2025 Chevy Equinox EV

The 2025 Chevrolet Equinox EV is an all-electric SUV that slots below the Blazer EV in Chevy's electric vehicle lineup. Like the Blazer EV, the Equinox EV shares its name with a gas-powered counterpart — in this case, the standard Equinox SUV. The two models are only loosely related, though the end product is similar. With the Equinox EV, you've got a practical small SUV that boasts available all-wheel drive, lots of comfort, and an EPA-estimated range that exceeds 300 miles. If you're new to the world of EVs, this is a good place to start.

Having just launched in 2024, you'd think the 2025 model would carry over with few changes. But that's where you'd be wrong. For 2025, the Equinox EV gets a slight bump in power. Front-wheel-drive models increase from 213 horsepower to 220 hp, while all-wheel-drive versions go from 288 hp to 300 hp. Additionally, Chevy has done away with the numbers in its trim level names. Last year's 2LT, 3LT, 2RS and 3RS trims have been whittled down to just the LT and RS for 2025.

The electric SUV category continues to grow each year. Highly rated EVs on Edmunds include the Ford Mustang Mach-E, Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6, Tesla Model Y and Volkswagen ID.4. Alternatively, check out the Hyundai Kona Electric or Kia Niro EV if you're looking for something less expensive. The Equinox EV's more powerful stablemate, the Blazer EV, is another option if you want to stick with Chevy. An in-depth Expert Rating from our test team is forthcoming, so stay tuned.

We'd get an LT model equipped with the Convenience package to gain access to a number of useful features, including a power driver's seat, heated front seats, a 360-degree camera, a wireless charging pad and a hands-free liftgate.
