The new Chevrolet Equinox has shed quite a bit of weight compared to its previous model
#2016 equinox premier full#
The new Chevy weighs 204 kg (450 lbs) less than the previous model at 1,509 kg (3,327 lbs), which results in better fuel economy and acceleration, but we will get to that in the full review. Subtle sculpting in the Equinox’ side paneling make it an interesting vehicle to look at. The entire car has been aero-tested in a wind tunnel and it shows. The front fascia looks like it’s taken athletic styling cues from the other cars in Chevrolet’s lineup such as the Cruze, Malibu and Volt. The grille is more aggressive and trimmed in chrome while the LED headlights have gone from rounded and cute to sharp and sporty. The Equinox finally received a much-needed redesign from its tired second-generation model that’s been in production since 2009. Other competitors in the Equinox’ class include the Ford Escape, Honda CR-V, Nissan Rogue and Jeep Cherokee. It faces stiff competition in the compact crossover market going up against the bestselling Toyota RAV4 that sold 49,103 units last year. Canadian consumers bought 19,197 Equinox utilities in 2016, and over the course of its 13-year tenure upwards of two million have been sold in North America. Past models have sold relatively well in the small SUV category. The all-new 2018 Chevrolet Equinox is here and we have it in our garage. The brand new completely redesigned 2018 Chevrolet Equinox looks great in it’s top-tier Premier trim.
