(January 24, 2024) DETROIT — Driving into the heart of the largest and most competitive segment in the industry, Chevrolet’s next-generation 2025 Equinox offers modern connectivity and new safety tech, wrapped in a head-turning design. Now every Chevy crossover and SUV, including Trax, Trailblazer, Blazer and the 2024 Traverse, is new or has been refreshed in the last two years.

Compared to the current vehicle, the new Equinox will offer more contemporary and differentiated choices — including larger screens, new safety features and Equinox’s first-ever outdoor-inspired trim, ACTIV.

“The 2025 Equinox brings to one of our most important nameplates body-lines and proportions inspired by our brand’s truck DNA, also adopted in the upcoming Traverse,” said Scott Bell, vice president, Chevrolet. “It also builds on the core strengths that have earned Equinox tremendous customer loyalty over the past two decades, and made it the second-best seller in our lineup, after Silverado.”

Chevrolet will offer Equinox in LT, RS and ACTIV trims, raising the level of standard content for all.


ACTIV brings a fresh persona to the redesigned Equinox, inspired by customers whose passions start where the pavement ends. Equinox ACTIV features a unique front fascia and styling cues that create and accentuate the off-road look, all-terrain tires, and an available white roof for a two-tone finish. Additional ACTIV content includes: rugged front fascia with vertical grille inserts and gray metallic-finished accents, blacked-out badging, 17-inch machined-face aluminum wheels, Maple Sugar and Black interior theme, with premium Evotex and sueded microfiber seating surfaces,  ACTIV embroidered on driver and passenger seat head restraints, and available heated and ventilated front seats and rear heated outboard seats, and memory driver seat personalization


The next-generation Equinox is eye-catching, with body-lines inspired by the strong proportions of the Chevy truck lineup and its larger sibling, the 2024 Traverse.

“This generation of Equinox has taken on a broad-shouldered, athletic appearance that conveys confidence and versatility,” said Phil Zak, executive design director, Global Chevrolet. “We leaned into distinct appearances and material selection for LT, RS and ACTIV so everyone can see themselves in an Equinox.”

The all-new Equinox is 2.3 inches wider than the outgoing model, enhancing its more planted stance.


A revamped interior conveys a more contemporary, spacious ambiance that, along with other recently introduced Chevy crossovers and SUVs, puts a stronger focus on technology and user experience.  



In front of the driver is an 11-inch-diagonal configurable driver information center. Layered against the driver information center and angled slightly toward the driver is the interior focal point — a new 11.3-inch-diagonal infotainment screen that’s more than 30% larger than the largest screen offered in the current model. It’s the gateway to music, media, maps and other connected services via Google built-in. The dashboard is pulled away, adding to the spacious interior.


Equinox debuts with a 1.5L Turbo engine that produces 175 horsepower and is matched with a continuously variable transmission in front-wheel-drive configurations, or an eight-speed automatic transmission with available all-wheel-drive. It's the same engine as the outgoing Equinox, but a six-speed automatic has been replaced by a continuously variable transmission on front drive models.

Equinox is trailering-capable, with a maximum capacity of up to 1,500 pounds when equipped with available AWD.

For the first time, Equinox offers RS and ACTIV customers driver-selectable modes, accessed via a rotator on the center console. The driver can select from Normal and Snow on FWD-equipped vehicles. AWD adds Off-Road mode. Drive modes adjust the propulsion system performance to best handle the conditions.


The 2025 Chevrolet Equinox will be available in 2024. Additional details, including pricing, will be available closer to the start of production.
