  • A lot for the money - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox
    By -

    Based of four long test drives, 6 and 4cyl - FWD and AWD, We ordered a 6 cyl- AWD. Excellent ride on a very rough highway. I thought the 18" tires rode better than the 17". We travel with a lot of stuff and sometimes haul a trailer so the 6cyl power is a must. The look and features are hard to believe for under $30,000. Keep it up New GM, its about time.

  • So far so good - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox

    This is a wonderful car since I had a few GM vehicles. But I had some experience about this brand new version; when I got this car first day back, I had a problem with the infotainment screen that was totally blank out, I have to take to the closer dealer for repair; second problem it was an engine stalling out on the road (within 400 miles in odometer), the dealer had to replace some engine part on it. After 2 times back to dealer, this car is running great till now.

  • Best Small SUV since Aztek - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox
    By -

    We started this journey of searching for a new car last year. Dealer after dealer car after car. I even considered buying foreign for the first time in my life. However my wife loved her Aztek and wanted something that would compare to size comfort and cargo space with all the bells and whistles. We drove Honda, Toyota, Nissan, Buick, and then one last chance for GM we went to John Miles Chevrolet. They were so laid back they let the car sell itself. We saw the Equinox 2010 sitting in front of the showroom. We drove it and the rest is history.

    Wife and I like it a lot. Nice styling, ride, handling, features, value. No beefs about the gas mileage.

  • First 4 cylinder - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox
    By -

    I waited until the newness wore off to write a review. First the performance of the 2.4 is a pleasant surprise. After driving V8s for years, I was apprehensive. I just returned from a 3547 mi. trip to Az. and back to Wa. Highway speeds from 60 to 75 were maintained and at elevations from sea level to 7000 ft. Mileage for the trip was 26 mpg actual, about 1.2 mpg below indicated. I have no question that the 29 mpg could be achieved (or exceeded) at 65 mph max. and no mountain driving. I dont have that discipline. The Equinox is extremely quiet at highway speeds. On rubberized asphalt there is no road noise either. Seating is very comfortable (my bad back is appreciative). Good Ride!

    Love the styling but the the back end needs to look more bold. Lot of positive comments from friends. Had a Tahoe (nice) but wanted better MPG & utility. Bought Silver w/Black cloth int & pwr sunroof. Definitely, not a rocket, but gets up to speed in time & the average mpg is just under 23 as long as you have a good mix of highway & city. Lots of traff lights impacts quickly. No road trips yet to verify the 29 mpg. Had also looked at the Rav 4 and the CRV. Passed on the Rav cause the rear door swings out & did not like the base of rear armrest sticking up when folding the rear seats down. The CRV was nice, but liked the Equinox styling much more. I would recommend the leather seating

  • I would suggest it over a Ford Escape - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox

    I was shopping around for a 4x4 or AWD. After coming back from vacation I decided to stop by a local dealership with little intention on buying, like I said just shopping. I looked at this vehicle and new I liked the looks inside and out. It is roomy, has plenty of features even if it is not the top of the line model, very little road noise, comfortable drive and we cant believe it is a 4 cyl. Oh yeah I got the moon roof... slides back or vents up - LOVE THIS!!!

  • Guarantee youll love this car! - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox
    By -

    G.M. is finally coming back to what I remember as a fine automobiles in the 50s and early 60s. Ive owned what some consider as the best, Lexus LS, Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, Jag XJ 6, and I wouldnt trade this 2010 Equinox for any of them. This little 4Cy is smooth, peppy and very, very quiet. Exterior and interior show quality workmanship far superior to anything in this class and price. My wife prefers this to her Buick Lucerne, which I think is also a nice vehicle. The Nox has beautiful lines and I get compliments all the time from both men and women. This car proves that Americans can still design and build a quality car that most can afford and will enjoy driving!

  • Nice Ride for the Price - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox

    So far I have nothing negative to say about my new Equinox. The first tank of gas (mostly hwy) we were over 30 mpg! This is definitely another step in the right direction for GM.

  • Best of all Crossover SUV - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox
    By -

    This vehicle is great compared to Escape, CRV, and RAV4 (style, comfort, and features. I traded my 97 Merc Mountaineer AWD (14 mpg). Never heard of Equinox until I started shopping around and researching to take advantage of the CARS program. I was very impressed the first time I test drove it. Stopping myself from purchasing the first one I test drove, I tried the 3 others mentioned above. I kept coming back to Equinox. Ideally, I wanted LT2 with 4 cyl but could only find LT2 with V6. I chose 4 cyl to take advantage of the mileage (to save almost $2K in fuel/year from my Moutaineer) so I had to settle with a sharp looking gray LT1 with black and silver interior.
