Chevrolet Equinox at a glance
Quick model context before comparing photos and trim-level specifications.
Introduced in January 2024, the fourth-generation Chevrolet Equinox transitions to a more rugged, squared-off look heavily inspired by Chevrolet's truck lineup. The compact SUV features a wider stance and distinct styling directions across its three main trim levels: the standard LT, the sporty RS, and the outdoor-focused ACTIV. Each variant has its own unique front grille treatment and exterior accents to appeal to different tastes. Mechanically, the 2024 Equinox relies on a single turbocharged four-cylinder engine paired with either front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. The choice of drivetrain also dictates the transmission, with front-wheel-drive models utilizing a continuously variable transmission (CVT) and all-wheel-drive variants receiving an eight-speed automatic. This generation places a strong emphasis on modernizing the driving experience, introducing larger displays and standard active safety systems to better compete in the crowded compact crossover segment.

Chevrolet Equinox overview
Editorial context for design, cabin, performance, practicality, and buyer notes.
Design
The exterior design of the 2024 Chevrolet Equinox adopts a muscular, truck-like aesthetic. Its wide front fascia is dominated by a prominent grille, available in chrome or gloss black depending on the trim. Standard LT trims can be configured with a Midnight Edition that adds gloss black details. The RS trim emphasizes sportiness with black mirror caps, black badges, and 19-inch Carbon Flash aluminum wheels. The ACTIV trim is geared toward rugged utility, featuring vertical grille inserts, gray-metallic accents, 17-inch aluminum wheels wrapped in all-terrain tires, and an optional contrasting white roof.
Interior
Inside the cabin, the 2024 Equinox features a redesigned layout centered around an 11.3-inch infotainment touchscreen. Seating materials and accents vary by model, with options including Evotex synthetic leather and microfiber. The sporty RS trim includes red and blue decorative stitching and RS logos on the headrests, alongside options for heated front and outer rear seats and ventilated front seats. The ACTIV trim incorporates microfiber upholstery with unique headrest branding. Cargo utility remains a focus, with a folding second-row seat helping configure the rear space, which provides up to 845 liters of storage capacity.
Performance
The 2024 Chevrolet Equinox is powered by a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine producing 175 horsepower and 250 Nm of torque. Buyers can choose between front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive. Front-wheel-drive configurations use a continuously variable transmission (CVT) to manage power delivery. All-wheel-drive models upgrade to an 8-speed Hydra-Matic automatic transmission to better handle varying road conditions. The vehicle's turning circle is 11.3 meters, making it highly maneuverable in urban environments.
Practicality
As a five-passenger SUV, the Equinox is designed for daily family duties. It features a wheelbase of 2730 mm, providing solid legroom across both rows. Practicality is supported by an 845-liter trunk capacity, allowing ample room for luggage and gear. The folding rear seats add flexibility for carrying bulkier items. With a 56-liter fuel tank, the vehicle offers a reasonable range for both commuting and longer road trips, while the raised ride height simplifies entry and exit.
Safety and tech
Standard safety features are anchored by the Chevy Safety Assist package, which includes automatic emergency braking, forward collision alert, lane keep assist, and a following distance indicator. Additional driver assistance options include adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, and parking assistance. Parents of young drivers can use the Teen Driver system, which allows customization of vehicle settings and provides driving report cards. The primary tech feature is the 11.3-inch central touchscreen, which handles multimedia and vehicle settings.
Buyer notes
When shopping for the 2024 Chevrolet Equinox, buyers should carefully match their trim choice with their driving environment. The front-wheel-drive model with the CVT is tailored for city commuting, while the all-wheel-drive version with the 8-speed automatic provides better traction. The LT represents the standard entry point, the RS adds sporty visual enhancements, and the ACTIV is tailored for light off-road paths. Specific features, such as heated or ventilated seats, can vary depending on individual packages, and local market availability should be verified with dealerships.
