This popular midsize SUV is designed for car-like handling. An all-independent suspension ensures good ride and handling. The base powertrain is a 2.4L four-cylinder, allowing FWD models to turn in respectable EPA rating of 21/30 (city/highway). A small-displacement 3.0L V6 is also available.

What Changed:

Chevy restyled the Equinox for the 2010 model year. The updated model is roughly the same size, but features new exterior and interior designs. A 2.4L four-cylinder becomes the new base engine, but the output is very close to that of last year's 3.4L V6. The four cylinder pays dividends with a dramatically improved fuel economy rating of 21/30 for FWD four-cylinder models. An optional 3.0L V6 offers 255-bhp and improved fuel economy
