Engine Options

The Chevy Equinox gives you the choice between three engines, and for 2018, all three are turbocharged. Let’s take a look at their performance numbers:

  • 1.5L Turbo Four-Cylinder Engine – The Equinox crossover’s standard engine gets 170 hp and 203 lb-ft of torque. Fuel economy is competitive at 32 mpg highway with front-wheel drive.
  • 1.6L Turbo-Diesel Engine – For enhanced efficiency and acceleration, you can upgrade to this turbocharged diesel engine. It gets 137 hp, 240 lb-ft of torque, and Chevy estimates that it will reach 40 mpg highway with front-wheel drive. This engine will be available in late summer of 2017.
  • 2.0L Turbo Four-Cylinder Engine – With 252 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque, this engine offers the highest performance figures in the lineup. The EPA estimates its fuel economy at 29 mpg highway with front-wheel drive, and its expected availability is summer 2017

Available Performance Features

The Equinox includes a number of features that make driving in Calumet City and Homewood convenient. A switchable all-wheel drive system can be added to all trim levels except the L, and it allows you to change to all-wheel drive on the fly when you encounter difficult road conditions. It’s a must have for Chicagoland winters. When you’re done using all-wheel drive, switch it off for improved fuel economy. In addition, the upgraded 2.0L turbocharged engine provides a tow/haul mode, which adjusts the transmission to compensate for heavy loads.
