The Equinox is an all-new compact SUV from Chevrolet. It shares a platform with the Saturn Vue and offers similar levels of space and versatility for buyers seeking practical suburban transportation.

Pros:
  • Standard V6 engine, long wheelbase affords plenty of interior room, fore/aft-adjustable rear seats, available side curtain airbags.
Cons:
  • Costs as much as the more powerful Saturn Vue, limited drivetrain choices, confusing stereo controls.

  • Its Fantastic - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox
    By -

    At this point with less than 1000 miles on it, I feel it is the best vehicle I have ever owned. Everyone loves the color-blue,and all the features on the vehicle. The ride is smooth, the pick- up is fast and powerful, the style is enticing. This vehicle is everything it says it is. I feel this is the best overall vehicle I have ever owned.

    I ordered it new in 2005 with all the available options and only have replaced tires - I have 67000 miles on it now, and no problems. I am seriously thinking of getting a new 2010 model, but believe my gas mileage is better than the rating mpg on the new 2010. I would highly recommend this vehicle. Proud to drive it~! Sharp looking and easy to drive...dependable too!!

    My Equinox was bought after looking at other vehicles for a few months. I went and picked up a brochure from the dealer. I was impressed from the first look. Then I went to the biggest dealer in my area they had the vehicle I wanted so I traded two Fords for it. I love it. The gas mileage is the only thing that is wanting but it is getting there the more miles I drive it.

  • You have to love it - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox

    I purchased my vehicle a week ago. Pros: Amazingly smooth and comfortable drive at about any speed. At highway speeds, the engine stays between 3- 4000rpm almost all the time. The radio has a feature I didnt realize called "autovolume" that increases the volume as you drive. The A/C definetly works very well. Im in Phoenix with 100 degree temperatures over the summer and it cools you down very fast. Cons: The car miscalculates accelerations at times when going at high speeds. This only occured from 80- 90mph which is not a speed people are or should be doing anyways. Overall I am very impressed, especially as the Nox is my first new car purchase.

    I LOVVVVVVVVVVVVVE my Equinox. The price was great and the SUV drives superb,looks and feels great too! I am constantly stop in a parking lot and at a stop lights with people ask question about what type of car is that! I tell them equinox and they look at me like I am crazy. I wanted this car so bad that the dealer call another dealer 150 miles and had it ship to their dealership. The car rides very smooth. I highly recommend the car. I haven t been this happy about a vehicle..I would have never thought I would purchase an american car. HORRAY to Chevrolet!

  • I will buy another Equinox - 2005 Chevrolet Equinox

    This is one of the most comfortable vehicles I have owned. I usually trade every 3 yrs. This equinox has me sold. Ive had foreign cars & trucks. They all seem to have a rough ride & outside noise. This equinox is quiet & takes bumps smoothly. I used it in a courier service for the first 2 years. I routinely take it on long trips. 10 months ago I drove it from Sacramento to LA down I-40 to Amarillo up to Pueblo and back to Sac via hwy 50. Temps outside ranged from 5 to 80 degrees depending on location. Plenty of power for the mountains. Not one problem with this vehicle. I dont work for GM and Im not being paid to write this. Never had a problem. My next car will be an Equinox or Terrain.

    Vehicle really looks sharp. The ride is very smooth and quiet. Handling and acceleration are very good. Lots of legroom in rear when seat is all the way back. Sound system (premium sound with 6 disc CD changer) is terrific.

    i been around chevy trucks and suv for a long time. They all have the same feel to them. The Equinox has a total different feel to it. Look and feel of the truck is great. It has very minor fault from what i see.
