2021 Chevy Equinox Reviews

The 2021 Chevy Equinox reviews are in, and the results shouldn’t surprise drivers who know the model’s history. This year it’s offering more than ever, building upon last year’s successes–and our neighbors near Camp Lejeune and Richlands are taking notice.
2021 Chevrolet Equinox Reviews: Performance
Those at Car & Driver were quick to point out how much fun it is to spend time behind the wheel of this SUV: “Agreeable and easy to drive, the Equinox handles competently, and its steering is accurate and direct.”
For those at the U.S. News, it was the power of the Equinox that deserved special attention: “…the horsepower rating from the larger engine is one of the highest in the class, bested only by a couple of Jeep models.”
2021 Chevrolet Equinox Reviews: Safety
Among all the safety-related Chevrolet Equinox reviews, none hold more weight than those from the experts at the NHTSA and the IIHS:
- The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gave the Equinox a 5-Star Overall Crash Test Rating.
- The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety selected the 2021 Equinox as a Top Safety Pick in 2020. They rated it as “Good” in all crash tests, and said that its accident avoidance and crash mitigation systems were “Superior”.
Ratings are one thing, but how has the Equinox measured up in the eyes of drivers? Kelley Blue Book lays it all out: “Last year the Chevy Equinox finally caught up to the competition with its suite of standard active-safety features. Now included are automatic emergency braking, forward-collision alert, lane-departure warning, and lane-keeping assist, plus IntelliBeam automatic headlights.”
2021 Chevrolet Equinox Reviews: Entertainment
Of course, not even the safest, most invigorating SUV would be complete without a suite of the latest and greatest technologies. Those at the U.S. News suggest that even entry-level Equinox trim levels are sure to satisfy:
- “The base model is a good choice, especially if you’re on a tighter budget. It comes standard with a well-equipped infotainment system and several active safety features. The Equinox LT is another solid pick as it’s the first trim to offer available amenities like leather seats, a larger touch screen, and navigation.”
Looking for a second opinion? In their own 2021 Chevy Equinox review, Car & Driver offers even more reasons to celebrate:
- “A 7.0-inch touchscreen (or optional 8.0-inch screen) displays Chevrolet’s MyLink infotainment interface atop the Equinox’s dash; the system continues to impress with its ease of use and quick responses. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility are standard, as are Bluetooth phone and audio streaming, USB connectivity, and an auxiliary input jack. Standard onboard Wi-Fi makes the Equinox one of the best-connected crossovers.”
