There’s good reason to check out the 2021 Chevy Equinox. This is a compact SUV that is just the right size for a family and gets good gas mileage while featuring comfort, safety, and user-friendly systems we know you’ll love. We have what you need to know.
User-Friendly Infotainment
The intuitive infotainment system is one of the chief features of this great little SUV. The standard trim comes with a 7-inch screen, and you can upgrade to an 8-inch screen on higher trims. Other available upgrades include a rear-seat entertainment system, a premium Bose sound system, HD radio, wireless charging for your devices, and up to six USB ports, so all the kids can stay connected and charged up.
But whether you stick to the standard trim or go up to a higher one, you’ll find this a great system to use. It’s compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and there are no worries about fiddling with buttons you can’t easily reach or understand. Everything here is clear and easy to use.
Comfortable Seating for Five
Some compact SUVs skimp on the backseat room on the theory that only kids will be sitting back there. That doesn’t work if you want to take some friends along, and it definitely doesn’t work once the kids start getting a bit taller and the complaining begins. The Equinox can save you here.
There’s really enough room for five, and even tall adults will manage with the generous legroom in the back. Shoulder and headroom are ample, as well. And for you, the driver’s seat is soft and supportive.
Excellent Fuel Economy
Families always need to find ways to save, and that’s a big draw for this year’s Equinox. The Equinox delivers 26mpg for city driving and 31mpg on the highway. The tank is just shy of 15 gallons, meaning you can go more than 400 miles before you’ll have to stop for a fill-up.
With that much range, comfortable seats, and a rear entertainment system for the kids, those Thanksgiving drives to Grandma’s house just got a whole lot easier!
Attention to Safety
The Equinox comes with lots of standard safety features that you’ll appreciate, like a rearview camera, automatic emergency braking, and lane-keep assist. There are advanced safety features available on higher trims or different packages, like cross-traffic alert, rear parking sensors, and more.
Perhaps the best thing, though, is the Teen Driver safety feature. This allows you to set speed limits and audio volume when your teen is behind the wheel and then monitor their progress to help them become safe, competent drivers.
The 2021 Equinox is the perfect choice for families. There’s plenty of space, the infotainment options are easy to use, the safety systems put your needs first, and it gets good mileage even when fully loaded with people and their stuff. This could be just the SUV you’re looking for. Browse our full available inventory for the right Chevy for you, and come see us at Randy Wise Chevrolet today!
