So was 2021 the last model year for the 2.0 in the Equinox/Terrian Joe?

We purchased a new 2022 Equinox Premier 1.5L Turbo DOHC 4-CYL drove it to Florida over 2,800 miles round trip, very pleased with the performance of the 1.5L Turbo, I was passing cars at speeds of 90 MPH on the freeway and it still had more to give, very impressed with the Chevrolet Equinox ride and comfort of the seats, we ordered this Equinox in June of last year and just received it on March 16th. 2022 during that time period Waiting I Was worried about the Equinox 1.5L being under powered because we were trading in a 2016 V-6 Impala which had plenty of power for passing, but the Equinox prove me wrong on all counts, we also averaged 27.3 miles per gallon average speed was 70 Miles per hour if you trust the car’s computer!!

I like the interior, clean & simple! You only need the screen big enough to operate the daily functions with the controls. I don't know why so many people are obsessed with the larger screens & infotainment centers. Do you really need that much distraction & entertainment on the road? It's just not me...lol. But everyone is different.

I like watching these videos and waiting for Joe to say how much food we can put in certain holders lol

I’m so glad I watch your reviews because I would have been very disappointed at the dealership. GM really missed their chance to finally be innovative.

The refresh on the outside look nice. I was seriously looking at getting an RS, but then GM got rid of the 2.0L Turbo, I immediately crossed it off my list. I cannot fathom paying an RS price for a rental car drivetrain/interior. For a few thousand more, I got a 2022 Durango GT V6/AWD.

Uggh, I have a soft spot for Chevy, was rooting for them but the interior looks cheap and dated. For a 2022 it looks like it already needs a new redesign, keep up the great videos Joe and Lori, Gold as usual

It's somehow a lot cheaper up here in Canada! (For once!) About 33k (CAD$) so about $26k USD for the AWD model (but without the sunroof) ... I love the way Joe goes into a review, as it makes it fun for me to compare the US model to the Canadian model ... Love my Equinox RS !

So glad you did this review! I had a 2016 equinox, totalled it, bought a 2015 and that's what I'll trade in soon. My wife has a 2020 and cannot get comfortable in it so the equinox was off my list...until I sat in the red RS at the auto show. Inwas so shocked at how comfortable I was, how much I liked it and the little refresh! This went from last on the list of next vehicle to the second choice, especially with the awd option. The Buick Envision is still first choice😆.

What I like about the Equinox ( refer Premier trim, is the 360 camera, the competition does not have this at this price level unless you go Nissan) also it is not a flashy car almost invisible but in premier is classy, space, enough power, enough tech, ventilated seats, all wheel drive, everything you want or need and nothing you dont..... Oh and a super imortant detail, no fake plastic like the Rav, crv and the rest on the fenders showing you are a tough outdoor guy............. This one keeps it clean and not trying so hard. An honest vehicle from Chevy... Thank you

Both engine are great, I had both of them, but I currently have the 2.0 turbo and that one has the 9 speed automatic, for towing heavier boats, the bigger engine is a must. I tow my 19 foot bay boat that weights 3000 pounds, and my car is capable of towing up to 3500 pounds which is very close to the limit, plus mine is a front wheel drive, but if I could, I would definitely get the all wheel drive version. I love my 2020 Chevy equinox, but the newer RS model looks really good 👍

I love how new this Equinox looks like. I see this, the 2.0T, the Premier (and on very occasional times, the Turbodiesel) wherever I go.

Thanks, based on your review of the CX-5, a new 22 CX-5 Carbon is sitting in my driveway. This is from a Chevy fan (C7 Z06 owner)

I actually prefer analog guages for revs and speed and then have a big 8-10 inch screen for everything else in the center. I think analog guages looks more precise but also gives depth and dimension instead of just a flat panel. I do like how BMW puts little chrome halos on their digital interment clusters. I really like the guages on my Camaro, it's the optional interment cluster with the bigger screen.

THANK YOU for doing this review! Awesome trim level and color, what a great choice

I do love the newer updates on the equinox on the 22 was looking at the premium online but not sure do love how the equinox looks we have an 18 acura TLX advance but also do love acura and Chevy also always love the videos joe

I recently got the RS trim level and went with Iron Gray Metallic. And it really compliments the android painted wheels. Even my sales guy was impressed with the color/appearance. I have the RS with AWD and the 5 standard safety features. Overall I am very impressed with the style and look of it. The smoked black chrome trim adds a very nice touch.

I've been driving a 2021 rental Equinox for about a month while my truck is in the shop (wrecked) and I now know why they sell so many of them. I've never been a GM fan but I'm lovin driving the Equinox. It's so silky smooth and easy and comfortable to drive. I'm finding that I'm coming up with errands I have to run just so I can drive it some more. I'm coming from a Toyota Tacoma but wow... It's like I'm driving a spaceship when I'm in the Chevy. I'm still sold on Toyota reliability but I'm going to stay away from the Chevy dealerships because it wouldn't be hard to talk me into buying a new Equinox.

I think the seat warmer at this time may not work due to the part supply issue for certain vehicles, however later this year GM will invite the vehicles affected by the supply issue to the dealerships to activate the seat warmers or the ventilated seat if applicable. Even in Canada we're affected by this supply chain issue. In fact the Equinox and GMC Terrain are manufactured at CAMI in Ingersoll, Ontario (under 2 hours west of YYZ). In fact your test vehicle's seat warmers are not installed until GM calls in on the parts for the activation of this feature.

Thank you for always putting out quality and in depth videos.

This blue is the perfect color for the Equinox, and the rims too. Bright interior would have been nice.

3:22 Something tells me that, as performance SUVs has become more and more of a thing, that RS will start to stand for something a little more significant and meaningful than just a appearance trim.

Joe. Does the Forward Facing Camera come Standard on All trim levels?

Does the sunroof open to let outside air in? Does it corner better or worse than the Rav4 and CR-V?

Needs the 2.0T, with an 8 spd, and AWD to be a compelling choice to me.

does the equinox 1.5l turbo suffer the same oil intrusion issues as the honda 1.5l turbo?

Just bought a 22 Equinox RS, first new car in 18 yrs. Had cavaliers before. I have had only 1 problem in the first 580 miles; high fuel consumption. Would have bee pleased with 23-25 miles per gallon, but 13.953 in a 179 mile freeway trip. Took it to dealer, no codes thrown could not duplicate. I used Shell 87 grade. Switched to Sunoco same grade and its almost at a quarter below full with 105 miles being driven. My "GHOST" name for vehicle was $33890. plus TX & Title. Will run a few more tankfuls, if same problem dealer said we will call in White Coats from GM. That's my only problem so far.

Hey Joe and Lori, and also the Raiti's Rides family, how are y'all doing today? 😬 Thanks Joe and Lori for this amazing review about the Chevrolet Equinox which was debuted in 2004 for the 2005 model at the iconic (for me) Detroit Auto show, anyways if you haven't told by my emoji I'm actually confused and thought that Chevrolet stop making this SUV long ago, I also I thought this was a new Buick 😬(and that's why I used this emoji). Anyway the Chevrolet Equinox is like the Toyota Rav-4 of Chevrolet, but it received a facelift for the 2022 model year (which was much needed) and it have a "sporty" trim that is the Rs (that's what Joe is presenting today) and if you have seen there Facebook post (should take a look, it's actually good), it shows that the "new" Chevrolet Equinox have a black leather seats with red stitching/accent. But to keep it "short" (lol short isn't in my dictionary) what is your favorite compact SUV: Maybe the Buick Encore, GMC Terrian Or the more popular compact SUVs like the Nissan Rogue, Toyota Rav-4, Honda CR-V, Hyundai Tucson, Kia Sportage, Ford Escape, Volkswagen Tiguan, Subaru Forester, Hyundai Kona, Hyundai kona electric (just an electric Kona), Ford Bronco Sport, or ect. Or maybe if have a bit more money to spend on a Luxury/Premium compact SUV like the: Mazda CX-5, Mazda CX-30, Acura MDX, Audi Q3, Jeep compass, Jeep Cherokee, Volvo XC40, Volvo XC40 recharge Pure (electric XC40), or ect.

I’ve purchased a 2022 LT for my wife she model love the new look

I like it I wish they had more outlets/home, in the cargo area as well as speakers.

Clean and simple, panaramic sunroof is a plus

Joe, The 2.0 4 cylinder was dropped after 2021 model. 1.5 is the only engine for 2022 & 2023 as combustion engine wraps up. 2024 Equinox is slated to be all electric. The gray wheels look good new, but will chip & scratch with mechanics. The Premier front looks better without gloss black that will look chipped up. Yes, you are right Equinox is only SUV without black plastic around wheels. That's why we're getting one this year, a Premier one in new color Seaglass blue.

Love the bowling ball reference.

This has been a bit of a stinker, lately. It has suffered considerable dependability issues...a lot of them. This the best looking Eq I've seen by far. I hope they can get this vehicle right. We NEED Chevy/GM to gat their "game face" back on.

Joe and Lori as always I love your reviews. You guys are the best. Maybe Lori could do some reviews, my wife thinks we need to see more of a woman's perspective and I agree. I have a dark blue 2019 FWD Equinox LT 1.5 with the 8 inch touchscreen, roofracks, heated seats etc that i puchased off my lease in December. It drives as well or better than my father in law's 2021 hybrid Rav 4. In fact my Nox feels more nimble Yes the interior has some hard plastic but his Rav 4 has hard plastic along the whole length of the upper door sills down to the armrest, then down to the lower door. He could only get Navigation if its paired to his phone. Guys, these are not high end cars plus plastic is used to reduce weight. Unfortunately GM did discontinue the 2.0 because the demand was so low. GM should bring back the 2.0 and I wish they had a hybrid version, although an all Electric Nox is coming next year. The oil consumption issue on Equinoxes was the last generation with a different motor.

My car was hit recently, and I have been put in a Chevrolet Equinox as a rental. I had to use UBER for transportation for rides before the Equinox came. One UBER ride was in a Honda Pilot. The Pilot felt like you were in something lightweight, and the ride was awful. The ride in the Equinox is smooth and quiet. I also do not feel like I am riding in something lightweight. The ride is very good, and the 1.5 liter engine moves the Equinox down the road very well. For my driving, I feel like the 2.0 engine would not be needed under my driving needs since the 1.5 does the job. The Equinox I have also does not have all wheel drive. I do not need all wheel drive where I live. The fuel economy has been 26 miles per gallon in combined city and highway. This is very good gas mileage, and the Equinox has quite a bit of room in it. I feel like it is a much larger mid size vehicle with the roominess of the larger mid size cars of the late 1970's to early 1980's. When the repairs to my car are complete, I will have to return the Equinox back to the rental company. I wish I could keep the Equinox, and may sell my car and buy one.

The '22 Equinox RS has plenty of sportiness for any active family. Chevrolet's design team is grossly underrated! AWD is a must for the rainy season! Excellent work from the J&L Team!

Is this the only version with leather seats?

My sister just leased a 22 equinox. Nice vehicle but the Tuscan runs rings around this....

The decontent special. When I got my 2018 Equinox the three engines were 1.6 diesel, 1.5 liter gas and 2.0 liter gas. I got the 1.6 liter diesel in LT 2 trim and AWD. It had the panorama sunroof and the 8" info screen with blind spot monitor in the mirrors. I had exterior door lock releases on all 4 doors now only 2. Now one engine which is punchless and gutless. No thanks

Love it. Got the awd with the Rs package. Best features are the comfort, hd screen, panoramic sun roof, heated steering and adaptive cruise control. I’ve been having so much fun. Can’t wait for the summer. Bikes fit easily in the back. No longer need a bike rack. Awd is amazing in the snow. My insurance monitors my driving so even with the 1.5 turbo, I still need to be careful. Plenty fast for me. One thing you missed is extra storage in the back if you don’t cover it with the weather proof covers. We always use it when we go shopping. Love your reviews, but they aways make me hungry for Twinkies.🤗

Love this SUV !
