Chevrolet’s all-electric Equinox EV is tailored to help customers make a seamless, confident and uncompromising transition to an EV. Equinox EV rounds out an electric Chevy portfolio that covers major segments, including full-size trucks, midsize SUVs and compact SUVs. The Equinox EV boasts an EPA-estimated range of 319 miles on FWD models.
Today, the Equinox EV has a starting MSRP of $43,295. The base Equinox EV LT with a starting MSRP of $34,995 will be available for ordering later in the year.
With the Equinox EV, designers and engineers focused on style, space, safety and value attributes that made the gas-powered Equinox second to the Silverado in Chevy sales and elevated them with expressive design, electrifying capability and effortless EV technology.
In addition to the Ultium-based propulsion technologies, key features include a large, 17.7-inch-diagonal infotainment screen, a strong suite of standard and available driver assistance technologies, and available Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance technology on compatible roads.
At a glance, the Equinox EV’s expressive design has an athletic, bold and commanding appearance that is instantly recognizable as a Chevy SUV. Two distinctive personalities — LT and RS — are offered in both FWD and AWD drive configurations.
Highlights include:
- Sleek lines and sporty proportions enabled by the Ultium Platform
- Available innovative walk-up lighting, with front and rear lighting animation and an available unique light bar on mid- and up-level LT and RS trims
- Standard 19-inch wheels, with available 21-inch wheels depending on the trim
- Available AutoSense liftgate that can open hands-free when sensing the key fob is near the back of the vehicle
- Available two-tone white roof on LT and available black roof on RS
Inside, a streamlined and modern interior offers room for five, available personalized multi-color ambient lighting and a smart infotainment system with Google Built-in, which includes Google Maps, Google Assistant and the Play Store. It also has a spacious cabin, with numerous storage solutions from front to rear, as well as up to 57.2 cubic feet (1,614 liters) of max cargo room, with the rear seat folded.
When it comes to comfort and convenience, heated front and rear outboard seats, a heated steering wheel and even a heated windshield wiper park feature, which helps keep the area around the wipers clear of ice buildup, are available.
Chevrolet is committed to making the EV transition seamless, with support such as available navigation and route planning through the MyChevrolet app, which helps locate and plot routes to charging stations.
By continuing to work with others in the industry, GM is helping to accelerate the installation of accessible public charging throughout North America. Through the MyChevrolet mobile vehicle app, customers have access to over 174,000 public chargers and growing, throughout the U.S. and Canada.
Chevrolet also knows safety is top priority for families and the Equinox EV delivers with a strong list of standard features like the Chevy Safety Assist, which includes Automatic Emergency Braking, Following Distance Indicator, Forward Collision Alert, Front Pedestrian Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning and IntelliBeam automatic high beams.
Additionally, Super Cruise, the industry’s first true hands-free driver-assistance technology is also available. It allows drivers to travel hands-free on more than 400,000 miles of compatible roads across the U.S. and Canada.
Electrifying capability
A standard front-wheel-drive system with GM estimated 213 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque offers quick acceleration and a fun driving experience for everyday tasks, with a 288-horsepower and 333 lb-ft torque eAWD system available.
One-Pedal Driving is standard and allows the Equinox EV to accelerate and slow to a full stop, using only the accelerator. It’s paired with regenerative braking, which can convert the kinetic energy of the vehicle’s forward momentum into electricity that’s stored in the battery pack to maximize the driving range.
The Equinox EV also packs the latest in charging technology:
- Standard 11.5 kW Level 2 (AC) charging, which can add up to 34 miles of range per hour of charging, per GM estimates
- Standard DC fast-charging capability of up to 150 kW, which enables approximately 70 miles of range to be added in 10 minutes, per GM estimates
GM covers the Equinox EV’s battery with an 8-year/100,000-mile limited warranty, in addition to the vehicle’s standard bumper-to-bumper coverage for added peace of mind.
