Chevrolet Equinox vs. The Competition
Chevrolet Equinox vs. The Competition
The 2026 Chevy Equinox is a strong, versatile, and fun SUV to drive. It is ideal for families that need the extra space and utility, and great for new college students on their way to their first year of university. Find it in our new inventory at Daniels Long Chevrolet in Colorado Springs today, and see how it compares to other SUVs like it. Find some highlights right here.
Performance
2026 Chevy Equinox: The 2026 Chevy Equinox offers good performance. In most models, expect a 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine with 175 horsepower, a continuously variable transmission, and front wheel drive. The ride is easygoing, and you can use the Equinox for everything from shuttling your kids to school to a short road trip to see a friend near Peyton. The Equinox can also tow up to 1,500 pounds with all-wheel drive.
2026 Toyota RAV4: The new 2026 Toyota RAV4 models are all hybrids. The regular hybrid offers a 2.5-liter engine, two electric motors, and standard front-wheel drive, all good for 226 horsepower. The RAV4 can tow up to 3,500 pounds.
2026 Honda CR-V: The 2026 Honda CR_V offers a 190-horsepower 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine, a CVT, and your choice of front wheel drive or all wheel drive. While it has features like Hill Descent Control, the 2026 Honda CR-V does not handle as well as the other two SUVs. It can also tow the same amount as the Equinox.
Design
2026 Chevy Equinox: Design is where the 2026 Chevy Equinox shines. It offers plenty of room for adults to stretch out and get comfortable for longer rides around Pueblo, and there is still plenty of cargo room left over for sports gear, luggage, and more. Expect a mix of attractive materials and a good blend of digital and physical controls for more intuitive use while on the go. Top trims receive a mix of vinyl and microfiber upholstery.
2026 Toyota RAV4: The 2026 Toyota RAV4 has a blockier, more rugged interior theme than the Equinox, providing several storage bins for storing smaller items. While there's good cargo space, space for taller adults is not as fleshed out as in the Equinox.
2026 Honda CR-V: The 2026 Honda CR-V provides a handsome interior with good storage options and decent cargo space. Once again, space and comfort for taller adults are not up to par with the Equinox, but there is enough space for people to endure shorter rides.
Technology
2026 Chevy Equinox: All 2026 Chevy Equinox models come with two larger displays that are easy to use on drives near Falcon. The first is the 11.0-inch reconfigurable digital gauge, while the other is the 11.3-inch central infotainment screen. The central touchscreen features Chevy's latest Google-based infotainment system.
2026 Toyota RAV4: The 2026 Toyota RAV4 features a smaller infotainment screen of 10.5 inches on most models. This system is fine, but not as convenient to use as the one the Equinox has. To use Google Maps and other Google features, you must connect your phone; you do not have to connect your phone in the Equinox to use these features.
2026 Honda CR-V: The 2026 Honda CR-V, similar to the Toyota, is not up to the same level as the Chevy. Its base infotainment screen is only 9.0 inches and does not offer as many features as the other two SUVs.
