About the 2026 Chevrolet Equinox

The Chevy Equinox gets some fun exterior design upgrades for 2026. Black roof rails are available with the Midnight Edition package. They can also be bundled with the add-on sunroof for LT models. A drive mode selector is now standard on all trims. Every Equinox is powered by a turbocharged Chevy four-cylinder with 175 horsepower.

The 2026 Chevrolet Equinox is an excellent family SUV choice for both in-town driving and highway cruising. It's powered by Chevy's 1.5L Turbocharged I-4, which delivers 175 horsepower and 203 lb.-ft. of torque. The wider stance in this model year's design provides more room and comfort for up to five passengers.

Technology Highlights

Every 2026 Chevrolet Equinox gets two digital displays on the dashboard. There's an 11-inch instrument gauge cluster for the driver, plus an 11.3-inch infotainment screen with navigation, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and plenty of apps. Chevy's safety tech includes adaptive cruise control with a lane-centering feature.

Dual 11-inch displays dominate the dashboard – one for gauges, another for Google Built-in infotainment. The electronic shifter moves to the steering column, freeing up console space. Every Equinox includes Chevy Safety Assist with automatic emergency braking, pedestrian detection, lane-keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control.

Design & Styling

This year's Equinox comes in three trim levels: LT, Activ, and RS. The RS is the "sporty" version, while the Activ has a more rugged appearance. These higher trims also give you the option of Chevy's two-tone exterior color schemes. Every Equinox has room for five passengers and their gear.

The Equinox's rugged exterior design projects confidence with squared-off wheel openings and flared fenders. Three trim levels offer distinct personalities: the well-equipped LT, outdoor-focused ACTIV with gray accents, and sporty RS featuring blacked-out elements plus 19-inch wheels.
