Description:

The Chevrolet Equinox EV is a compact electric SUV built on GM’s Ultium-based platform and positioned as a mainstream electric alternative to popular gasoline crossovers. The Chevrolet Equinox EV emphasizes long driving range, practical packaging, and modern in-car technology rather than sporty performance.

Range and Battery of the Chevrolet Equinox EV:

  • An 85 kWh battery pack is standard across the range.
  • Front-wheel-drive versions are rated for up to 513 km of driving range, while all-wheel-drive models provide up to 494 km.
  • Real-world testing reported approximately 467 km of range in cold-weather conditions.
  • DC fast charging supports up to 150 kW, adding roughly 124 km of range in about 10 minutes.
  • Charging from 10% to 80% typically requires around 35–40 minutes on a compatible DC fast charger; Level 2 charging takes about 10 hours.

Powertrain and Performance of the Chevrolet Equinox EV:

  • Front-wheel-drive models use a single electric motor producing 164 kW and 330 Nm, while dual-motor all-wheel-drive versions increase output to 224 kW and 480 Nm.
  • A single-speed reduction gearbox delivers smooth power delivery with no traditional gear changes.
  • Front-wheel-drive models typically accelerate from 0–100 km/h in approximately 7.5–7.7 seconds; all-wheel-drive models reduce that to about 5.8–6.0 seconds.
  • The battery pack is mounted low in the chassis, improving stability and lowering the center of gravity compared with many gasoline SUVs.
  • Suspension tuning prioritizes ride comfort and daily commuting, with compliant ride quality even on available 21-inch wheels.

Technology and Features of the Chevrolet Equinox EV:

  • Standard 45 cm infotainment touchscreen paired with a 28 cm digital instrument display.
  • Google Built-In includes navigation, route planning, voice control, and access to downloadable apps.
  • Super Cruise hands-free driving assistance is available on higher trims.
  • Available features include a head-up display, 360-degree camera system, heated and ventilated front seats, and heated rear seats.
  • Wireless phone charging, over-the-air software capability, ambient lighting, and power-retracting door handles are available depending on trim.

Pros & Cons

Pros:

The Chevrolet Equinox EV offers up to 513 km of range in LT FWD and RS FWD trims, giving it strong usability for daily driving and longer trips.
LT FWD starts at CAD 46,200 and still includes the same 85 kWh battery as higher trims.

Reviewers commonly noted a quiet cabin, smooth suspension tuning, and relaxed daily-driving behavior.

A 17.7-inch infotainment screen and 11-inch digital driver display give the cabin a modern technology layout.
Integrated Google Maps supports EV route planning, charger search, and battery preconditioning.

Cons:

This is one of the most common complaints from reviewers and owners, especially for Apple users.

The 164 kW FWD versions are adequate, but acceleration and handling feel more practical than exciting.
The sleek roofline helps efficiency but slightly limits rear headroom and cargo height.
The cabin has strong screen technology, but some reviewers noted hard plastics, basic audio, and minor fit-and-finish concerns.
