Reading other reviews I see the main thing that people complain about is the power of the Equinox. If you're after power you need to consider some other vehicle, not the Equinox. While the Equinox is not a nag on the road, it's not a 'beast' to be reckoned with, it was never intended for that market. The very small 1.5 engine turns out 175hp, when you kick the turbo it does well for normal needs. I used to have a 71 SS 454, so I know the difference. I can still give 4 stars easily because the Equinox is a good reliable car, one that is attractive and economical. My first new Equinox was a 2010 (my current back up car) with the 2.4 engine. Yes, it was subject to the engine recall for rings, which Chevrolet paid for 100%, that done, the car has been at work continuously the last 8 years. Since then I've had a new 2015 Equinox, which I traded for a 2015 Santa Fe Sport. I kept the sport almost 3 weeks before it had to go. My 2020 held up great- except for the 120# deer. It's in the garage waiting to be repaired. I gave no real consideration of looking to anything other than another Equinox, although my sister tried to talk me into a 2023 Santa Fe, but truthfully, they're not attractive at all. I've had the new 2023 RS for 4 weeks. The ride is smooth, gas mileage is about 31 mpg, handles well, very little road noise, responsive steering, accelerates smoothly, no trouble passing. The trim level has an attractive interior with very comfortable and cool cloth seats, black with red accents and RS badging. The seating is for 5, although the 3 in the back would not be happy for long travels. The exterior black trim and android wheel package is sportier and more attractive than the standard Equinox. Like others before it, it has ample space for carrying needed items for your work, I carry 6 or 7 large cases loaded with various photo equipment for location shooting with no problem. The standard powered back gate is a definite plus when you work out of the back of your vehicle. For my purposes, none which involve racing, the Equinox is great for short or long trips. A couple of things which should become standard, but have been cut due to parts supply, are blind spot and cross traffic. These are two excellent safety enhancements, they were on my 2020 LT, but not on the 2023 RS, I was unable to locate an RS that had them. This is the main reason I dropped a star. Living in the Southeast, the BSW system is much more important to me than a heated steering wheel, seats or rear view mirrors. All in all, while the Equinox can't be ranked at the top, it is an excellent all around choice with economy and attractive styling together in one package. The price I paid was about $4k below MSRP.

The Equinox is the perfect size vehicle. It is easy to drive, easy to park, and holds a good deal in the large back space when the seats are down!

So far we like every thing about this vehicle. It looks great, runs great, rides and handles great. Is much easier to get into and out of than our previous vehicle and has much more space for people and cargo than our previous vehicle.

Bought a 2022 Equinox LT. Reviews says it is low on power, and rides rough. Not true!!!! I’ve only had mine a week and it rides smooth and packs plenty of power along with a roomy and comfy interior. Entertainment system is excellent and easy to use. Buy this not to mention gas milage is good. I drive 48 miles round trip to work and get good milage

This is my second Equinox and it is the perfect travel vehicle for my wife and I and our three dogs. With our kids living as far away as Colorado and as near as Illinois the highway mileage, safety features and comfort are exceptional.
