Overview & Reviews
Part of a growing segment of plus-sized small crossover SUVs, the Chevrolet Equinox splits the difference between compact and midsize utility vehicles and offers roomy accommodations in a five-passenger layout. Like other vehicles in its class, the Equinox emphasizes style, amenities and day-to-day practicality over more traditional SUV attributes. In short, the Chevy Equinox is a fine choice for commuting to work or transporting pets, but it's not suited for towing, or anything more rugged than a gravel road.
Although the Equinox has always had a roomy interior and an easy-driving nature, the plain styling and low-quality interior materials in earlier models are none too impressive by today's standards. Later versions of this Chevrolet crossover have made big strides in quality and are available with more desirable features and engine choices.

Problematic! - 2008 Chevrolet Equinox
By J Powers - January 12 - 12:06 pmWithin days of purchase realized the motor was too loud. Dealership said that was normal only to rescind that point of view a week later when we took a stand that it was unacceptable. Vehicle in the shop more than 2 weeks while they tore the motor down and discovered a bent connector rod. All fixed up at no additional cost to us, but not very impressed with a rebuild on my new vehicle. Recent problems include the inside windows actually frosting up and staying covered in ice despite the blowers going full tilt....again dealership indicated this is a problem with these types of vehicles. Wonderful news. To top it off, this morning the thing wouldnt start! Towed to the dealership again.

Unique SUV - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
By CrumleyDave - January 10 - 10:00 amIve had my Equinox for about 2 months now, and love it. I have had so many compliments on it! Its such a fun, unique SUV, but yet, it feels like youre in a car. Very roomy and comfortable.. I love it! If only a front tag bracket was offered!

Never again GM! - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
By japauley - January 9 - 3:51 pmI was so looking forward to buying this vehicle. Then I did. I had to tell the salesman the specs on the Equinox. GMs SmartBuy program is a joke. You have to pay them to take the vehicle back if you decide you dont want it! The tires went bald at 15k miles. Then it took 3 months to find tires! The service engine soon light comes on every 4-5 starts and Chevy says just to ignore it, rather than figure out what causes it. They want $13k after 4 years for the vehicle when it goes straight to auction for $5k. Gas mileage is not what they advertised! I get 11-16 mpg. Its supposed to get 19-25. Ill never buy another GM since I can get a much better vehicle for less than what I paid on this one

Comfortable, economical & reliable. - 2012 Chevrolet Equinox
By Glenn Davis - January 5 - 7:03 pmPurchased as a certified vehicle from my local Chevy dealer in July of 2014 with 33K on the odometer. Got new tires as part of the deal. Up to 114K miles and I can say it has been an excellent vehicle for my purposes. I travel to BPCR matches all around the country (3-trips coast-to-coast thus far) and it hauls all my (and often another competitors) gear with zero complaint. New tires every 80K and Mobil-1 every 10K and its keeps on trucking. Think the next one will have the V6 for a bit more umph in the mountains, but the 4cyl averages just under 30mpg at 73mph on the interstates. Especially like its smaller size when in the city. Easy to maneuver/park and handles great (probably has to do with the quality Goodyear tires I keep on it) for an SUV. Have hauled as much as 1500lbs. Zero problems other a warped front rotor that was replaced ($48 part) when I had the pads replaced at 93K miles. Highly recommended.

Best Choice for our Family - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
By The Macs - January 5 - 10:40 amWe are a family of 3, with a small child, and this vehicle is perfect for us. The price is great for a working family. It has roomy back seats. The cargo area is great for luggage plus a baby stroller, not to mention the extra room with the cargo racks. If you want an SUV with a car like feel, this is the choice for you.

Flexibility Par Excellence! - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
By USN - January 5 - 10:00 amWe have owned our Equinox for 40 days,and approximately 1,000 miles. It is by far the vehicle with the most flexible interior that I have ever owned, (35 in all- Im not a 30 something guy!) The seating is very comfortable, and with the combination of the front buckets, and the large rear seat with back tilt and fore/aft adjustment,you can configure the vehicle for anything. The rear leg room for example is greater than a Ford Expedition. It has a longer wheelbase than almost all midsized SUVs, with 9 inches of ground clearance. The numerous storage configurations are remarkable, a tailgaters dream!

Good basic transportation - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
By Gabbie - January 3 - 1:55 pmIm graduating from a 2002 Subaru Outback. I needed AWD and the ability to fit 3 car seats across the back seat. The 2005 Equinox with cloth seats fits the bill. The back seat is cavernous and really easy for the kids to get in and out of their seats (Graco SnugRide, Radian 80, Graco Nautilus). The AWD is great, much superior to the FWD I was renting. I like the higher ride as compared to a car. I like the suspension as compared to a truck chassis like a Trail Blazer. The interior is cheap and basic, but I dont care about any of that and didnt want to pay up for it. The price is hard to beat. All in, this is just what I was looking for.
