Why it stands out

The 2021 Chevrolet Equinox stands out as a roomy compact SUV that balances everyday practicality with a fairly polished driving experience. It belongs to the third generation, which is described as having a spacious interior and technology that continued to advance through the model run. For buyers, that makes it appealing as a used crossover that feels more substantial than many rivals without giving up the easy-to-live-with footprint of the segment.

For 2021, the Equinox’s powertrain line-up had been pared back to the 1.5-litre four-cylinder engine and its six-speed automatic, after the 2.0-litre engine and nine-speed automatic were dropped for that model year. The 1.5-litre engine was rated at 175 hp and 203 lb-ft of torque in 2023, but the source does not give a 2021 figure, so the safest takeaway is simply that this model year was offered with the smaller engine only. The third-generation Equinox also earned a five-star safety rating from the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration for every model year rated, and the 2020 and 2021 models were named a Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

The 2021 Equinox is also attractive because it sits in the more dependable part of the model’s history. The third generation is widely cited as more reliable than previous versions, and issues on CarComplaints.com drop off dramatically after the 2019 model year. At the same time, it is not perfect: the source notes that the Equinox does not hold its value well, and owner feedback points to disappointment with the base model’s interior quality and some performance-related concerns.
