styling, and attractive alloy wheels. RS versions adopt darker exterior detailing, black badging, unique wheels, and sportier styling treatments that create a more aggressive appearance. ACTIV models take a different direction with all-terrain tires, unique front fascia treatments, and exterior details aimed at drivers wanting a more adventurous character. Chevrolet also offers contrasting roof colours on selected trims, while wheel sizes increase as buyers move through the lineup. The overall design now looks lower, wider, and more athletic than the previous Chevrolet Equinox.
Performance
All versions of the 2026 Chevrolet Equinox feature a 1.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 175 horsepower and 203 lb.-ft. of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission. Fuel economy ranges from 9.4 to 9.7 L/100 km in the city and 8.1 to 8.4 L/100 km on the highway, depending on trim and equipment. ACTIV trims add all-terrain tires and suspension calibration intended for gravel roads and rougher surfaces. Properly equipped models can tow up to 680 kilograms, which suits smaller trailers, lightweight campers, and recreational equipment. Chevrolet has designed the Chevrolet Equinox to suit a variety of different compact SUV applications.
Features and Technology
The 2026 Chevrolet Equinox cabin has a contemporary layout with significantly improved technology integration. The dashboard features an 11.3-inch infotainment touchscreen paired with an 11-inch digital driver information display. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard, along with Google built-in compatibility and available wireless phone charging. Higher trims add upgraded seating materials, heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a premium Bose audio system. RS models introduce sportier interior treatments and contrasting trim accents, while ACTIV trims add unique materials and rugged styling details. Rear-seat passengers benefit from generous legroom, while the cargo area offers ample space for luggage, shopping, or larger items. Chevrolet Safety Assist comes standard and includes automatic emergency braking, lane keep assist, forward collision alert, front pedestrian braking, and additional driver-assistance technologies that now play a major role in compact SUV buyer expectations.
