The ACTIV trim stands out with 17-inch Dark Android machined-face aluminum wheels, all-terrain tires, roof rails, LED headlamps and taillamps, heated outside mirrors, rain-sensing windshield wipers, heated wiper park, and an AutoSense Power Liftgate. Finished in Radiant Red Tintcoat, this Equinox delivers a bold appearance that attracts attention from Clearwater to downtown Tampa.
Inside, the unique Maple Sugar interior creates a warm and premium atmosphere that helps separate the ACTIV from ordinary compact SUVs. Premium Evotex and sueded microfiber seating surfaces, heated front bucket seats, an 8-way power driver's seat with 2-way power lumbar adjustment, a heated steering wheel, wireless charging, dual-zone automatic climate control, a universal home remote, remote start, and keyless open and start provide comfort and convenience throughout every drive.
Technology is highlighted by an 11.3-inch touchscreen featuring Google Built-In and an 11-inch Driver Information Center.

The AWD RS is a beautiful SUV inside and out. It is modern and has the technology that everyone needs at a great price. The ride quality is one of the best of any cars in the field. The seats are comfortable and adjusted for every rider. Is the engine the fastest no, but is all the vast majority of people need. - 5.0
Great car for the value.

I had a Toyota SUV before, but it was totaled. The handling for it was nice, but the Equinox 26 is far more comfortable. I'm 6'2", and there's plenty of room for me to get around in. I did a lot of shopping around and the options that came with it couldn't be beaten for the price. I've had it a little less than a year, but I've only driven it around 2500 miles. I got the CVT transmission and it has been extremely smooth in shifting gears due to it's design. The engine is small, which likely contributes to the bad gas mileage some people report getting. I live in a rural area and get about 32 mpg on average with me going light on the gas pedal. When I'm on the interstate, I get around 35 mpg, up to my max of almost 38 mpg. I use the adaptive cruise control as much as possible and not speeding up hard or braking much. The engine has a nice little hum to it and isn't loud. It gets up to speed fast enough, when I need it. I can even spin the tires a bit, if I try to take off too fast. I didn't have any problems with the sound system, but I went in and fiddled with all the settings in the very beginning. This might help some people out who are having sound issues. The only problem I've had with mine was a very small oil leak, which is likely due to me not getting the oil changed soon enough. I believe they said the oil plug gasket was being replaced just in case, and it hasn't leaked since. For now, I'd still get the car again. Here's to hoping I don't get some of the issues others have.
