Meet the 2027 Chevrolet Equinox EV in Augusta, GA

The 2027 Chevrolet Equinox EV puts electric propulsion and a flexible two-row cabin into a compact SUV. It offers an electric alternative to the gasoline-powered Equinox for drivers who want room for passengers and their belongings without moving into a larger SUV.

Choosing an EV is about more than the drive itself. Consider your usual trips around Augusta, where you can plug in, and which cabin features will make the time between stops more comfortable. The 2027 Chevrolet Equinox EV specs and features give you plenty to consider, from adaptable cargo space to tools that put information within reach.

Compare the 2027 Chevrolet Equinox EV Trim Levels

The three 2027 Chevrolet Equinox EV trim levels provide distinct starting points, with packages that let you tailor the vehicle to your priorities. Rather than selecting a trim by name alone, consider the complete combination of appearance, comfort, and assistance features you want.

• LT 1: The available Midnight Package adds black exterior emblems, mirror caps, and black-painted wheels for a darker look
• LT 2: Available multicolor ambient interior lighting comes with the Convenience Package, adding another way to personalize the cabin
• RS: A wrapped flat-bottom steering wheel contributes to its distinctive interior; an available Red Package adds red hood and mirror accents and red wheel center caps

Some packages cannot be combined, and individual features may require other equipment. Review the full configuration if a particular detail is important to you.

A Passenger Ready Cabin

The Equinox EV seats five across two rows, with flexible space for passengers and their belongings. Its interior measurements include:

• Front legroom: 41.65 inches
• Second-row legroom: 38 inches
• Cargo space behind the second row: 26.4 cubic feet
• Maximum cargo space behind the front seats: 57.2 cubic feet

The standard 60/40-split rear seat lets you fold one section for a longer item while leaving room for a passenger, or fold both sections to make more room for cargo.

Comfort and Seating

The LT 1 has cloth seating. Evotex seating surfaces are included on the LT 2 with either Convenience Package and are standard on the RS. Single-zone automatic climate control is standard; dual-zone automatic climate control is available on the LT 2 and RS with Convenience Package II, letting the driver and front passenger select separate temperatures.

Heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and an eight-way power driver's seat are available on the LT 1 with the Comfort Package and require Active Safety Package 2. The equipment is included on the LT 2 with either Convenience Package and standard on the RS. For more comfort choices, Convenience Package II adds ventilated front seats and heated rear outboard seat cushions on the LT 2 and RS.

A standard floor console provides an armrest between the front seats. The LT 1 has a six-way manually adjustable driver's seat when the Comfort Package is not selected. On the LT 2 and RS, Convenience Package II adds a six-way power front passenger seat and driver memory presets for the power driver's seat and outside mirrors. These adjustments can make it easier for different drivers to find a preferred position.

Storage Options

The available cargo packages offer different ways to organize the rear area:

• Cargo Convenience Package: A vertical cargo net and cargo security shade
• Interior Storage Package: A cargo shelf with a divider and a foldable cargo organizer mat

Consider which arrangement fits the items you carry most often, and secure your load before driving.

Exterior Design With Design Choices

The Equinox EV combines SUV proportions with details that change from trim to trim. At 190.55 inches long and 76.94 inches wide with the mirrors folded, its dimensions are useful to check against your garage or a frequently used parking space. LED headlamps with daytime running lamps are standard.

The LT 1 and LT 2 have standard 19-inch wheels, while the RS comes with 21-inch black-painted aluminum wheels. The LT 2 can be equipped with 21-inch machined aluminum wheels through Convenience Package II. A center light bar and AutoSense hands-free power programmable liftgate are standard on the RS and included on the LT 2 with either Convenience Package; the LT 1 has a manual liftgate.

The RS has a standard black roof, subject to exterior color restrictions. A black or Summit White roof is available on the LT 2 with either Convenience Package. The Summit White roof includes white mirror caps and cannot be paired with Summit White exterior paint. LED taillamps are standard as well. On the LT 2 and RS, Convenience Package II adds headlamps with enhanced animation and walk-up lighting. Heated, power-adjustable outside mirrors are standard on the RS and included with either LT 2 Convenience Package. The mirrors fold manually, which can be useful when you need a little extra clearance.

Paint and interior combinations vary by trim. Polar White Tricoat and Radiant Red Tintcoat cost extra. An RS in Black requires the two-tone roof delete.

• White Sands
• Polar White Tricoat on RS
• Habanero Orange on RS
• Summit White on LT 1 and LT 2
• Black
• Riptide Blue Metallic on LT 1 and LT 2
• Radiant Red Tintcoat
• Sterling Gray Metallic

Electric Power for the Road Ahead

The Equinox EV uses an electric drive unit rather than a gasoline engine and conventional transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard, and dual-motor all-wheel drive is available across the lineup. On the LT 1, all-wheel drive requires the Comfort Package, which also requires Active Safety Package 2. Compare the full equipment combination when choosing the drivetrain that suits your needs.

The braking system includes regenerative capability, and a ride-and-handling suspension is standard. As you consider the move to electric driving, a test drive is a useful way to experience how the vehicle responds and become familiar with its controls. Think about the roads you travel most often and how the vehicle feels at the speeds and in the conditions you encounter regularly.

For light trailering, the Equinox EV can tow up to 1,500 pounds when properly equipped with the accessory hitch receiver. The Trailering Package is available on the LT 2 and RS; the LT 2 also requires the Convenience Package. Check the vehicle's equipment and loading limits before planning a trip with a trailer.

Technology That Keeps Useful Information in View

A large center display and a separate driver display organize the Equinox EV's information and connected functions. Google built-in compatibility includes navigation capability, connected apps, personalized profiles, and Natural Voice Recognition. A select service plan is required, and terms and limitations apply.

Five technology features worth exploring include:

• 17.7-inch center touchscreen: The standard display brings infotainment and compatible connected functions together in the center of the cabin
• 11-inch Driver Information Center: A standard display presents vehicle information ahead of the driver
• USB-C ports: Two front charge-and-data ports and two rear charge-only ports are standard for compatible devices
• Wireless Phone Charging: Standard on the RS and included on the LT 2 with either Convenience Package for a compatible phone
• Bose® premium eight-speaker audio: Available on the LT 2 and RS through Active Safety Package 3 and its required equipment

A Head-Up Display and Rear Camera Mirror are available on the LT 2 and RS with Convenience Package II. Super Cruise® hands-free driver assistance is available on those trims with Active Safety Package 3 and required equipment. Super Cruise operates on compatible roads and requires an active plan or trial; drivers must remain attentive and follow applicable laws. Service and system limitations apply.

Driver Assistance for Busy Roads

Chevy Safety Assist is standard on the Equinox EV, bringing together features designed to help the driver in certain situations. The following five assistance features are standard across the lineup:

• Enhanced Automatic Emergency Braking: Can assist with braking in certain potential forward-collision situations
• Front Pedestrian and Bicyclist Braking: Can help the driver respond to a detected pedestrian or bicyclist ahead
• Enhanced Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning: Can provide steering assistance and alerts for certain detected lane departures; Super Cruise replaces it when equipped
• Rear Cross Traffic Braking: Can assist with braking when cross traffic is detected while reversing
• Adaptive Cruise Control: Can adjust speed to help maintain a selected following gap from a detected vehicle ahead

HD Surround Vision is standard on the RS, included on the LT 2 with either Convenience Package, and available on the LT 1 with Active Safety Package 2 and the required Comfort Package. Its camera views provide another perspective during certain maneuvers.

Teen Driver is standard and offers configurable settings associated with a key fob, along with an in-vehicle report card that can help support conversations about driving habits. Rear child security door locks and child-restraint provisions are also standard. Consult the owner's manual and child-seat instructions for proper installation. Assistance features have limitations and do not replace attentive driving or checking your surroundings.

2027 Chevrolet Equinox EV Electric Range and Charging

The right charging routine depends on your daily mileage and access to a compatible power source. When comparing electric range, consider your expected trips and the drivetrain you choose. Actual range varies with factors such as temperature, driving habits, conditions, and vehicle use.

The Equinox EV is capable of AC charging at up to 11.5 kW and includes a portable Dual Level Charge Cord with 120-volt and 240-volt capability. Charging speed depends on the power source and equipment. Before selecting a home setup, consider the electrical service available and whether an installation is needed.

An available Level 2 and Fast Charging Adapter Package includes a GM J1772 AC Adapter and a GM CCS1 DC Adapter for compatible charging equipment. For travel beyond your usual routine, plan charging stops along the route and check station and adapter compatibility before leaving.

The available Charging Essentials Package combines those adapters with a GM PowerUp 2 home charger. It is a separate choice from the Level 2 and Fast Charging Adapter Package, and installation is not included. Review the electrical and installation requirements with a qualified professional before choosing home equipment.
