The verdict

What's good

One of the cheapest electric SUVs
Real 300-plus-mile cruising range
Spacious, airy, modern cabin
Smooth and quiet around town

What's not

Front-drive can spin in the wet
Charging slower than rivals on trips
Heavy, so it leans in corners
Most controls live in the screen

The engine

Single Electric Motor

Single Electric Motor (FWD)

A single front-mounted motor delivers easy, quiet, immediate torque tuned for comfortable everyday driving rather than performance theatrics.

The Equinox EV rides on GM's Ultium platform and uses Ultium battery packs shared across GM's electric lineup, positioned as an affordable mainstream EV.

Front-wheel-drive single-motor versions deliver well over 300 miles of EPA-estimated range.
Its onboard charger can add roughly 30 or more miles of range per hour on a 240-volt Level 2 connection.
DC fast charging can add around 70 miles of range in about ten minutes.
