Very nicely done!
Picked up the 2LT 4cyl in white diamond w/light titanium leather interior and the 18" upgrade chrome wheels and man it does look sharp! I bought it for my fiance' for Bday/Xmas and I think i'm happier than she is. First thing is it does get 33 mpg I saw it I calculated it and the onboard computer saved it too...achieved on the NJ Turnpike driving 65 mph, i'm sure if you take it to 70+ it drops way off but it will achieve the mileage they claim on the highway. Second is the light titanium leather interior...very nice! It has been a focal point of everyone that's looked at it. My Toyota fan club neighbor came walking by and I opened the door and his eyes popped out his skull..literally..
We will never own a GM product after this car!
This car has been a complete and total nightmare! We have owned it just under 3 years and the repairs on this car has totaled $8,000+ and climbing as soon as it hit 100,000 miles. Burning through oil, which caused a cascade of wear and tear on the engine eventually equaling an engine swap, and then in the shop three more times after that. Chevy knows of the issues with this engine burning through oil but they haven't issued a recall. The engine in this car is also really noisy to begin with, and the computer/tech in this car is glitchy! Before we had the issues with the engine burning oil it would completely die when coming to a stop, which is dangerous with little kids in the car! Worst investment we've ever made and we will never own a Chevy again!

Pleasantly suprised
I went to the dealership wanting a Traverse and left with this car instead. I love my new car and I look forward to the savings on gas milage. The eco button is awesome and the hands free calling are just a few of the things I like about this car. The leg room for the second row is awesome. I couldn't believe how much space is back there. Even though it doesn't have a third row, the space is great for me and my family of 4.
Didn't expect to like this SUV as much as I do
This review is for a V6 AWD 2LT with leather (apparently Edmunds doesn't give us the option to rate a V6 model). After 16,000 miles, this has been an excellent vehicle. You'll likely be happy with it as long as you have the right expectations. The Equinox is not designed to be a sporty SUV. It's a solid, comfortable, roomy, un-pretentious, completely reliable SUV with excellent highway manners, good technology, and good value. Remember, the Equinox is built on the same platform with the same V-6 as the Cadillac SRX, only de-contented and de-tuned (and much cheaper). A new Equinox will be released in a year or so, but I wouldn't hesitate to buy this model again.
So very disappointed...
Research...I bought mine on the spot and worst purchase ever..brought it back the very next day was not happy with it and of course I was stuck with it......just fyi I did buy it used from a Chevy dealership....

I didn't expect a Chevy to be this good
I bought a 2013 6 cylinder AWD 2LT Equinox with leather as a winter/extra vehicle to keep miles off my more expensive cars. I didn't expect a Chevy to be this comfortable, well designed, and almost "elegant" inside. I cross shopped a 2013 Escape SEL, which is sportier but lost points in every other category. The Chevy won with roomier interior, huge backseat room, more comfortable seats, better organized dash, intuitive controls, 301 hp V-6 for the price of a Ford 4 cyl, more refined drive train, quieter ride, classier interior. The Escape had a disjointed "chaotic" non-intuitive dash and controls, uncomfortable back seat with tight leg room, narrow front seats, awkward driving position.
ONE OF THE BEST CARS I HAVE EVER OWNED!
Just a great, dependable, comfortable vehicle with great styling and use of space. Many user friendly features makes it a joy to drive.

Lots of miles and lots of past problems
Well, I brought the car for Uber/Lyft rides. I used to put roughly 29k miles a year for three years. I brought it with 100k miles with a 65k warranty which I used numerous times. First, I’m 6’3”, and this car is very comfortable to ride. Plenty of legroom. Heated seats, NAV, sunroof all still work. I have 260k miles on it, and it runs fairly well. The buzzing when pushed is a common factor to live with. I’ve changed the plus, rear axle, front ball bearings, rotors, rear liftgate power struts, driver seat control (I fixed that for $25), leather seat wear, and PVCs. The worst is the oil consumption. There is a common problem of an internal oil leak that clogs up the catalytic converter, triggering the engine light (P0420 code). I’m getting my third converter, then, at the end of the year I’m selling it. Despite the low rating I enjoy this car immensely. Somewhat numb steering, but, it’s very comfortable to drive and passengers love it!

2013 LT Chevy Equinox
My Equinox has been a work horse, especially with trailer package. Great gas mileage and doesn't burn oil at 50,000 miles. Had both rocker panels replaced due to rusting out in winter driving. Code P0411 is an issue with these cars but can be fixed quickly. Going for 150,000 miles on this car.
I love this car!
I was a Saturn owner since 1994. Changing brands was nerve wracking! I was nervous about buying the Equinox because of the reviews complaining about blind spots. I haven't had any problems in that regard & I'm enjoying the heck out of this vehicle. I don't but a lot of miles on a car so after 6 months I only have 3500 miles on the car. Gas mileage is just about as advertised - 23/29. I get about 22 around town & the best I've gotten on the highway is 30.2. The 4 cyl has been fine, but it can be a little sluggish when accelerating. Not enough to discourage me though.
Classy and affordable.
Great car. Reliable. Affordable. Durable. Love it.
