EQUINOX PERFORMANCE & CAPABILITY

---

If you’ve driven the Equinox before, you can look forward to consistent performance in this year’s model. With a standard 1.5L Turbo 4-cylinder engine, you can effortlessly fuel your next adventure with 170 horsepower and 203 lb-ft of torque.

Up to this point, the Equinox has become known as one of the more efficient SUVs around. That is certainly true of the 2022 model, as it sees an EPA-estimated 26 city/31 highway MPG. So, while you take advantage of the engine’s tremendous kick, you don’t have to worry about constantly stopping to re-fuel.

Unlike last year’s Equinox, the 2022 model features the heavily-desired, switchable all-wheel drive (AWD) across all available trim levels, including the all-new RS trim. This brilliant system allows you to alter your drivetrain on-the-fly to better match the road and weather conditions ahead.

EQUINOX INTERIOR & TECHNOLOGY

Year after year, the Chevy Equinox showcases an interior with not just a breathtaking design, but also a slew of comfort, convenience, and connectivity features to help you out along the way.

Although you can comfortably settle into your power-adjustable, heated front seats, the space of the Equinox is where you and your entire crew are truly going to find the most comfort. Here’s how its dimensions break down:

• Headroom (Front/Rear): 40/38.5 inches
• Legroom (Front/Rear): 40.9/39.9 inches
• Shoulder Room (Front/Rear): 57.2/55.5 inches
• Hip Room (Front/Rear): 54.2/51.7 inches
• Cargo Volume to Seat 2: 29.9 cubic feet
• Cargo Volume to Seat 1: 63.9 cubic feet

After you’ve powered up your Equinox with the press of a button, you’ll find a wide range of tech at your disposal. Through the standard 8-inch diagonal HD color touchscreen, you can easily take control of your music, navigation, messages, and more with smartphone integration systems like Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™.

If you’re setting out for a lengthier road trip, you can look forward to consistent connection. Not only can you keep all your devices fully charged with built-in USB ports, but you can also stay tapped in with a standard Wi-Fi® hotspot.

EQUINOX SAFETY & DRIVER ASSISTANCE

---

The Chevy Equinox has never failed to prioritize your safety and that of your passengers, and that certainly holds true in the 2022 model..

It accomplishes standard safety and driver assistance, once again, with the help of the incredible Chevy Safety Assist system. With this comes a slew of intuitive safety features that lend you a hand behind the wheel, including:

• Forward Collision Alert
• Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning
• Automatic Emergency Braking
• Following Distance Indicator
• Front Pedestrian Braking
• IntelliBeam® High Beam Assist

This system also incorporates a number of available features like Front and Rear Park Assist, a brilliant HD Surround Vision camera system, and unique Teen Driver technology.

With the Teen Driver system, you can keep a close eye on the driving habits of your newest driver. You can limit and customize certain vehicle systems to help maintain safe driving. You’ll even be provided a regular in-vehicle report card to show you their driving habits and, hopefully, provide an assist during your next driving lesson.
