The All-New 2026 Chevrolet Equinox

The 2026 Equinox delivers solid performance and smooth handling, making daily drives feel more enjoyable and weekend trips feel easy. Every model comes equipped with a 1.5L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, offering 175 horsepower and 203 lb-ft of torque. The engine is paired with a front-wheel-drive CVT on base configurations or an available 8-speed automatic transmission for all-wheel drive setups. The AWD models also feature a 3.47 final drive ratio for improved traction when the weather turns.

Despite its practical size, the Equinox doesn’t skimp on capability. With available all-wheel drive, you’ll feel confident no matter what Ohio roads throw your way, be it rain, snow, or gravel. The standard Drive Mode Selector allows drivers to switch between modes like Normal and Sport, giving you greater control based on your terrain or driving preference.

Fuel economy remains a highlight. While final EPA estimates are still pending, the turbocharged setup is designed to deliver efficiency without compromising on responsiveness – something Equinox fans have come to rely on over the years.

Need to tow a light trailer or haul extra gear for a weekend away? When properly outfitted with the available Class II Trailering Package, the 2026 Equinox can tow up to 1,500 lbs, giving you just the right amount of muscle for boats, bikes, or a small camper.

ACTIV models come with 17-inch all-terrain tires and a uniquely tuned suspension, offering added grip and composure on backroads or trails. Meanwhile, Drive Mode Selector helps the Equinox adjust to a variety of surfaces and conditions, allowing you to take on slippery roads or sportier drives with confidence.

Whether you’re commuting from Circleville or exploring routes near Wilmington, the 2026 Equinox balances comfort and utility effortlessly.

Step inside and you’ll see how Chevrolet has elevated the cabin across the entire lineup. Premium finishes like contrast stitching and available Evotex with suede inserts on ACTIV trims add a level of sophistication that rivals luxury SUVs. The center console has been redesigned with a smart passthrough layout – ideal for stashing bags, drinks, and everyday must-haves.

In terms of space, the Equinox continues to impress. With up to 63.5 cubic feet of cargo volume, folding rear seats, and underfloor storage in the rear, you’ve got room to haul groceries, strollers, golf bags, and more without breaking a sweat.

Families will appreciate thoughtful touches like sliding sun visors, heated front seats, and dual-zone automatic climate control available on most trims. With seating for five and a cabin built for flexibility, this SUV handles real-life needs with ease whether you’re navigating a morning school drop-off or packing up for a weekend in Hillsboro.

Chevrolet gave the 2026 Equinox a more assertive stance and sharper details. Each trim features its own distinct grille and front fascia design, making it easy to tell them apart at a glance. The RS model sports black accents, moldings, and optional two-tone paint with a black roof for added street appeal. ACTIV turns heads with its rugged styling, all-terrain tires, and available Summit White roof.

LED lighting comes standard across the lineup, including signature daytime running lights and available LED fog lamps. Wheel designs range from 17-inch machined-face aluminum to bold 19-inch blacked-out options, depending on trim.

Color options for 2026 are as expressive as the Equinox itself. Choose from Summit White, Polar White Tricoat, Radiant Red Tintcoat, Sterling Gray Metallic, Lakeshore Blue Metallic, and Cacti Green. A few colors like Polar White and Radiant Red may be premium paint options, but they add a truly head-turning look that makes this SUV your own.

Technology takes the spotlight in the 2026 Equinox. All trims come equipped with a standard 11.3-inch infotainment touchscreen – one of the largest in its class – alongside an 11-inch Driver Information Center. With Google built-in, plus wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility, your music, maps, and messages are always just a touch or voice command away.

Wireless charging is available, and with OnStar® services and 5G connectivity, staying connected on the go has never been easier.

As for safety, Chevrolet never holds back. Over 15 advanced safety and driver-assist features are included as standard, with Chevy Safety Assist at the core. That includes:

• Automatic Emergency Braking

• Forward Collision Alert

• Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning

• Following Distance Indicator

• Front Pedestrian Braking

• IntelliBeam automatic high beams

You’ll also find peace of mind with available features like Reverse Automatic Braking, Side Bicyclist Alert, and an HD Surround Vision camera, perfect for navigating tight parking lots in downtown Washington Court House.

Ideal for those with a love for the outdoors, the ACTIV model includes 17-inch all-terrain tires, a specially tuned suspension, roof rails, and sueded microfiber seating. The interior features a rugged yet refined design, with details like ACTIV-stitched headrests and an intuitive center console built for storage on the move.

The RS brings a sporty edge with bold black accents, 19-inch Carbon Flash wheels, and a flat-bottom steering wheel. Inside, red contrast stitching and a clean, modern layout create an athletic vibe. It also includes Convenience Packages I & II for premium creature comforts like remote start, a power liftgate, and dual-zone climate control.

A smart choice for families and professionals alike, the LT balances function and value with standard heated front seats, adaptive cruise control, and an impressive suite of safety tech. The 11-inch digital display, 8-speed transmission, and quiet cabin make this trim a standout for daily use.

Want something a little bolder? The Midnight Edition package for LT models dresses the Equinox in all black – black wheels, roof rails, grille, and bowties – for a stealthy, upscale look that never goes unnoticed.

With its refined design, practical layout, and suite of smart safety features, the 2026 Chevrolet Equinox adapts to your schedule, your crew, and your next stop. No matter where the day takes you.
