I traded in my Bolt Euv for a 2025 LT and am very pleased. The price point is fantastic, particularly given the current tax incentive and other available rebates. Factor in that you save a pile of money on gas compared to the cost to charge at home, and that makes this very economical to drive. I will save over $200 a month on gas costs, which includes factoring in the bump in the electric bill. I agree that the convenience package is worth the slight bump in price, but not a deal breaker for those who are cost-sensitive. Range here in a frigid Michigan winter has been rock solid for my 75-mile daily commute, with lots of range remaining when charging to 80%. Super quiet. The oddly dark rearview mirror is my one complaint. Lots of cargo room. I have 12,000 miles on it now and it has been trouble free. Rides like new still. Overall, great car!

Nice car, BUT…..Vehicle delivered with major water leak at seam of deiver’s A pillar and roof headliner. Dealership discovered this was caused by a known defect listed on service advisory. Water is entering from faulty sunroof assembly. Sunroof needs to be replaced, but is on back order with no date promised for fix. I bought the car 10 days earlier. Not even offered a loaner car.

I'm Electrified!

Been wanting to go electric but waiting for the much anticipated $34,995 Equinox EV version to become available. Finally here so I traded in my 2020 Equinox gas powered vehicle for the 2025 Equinox EV. I've seen reviews saying "its acceleration is considered "lackluster" and not particularly exciting" but I found the acceleration to be superior to that of my former gas powered Equinox. I love the one-pedal driving feature that allows the vehicle to slow down and stop using only the accelerator pedal. This regenerative braking helps to recoup and store energy when the vehicle decelerates. Took a bit of getting used to but now I often take an entire trip without touching the brake! All this, and an MSRP of $34,995, the Clean Air Vehicle rebate of $7,500, military discount of $500, and the trade in value of my old Equinox, made it an offer too good to pass up. Not to mention I love driving the vehicle! Mine is an Equinox EV 1LT but there was only the option to select the 2LT model in Vehicle details.

Best Bang For The EV Buck

I bought it in November 2024, but it's the 2025 model and as I'm writing this, it's the end of January 2025. About 50 percent of my driving so far has been in temperatures of 20 and lower to -10. Overall, it's performed well in the winter, but I feel GM needs a software update for the heat pump. The range always will drop in an EV in cold weather and heat pumps should help, but this one should be be more efficient. For example, 2.9 kwh average for city driving when the temp is around zero. My other small complaints are with what is not available on this car. The audio system is barely adequate and Chevy doesn't offer an optional sound system upgrade, not even for my top of the line RS AWD. Also the inside lock buttons and hatch opening button need to be backlit, because they're hard to find at night. Other than those small complaints, I actually love the car and the AWD version is a LOT faster than the FWD version, around 0 to 60 in 5.7 seconds (if that matters to you). Also, it's one of the few EV's you can get with an optional sunroof that opens. Definitely a keeper!

In love with this car

We're about two weeks in and thrilled with the 2025 Equinox EV. Glad we did this purchase before the administration change in case they take away the $7,500 credit. Got that taken off the price at the dealership, plus the only of the other rebates we qualified for, which was $1,500 for a non-GM. Nice-looking car, smooth ride, and while we were worried about it not having Apple Car Play, it's easier to play music off our iPhones than it was in the 2018 Pacifica plug-in hybrid we traded in. The Google app thing and ability to do most of what you want with the instrument panel by saying "OK, Google, turn down the AC," is also pretty cool. The ride is smooth and it has more pick-up than any car I've ever had, but I don't notice that kind of thing much anyway. Like the Edmunds testing, we have also found that this car goes far longer on a charge than what it claims. My husband took our daughter to college, a 255-mile round trip, and it went from 86 to 14 percent. That's 354 miles to a charge in highway and L.A. traffic. It's been more like 360 around town. We got the model with the $8K Convenience package because that's what they had on the lot, but the $34K MSRP base model is probably the best deal. That minus the $7,500 and you have a $26.5K SUV that's really slick and terrific and goes upwards of 350 miles to a charge.
