Are you in the market for a compact SUV that you can use as an everyday family hauler? You can’t go wrong with theĀ 2025 Chevy Equinox! This handsomely styled crossover vehicle is exceptional when it comes to power, ride quality, and practicality. Here’s a quick rundown on some of its most compelling features.

Efficient and Capable Drivetrain

Helping to achieve a fuel economy of up to 27 MPG combined, the Equinox’s drivetrain is appealing for buyers looking to keep fuel costs down. On front-wheel-drive models, the turbocharged 1.5L 4-cylinder engine’s output of 175 hp and 203 lb-ft of torque is distributed through a continuously variable transmission to deliver strong performance whenever you need it.

Opting for the available all-wheel-drive system gets you an 8-speed automatic transmission and enhanced traction while you negotiate tricky conditions. The system is active at all times, continuously monitoring all four wheels in order to prevent wheelslip.

Refined Chassis

The Equinox backs up its sporty looks with responsive handling and excellent agility in the corners, which result from the vehicle’s expertly tuned MacPherson strut front suspension and 4-link rear suspension. Whether you’re traveling over bumpy roads or rough trails, the suspension has no problem smoothing out the ride. Well-weighted steering adds to an engaging drive while Duralife brake rotors ensure quick stops.

Attractive and Spacious Passenger Cabin

Sleek and streamlined interior design, premium materials, and lots of room for passengers and cargo mean that the Equinox’s cabin is quite inviting and functional. Not only is there around 40 inches of legroom in both rows, but the back row accommodates taller passengers with more than 39 inches of headroom. You’ll be able to take advantage of close to 30 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats, as well.

Top-Notch Amenities

Base LT models come with desirable creature comforts like heating for the front seats and steering wheel and an air filtration system. ACTIV and RS variants add another layer of luxury with standard dual-zone climate control and 8-way power adjustability for the driver’s seat. While the RS sports Evotex seat trim, the ACTIV wraps its seats in sueded microfiber.

An available driver memory system remembers seat and side mirror settings for two drivers, making it easy to exchange driving duties with another passenger during cross-country trips. As for infotainment, an 11.3-inch touchscreen system recognizes voice commands and enables access to wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay connectivity and Google Built-in’s convenient apps.

The Chevrolet Equinox has everything you could ask for in a family vehicle, from a dependable powertrain to useful technology. Make a stop at Trapp Chevrolet in Houma, LA today and experience it for yourself!
