Even the estimated EPA readings of 22 city/ 28 highway aren’t that great. However, with the relatively small engine, start-stop technology and the 9-speed automatic, I felt fuel economy was low at 19.5 mpg during our test run. Except on acceleration, you barely feel it shift. There is little or no engine noise, although some tire noise intrudes into the cabin on less-than-perfect road surfaces. The quiet engine delivers good power for the 3,327-pound vehicle, and its operation is quiet. Under the sculpted hood rides a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four. There’s a significantly restyled hood and the side styling has more creases than Princess Di’s wedding dress. Once I got over the size differential, I began to enjoy Equinox’s attributes a bit more.įirst, there’s the new styling from the redesigned Equinox. Our tester actually arrived the week after driving the Silverado, so there was significant culture shock in switching between vehicles. But it is Chevy’s second-best selling vehicle, behind the Silverado pickup, so a lot of people obviously do think of the Equinox. When thinking of small to mid-size SUVs, one wouldn’t necessarily think of the Chevrolet Equinox.
