The 2022 Chevrolet Equinox series are therefore available in the auto galleries of the leading sellers like the La Grange Chevrolet dealership and are already winning the hearts of the onlookers.
The recent 2022 model year release brought the Chevrolet Equinox models with a slight refreshing design touches at the exterior, upgraded the interior with some new convenience features, while the lineup welcomes a new trim level called RS.
At the power front, the 2.0L turbo-4 engine departs from the existing lineup and made way for the 170-hp making 1.5L turbo-4 engine that is famous for scoring good fuel economy rates.
Improved Ride Quality
The interior cabins of the 2022 Chevrolet Equinox compact crossover SUV series happen to be a mixed bag of goodies. The space inside the cabin is abundant, while the new features added to the existing ones heightened the level of ride comfort in each of its trim levels.
However, the biggest highlight in the 2022 model year edition of the Chevrolet Equinox series is the introduction of the new RS trim, which makes a compelling choice for the compact crossover buyers with its near-perfection performance standards.
Serving a Better Purpose
Chevy’s decision to drop the base L trim from its last year lineup surely had a definite purpose. According to some known auto experts and critics, it was to encourage people to buy the sporty RS trim, while offering the rest four trims named the LS, LT, RS, and Premier. From the other angle, one can see Chevrolet aiming to serve a greater purpose of fulfilling the aims of the buyers in a more clear-cut manner. You can either go for a fuel-economy trim, by choosing the now-base trim, the LS that will fetch you an EPA rating of 26 mpg on the city roads, 31 mpg on the highways, and 28 mpg from a journey that combines both. The LS trim can be better equipped with the available Convenience package that will add up to the cabin an 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat along with a two-way power lumbar support, a 4.2-inch color display for the infotainment screening, and deep-tint for the rear glass.
For the year 2022, the Chevrolet Equinox models will use only the 1.5L turbo four-cylinder engine to deliver 170 hp and 203 lb-ft. of torque, when coupled with a six-speed automatic gearbox. This standard powertrain also includes the FWD setup, while you can get an AWD version as a payable option.
Handling the 2022 Chevrolet Equinox has become much more refined than ever before where the crossover listens to each of your driving inputs, almost instantaneously. Cornering the 2022 Chevrolet Equinox is now a breeze while the engine can also deal with bumpy roads, without much grumbling. The courtesy for this appreciable performance goes to the 19-inch wheel rims, while the feature options offered in each of its trims, make the 2022 Chevrolet Equinox a useful travel partner, commented a recent buyer of this model from our long-trusted Chevrolet La Grange dealership.
