The Chevrolet Equinox is targeted at family shoppers interested in strong value from a compact crossover that tends towards the larger side of the equation. The five-passenger Equinox is available with either a 2.4-litre, four-cylinder engine under the hood (putting out 182 horsepower) or, new for 2013, an optional 301 horsepower, 3.6-litre V6. A six-speed automatic transmission is standard with the Chevrolet SUV, and all-wheel drive is also available.
