Key things to evaluate:

• Fuel efficiency: The Equinox’s Natural Resources Canada-rated 8.7 litres per 100 kilometres combined (9.2 city, 8.1 highway) is comparable to the non-hybrids in the group. AWD models are rated at 8.9 and 9.6 L/100 km respectively in the combined and city categories and the same 8.1 on the highway.
• Infotainment: An 11-inch digital instrument cluster and 11.3-inch touchscreen are standard, and the Equinox retains wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Which Chevrolet Equinox trim should I buy?

The 2026 Chevrolet Equinox offers these trims:

• LT: The entry trim brings the standard chrome grille mesh, 17-inch wheels, cloth seats, and the core tech and safety setup. It suits you if you want the most affordable way into the model.
• Activ: This trim adds a more prominent lower front fascia, more chrome trim, all-terrain tires on 17-inch wheels, microfibre and Evotex seats, and standard AWD. It is the best-value trim if you want the most distinctive look and the extra traction.
• RS: The RS adds more black trim, a wider grille, standard 19-inch wheels, Evotex upholstery with red stitching, a flat-bottom steering wheel, and standard AWD. It suits you if you want the sportiest appearance and a more upscale cabin feel.

What Chevrolet Equinox do most buyers choose?

The Chevrolet Equinox years with the most listings are 2023, 2025, and 2024.

These higher-volume years tend to be popular because they give you a strong mix of newer features, broad availability, and pricing that still sits below brand-new inventory. They also make it easier to compare multiple listings and find the right trim and condition for your budget.

What is the Chevrolet Equinox's resale value?

Most Chevrolet Equinox model years are showing double-digit year-over-year price declines, which is good news if you are shopping used. The newer years are falling sharply too, so you may find better value in recent inventory than you would expect from a newer compact SUV. The smallest changes are concentrated in the oldest model years listed, which suggests those examples have already absorbed much of their price movement.

The 2016, 2015, and 2017 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
