Key Features of the 2027 Chevrolet Equinox

11.3" diagonal infotainment touchscreen

The 11.3" diagonal infotainment touchscreen is one of the defining features of the 2027 Chevrolet Equinox, and it immediately gives the cabin a more advanced, driver-focused feel. Chevrolet designed this large, personalized display to keep your digital world within reach, whether you are using maps, music, messages, compatible apps, or vehicle settings. Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility help bring familiar smartphone functions into the cabin, while seamless OnStar connectivity adds another layer of convenience and support. Voice commands are especially useful because you can access key functions while keeping attention on the road ahead. Available wireless phone charging helps reduce cord clutter and keeps your compatible device powered during busy days. The screen placement, size, and clarity make the Equinox feel modern without being complicated, which matters for shoppers who want technology that is helpful rather than distracting. From quick errands to longer Montana drives, this infotainment system helps make the Equinox feel organized, connected, and easy to use.

Chevy Safety Assist and over 15 standard safety and driver assistance features

The 2027 Chevrolet Equinox comes with over 15 standard safety and driver assistance features, giving shoppers meaningful confidence before adding optional upgrades. A major part of that safety foundation is Chevy Safety Assist, a package of six advanced features that includes Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Forward Collision Alert, Following Distance Indicator, and IntelliBeam®. These systems are designed to support awareness and assist in specific driving situations, from helping you maintain lane position to alerting you when traffic ahead may require attention. Front Pedestrian Braking can help in certain situations when a pedestrian is detected ahead, while Forward Collision Alert and Following Distance Indicator help you better understand space and closing speed. IntelliBeam® can automatically manage high beams in appropriate conditions. Available safety and driver assistance features such as HD Surround Vision, Side Bicyclist Alert, Rear Camera Mirror, and Rear Cross Traffic Braking can add further confidence. As always, these technologies support attentive driving but do not replace the need to stay alert and in control.

1.5L Turbo engine with Drive Mode Selector

Every 2027 Chevrolet Equinox uses an efficient 1.5L Turbo engine that produces 175 hp and 203 lb.-ft. of torque, giving the SUV a smooth, responsive character for daily driving. This engine is well matched to the Equinox because it provides confident acceleration for merging, passing, and climbing grades while maintaining an easygoing feel around town. The standard Drive Mode Selector adds versatility by allowing you to tailor vehicle response to changing road surfaces and driving needs. That can be especially useful in a region where paved streets, rural routes, gravel access roads, and elevation changes may all be part of a normal week. The Equinox is not trying to be oversized or overly aggressive; instead, it focuses on usable performance that feels right in real life. Steering, power delivery, and cabin comfort work together to create a composed driving experience. For shoppers who want an SUV that is practical during the week and flexible on days off, the powertrain and drive mode technology make a strong impression.

Available all-wheel drive and up to 1,500 lbs. towing

Available all-wheel drive gives the 2027 Chevrolet Equinox traction on demand, making it a smart choice for drivers who want added confidence when roads become less predictable. Chevrolet pairs this capability with the Equinox’s balanced size and responsive turbocharged engine, so the SUV remains easy to maneuver while still feeling prepared for changing conditions. All-wheel drive can be particularly helpful when driving across varied Montana terrain, heading to a trailhead, navigating rural roads, or simply wanting extra grip during daily travel. The Equinox also offers up to 1,500 lbs. of towing when properly equipped, allowing you to bring along a small trailer, compact utility trailer, or lightweight recreational gear when needed. This is not a large towing SUV, but that is part of its appeal: it gives you useful light-duty capability without the bulk of a larger vehicle. If your lifestyle includes errands during the week and extra gear on the weekend, the Equinox’s available all-wheel drive and towing capability add meaningful versatility.

Versatile cargo space and distinctive design

The 2027 Chevrolet Equinox is designed to look confident while staying practical. Its exterior features a distinctive grille, model-specific front fascia designs, sculpted taillamps, all-LED lighting, and a confident stance that gives the SUV a modern appearance from every angle. The LT has a clean, versatile character, the RS adds bolder details such as black mirrors, moldings, emblems, badging, standard 19" wheels, available 20" machined wheels, and a flat-bottom steering wheel, while the ACTIV leans into a more adventure-ready personality with all-terrain tires, uniquely-tuned suspension, and Evotex and sueded microfiber seating surfaces. Available two-tone roof combinations add another way to personalize the SUV, with exterior color options such as Sterling Gray Metallic, Mosaic Black Metallic, Lakeshore Blue Metallic, Reef Blue Metallic, Radiant Red Tintcoat, and Polar White Tricoat depending on model availability. Inside, the cargo area is built for real life, with flexible space for shopping bags, golf clubs, luggage, backpacks, tools, or family gear. The result is an SUV that looks sharp and works hard.
