Chevrolet, one of the largest car manufacturers in the world, adheres to its tenets of quality, safety, and innovation. All Chevy cars, trucks, and SUVs bear their trademark innovative features and are equipped with advanced safety technology to ensure that your journey remains hassle-free. The 2020 Chevrolet Equinox is no different! This latest edition of crossover SUVs checks all the boxes when it comes to efficiency, style, and affordability. It is an appealing and practical crossover SUV with its agile driving demeanor and plenty of space.

What’s new?
With the 2020 Chevrolet Equinox, driver-assistance features find a strong foothold in the standard features list. It consists of automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane-keeping assist, automatic high-beam headlamps, lane-departure warning; all of which were previously optional but are now a part of every model. If this isn’t enough to leave you awestruck, there’s a Midnight Edition package on LT models that can blackout about everything, including the Chevy bow-tie logos.

Performance
Whether you are going upstate or are planning a long journey, the 2020 Chevy Equinox can handle anything. You have two powerful engines to choose from, and they are equipped with fuel-saving stop/start technology for added efficiency. The 1.5L turbo engine with an EPA-estimate of 31 MPG highway is a powerful choice. However, if you wish to upgrade and wish to have a more get-up-and-go engine, the 2.0L turbo engine, paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission, should be your pick. It offers 252 horsepower with 260 lb.-ft of torque. Also, this compact crossover SUV is equipped with a Tow/Haul mode button, which can help you haul up to 3,500 lbs.

Pricing
The prices for the different Equinox trims are:
L: Starts at $23,800
LS: Starts at $26,300
LT: Starts at $27, 500
Premier: Starts at $31,400

The mid-range Equinox LT gives the best value in its class (if you aren’t adding expensive option packages). Moreover, it is equipped with several features that make it a better choice than the LS.
