The Mazda CX-5 is good too, as well as the GMC Terrain, which is the same vehicle but a step more upscale. This Equinox feels bigger inside and outside but actually has a few less cubic feet of cargo space overall. In this realm, I like the Ford Escape a little better. The Chevy does have buttons for tune forward and back though, and thankfully they actually just switched channels and not bounced from favorite to favorite like many cars. The Chevrolet's SmartLink touchscreen is quick to react and there is a knob for volume, but not tuning. The interior is Chevy-simple black and gray, and everything is laid out neatly. The average indicated was always over 30 mpg, and I drove how I normally drive, which is relatively fast. Unloading them was still a pain in the ass, but that’s not the Equinox’s fault. On Saturday we hauled a ton of boxes of varying sizes and they all fit, with a little wiggling.

When will they install a forward-facing, rear-mounted screen for rear-facing toddlers! Kidding, that's a terrible idea. had stuff to look at all the way home, as opposed to just the fronts of the back seats. I folded down the non-childseat side, threw some meats, veggies and plants in and and Road Test Editor Jr. I started out picking up some cargo from our little local market in downtown Detroit.
I don’t love the styling, but it is perfectly sized for the kind of weekend errands most of us do - which in my case included carting the boy and childseat around in the rear seat.
It only makes 137 hp but brings 240 lb-ft of torque along with it, which makes for a seriously punchy little SUV. Our Opinion: The most exciting thing about this Equinox is its teeny turbodiesel. Many Equinox models suffer from vehicle movement while in park and a false illumination of the malfunction indicator lamp.
