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
