Equinox, which comes off as Chevrolet’s crossover SUV, comes back for the model year of 2023 to take over the road race to stardom.

While Chevrolet has always been a reliable brand, Equinox can definitely deliver what you can expect for an SUV of that class and range to deliver what a two-row SUV can.

But it does the deed of delivering from one point to another, but it cannot be compared to what other SUVs in its range offer. That might be why it makes less noise than the rest in its range.

But the car does have it plus by having good cabin space and a willing chassis. But needless to say, it comes with other goodies in the standard edition itself.

One of the most spoken about things which put the 2023 Chevrolet Equinox at a disadvantage is that it does not help with efficiency, even with its turbocharged engine.

While many miss the old 2.0-litre four-cylinder, the weak-willed engine with no standard transmission is expected inspite of the turbo engine replacement that came with the newer versions.

While an EV is expected to drop and cure the blues Chevrolet Equinox has caused, it won’t be coming anytime soon, and that is set to drop as a 2024 model and expected to start deliveries by the Fall of 2023.

While the rivals of Chevrolet Equinox are gems of their brand, like Mazda’s CX-5, Honda’s CR-V and Subaru’s Forester, it is quite a hard race, to be honest.

While Equinox can be a simple SUV for your family, you can look at more options than this because the 2023 version might come with a few changes.

The reason is that the 2022 version received a lot of interior and exterior changes that make the Chevrolet stick with a lot of the same features for 2023. They also added some new trims last year, so only a few updates were expected for the 2023 model year.

By ranking among the other SUVs in its range in 14th place, Equinox seems like a safe option but not something you can hype about.

When will the 2023 Chevrolet Equinox be available?

Well, the 2023 Chevrolet Equinox is already available in the dealers near you and is available for booking.

What is the price of the 2023 Chevrolet Equinox?

One of the most spoken-about advantages of the 2023 Chevrolet Equinox is that it has many standard features, even in its base trim, so if you are going for the base trim, you can go for it at the price of $27,995.

While the most valuable variant is the LT, which starts at the price of $29.095, many seem to recommend the RS model.

While the RS, which started off with a price of $32,095, has everything that LT offers too, like remote start, dual-zone climate control, rear cross-traffic alert, blind-spot monitoring, heated front seats, blind-spot monitoring, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and a power liftgate, it does not come with a darkened trim of the RS which makes the price of RS reasonable.

What are the new features of the 2023 Chevrolet Equinox?

While the model year 2022 saw significant changes in both the interior and exterior of Chevorlet Equinox and with the addition of an extra trim to the lineup, the same would not be repeated for the new model year of 2023.

The 2023 model will receive minor changes only. While the torque of the powertrain remains the same at 203 pound-feet of twist, five horsepower is added to the vehicle, which pulls it up to 175 horsepower on the whole.

Three exterior paint colours have been added to a new version, which makes the car now to be available in eight colours.

Chevrolet ditches its conventional vacuum-boosted brake system and replaces it with an electronically assisted system which is called an “E-boost” by Chevrolet.

Equinox will also get a Sport and Midnight edition for the base LS trim level, which makes it another addition to the already praised base level of the 2023 Chevrolet Equinox, which seems to have better features than other base models in its exact range.

What is the fuel efficiency of the 2023 Chevrolet Equinox?

The estimated fuel efficiency of a front-wheel Chevrolet Equinox in the city is 26 mpg and 31 mpg on the highway. 

The all-wheel drive reduces the rating to 2 mpg for the city and one mpg for the highway. At the same time, the previous 1.5-litre engine with all-wheel drive gave out 32 mpg.

How is the interior of the 2023 Chevrolet Equinox?

While most of the luxurious settings are available in the RS, the other trims do not disappoint. Both rows are spacious and filled with amenities that could hold them up for long rides.

While the materials inside are durable, the quality of the materials increases with high-level trims. 

The infotainment centre is based on a 7.0-inch touchscreen, making it very user-friendly. The 4G LTE onboard Wi-Fi makes gives it an upper hand and makes it one of the best-connected cars in its range.

What type of engines does the 2023 Chevrolet Equinox have?

The 2023 Chevrolet Equinox comes with a turbocharged 1.5-litre four-cylinder engine, making up for 175 horsepower when equipped with all-wheel drive.

It can tow up to 3500 pounds when added with appropriate types of equipment and comes with a six-speed automatic transmission.
