Chevrolet Equinox Reviews: What Critics Say

What are auto critics saying about the Chevrolet Equinox reliability, features, and performance? Check out Chevrolet Equinox reviews from reputable sources:

U.S. News & World Report

“Looks aren’t everything, but they certainly don’t hurt, and the 2026 Chevrolet Equinox has style to spare. Redesigned just last year, this still-new Equinox is chiseled where its predecessor was soft, and it looks properly truck-like among its compact SUV peers. The interior is equally snazzy, with big, pretty screens running fairly intuitive software. It’s comfy inside, too, and more than able to handle small family road trips. Size- and price-wise, it slots neatly between Chevy’s smaller, more basic Trax and pricier midsize Blazer, but it shares only its name with the electric Equinox EV.”

The U.S. News & World Report review also touches on Chevrolet Equinox reliability:

“The 2026 Chevrolet Equinox has a predicted reliability score of 88 out of 100. A J.D. Power predicted reliability score of 91-100 is considered the Best, 81-90 is Great, 70-80 is Average, and 0-69 is Fair and considered below average.”

Car and Driver

“Inside, the Equinox’s cabin is roomy for adults with plenty of cargo space for luggage or a large grocery haul. The interior styling is fresh and contemporary, with attractive materials and a nice balance of physical and digital controls. Cloth upholstery is standard, and faux leather is optional, but the top-spec Activ trim gets a mix of the vinyl with microfiber for a more upscale look and feel. A column-mounted shift lever frees up more space in the center console for storage, where you’ll also find a rotary knob controller for the infotainment system, an optional wireless smartphone charger, and a pair of cupholders.”

Edmunds

“Every Equinox is motivated by a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder; there are no performance or hybrid powertrains available. But buyers do have at least one option to make this compact crossover stand out from the crowd. Chevrolet offers the Equinox in the Activ trim level, with 17-inch all-terrain tires and a few cosmetic tweaks giving it a more rugged appearance. Compact SUVs with some level of off-road ability (or at least off-road-inspired styling) are popular these days, and the Equinox Activ answers the “wild thing” call.”
