Those who have experienced I-355 during a Monday morning rush hour without the help of advanced driver-assistance tools will feel an immense weight lifted off their shoulders once they’re at the helm of a Chevy Equinox LT. One system known as Forward Collision Alert¹ displays a heads-up on the gauge cluster if you’re following the car in front of you too closely or if a crash seems likely. If one is imminent and there is little time to circumvent an accident, the Enhanced Automatic Emergency Braking¹ feature will intervene with forceful brake pressure to help prevent it. Moving between lanes is now much easier with Blind Zone Steering Assist¹, and there is even a Side Bicyclist Alert¹ if it happens to be a cyclist and not another car.

Unlike many other vehicles in its class, the 2027 Chevrolet Equinox LT makes an AWD system available even at its base entry point. The advantage of this drivetrain lies in how well it manages to keep firm ground purchase regardless of whether or not the pathway to the Hidden Oaks Nature Center is rain-slicked. FWD versions of this SUV are more tailored towards better gas mileage, with the Equinox LT achieving 27/29/26 MPG city/hwy/combined² in estimated fuel economy ratings. It’s both efficient and fun to drive, as you can always rely on the immediate thrust forward thanks to the 1.5L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that makes 175 horsepower and 203 lb-ft. of torque.

Facing you within the cockpit of the Equinox LT is over 22 inches of informative and entertainment-focused screens. The 11.3-inch diagonal color LCD is large and interactive, though you can always rely on Google built-In services³ when you need 100 percent of your focus to go to the road ahead of you by speaking your prompts with Gemini⁴. An 11-inch driver information center is the panel that displays the aforementioned safety alerts, as well as your SUV’s current speed and estimated range.
