What's New for the 2027 Chevrolet Equinox?
Chevy's popular compact SUV returns for the 2027 model year with a few key updates. Front-wheel drive versions of the Equinox now feature a traditional eight-speed automatic transmission, enhancing overall drivability and towing control. Autumn Harvest Metallic is the lineup's newly available exterior color option. The street-inspired RS trim now features exclusively Torch Red interior stitching.
What Are the 2027 Equinox Trims & Features?
The 2027 Chevrolet Equinox is offered in three primary trim levels: LT, RS, and Activ. Many drivers will find the value-packed LT trim to be a great entry point. Featuring an 11.3-inch touchscreen with Google Built-In and wireless Apple CarPlay®/Android Auto® smartphone integration, Chevy's modern infotainment system makes it easy to stay connected. On cold mornings, you'll especially enjoy the heated front seats. Other highlights include keyless entry, a six-speaker stereo system, and an onboard 5G Wi-Fi hotspot.
If you're seeking a sportier look, the Equinox RS is bound to catch your eye. Its racy front fascia and blacked-out elements make a serious statement. A flat-bottom steering wheel gives the interior an exciting feel.
Outdoor lovers should consider the more rugged Equinox Activ. A uniquely tuned suspension and all-terrain tires prepare it for off-road adventures.
How Much Horsepower Does the 2027 Equinox Have?
Under the hood rests a punchy 1.5-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine. It is rated to produce 175 horsepower and up to 203 lb-ft of torque. An eight-speed automatic transmission delivers crisp shifts. While front-wheel drive comes standard on every trim, all-wheel drive is available.
What Safety Features Does the 2027 Equinox Include?
The Equinox comes standard with a long list of safety features. While Front Pedestrian Braking provides extra security in urban environments, the Following Distance Indicator helps you avoid rear-end collisions. Other standard driver-assistance technologies include Lane Keep Assist, Forward Collision Alert with Automatic Emergency Braking, Adaptive Cruise Control, and Side Blind Zone Alert. Additional confidence-inspiring options include Traffic Sign Recognition and an HD Surround Vision camera system.
