Chevrolet Equinox Review
Revised in 2010.
The Chevrolet Equinox has been revised for 2010. Making it the second-generation crossover SUV. Although the size is more like a midsize SUV, Equinox prices and characteristics of a compact SUV, but not yet with some luxury amenities and technology provides in its price class.
The new version of Equinox is about the same size as its predecessor. But it is in and out of different styles and two new engines. The base engine is an improved version of the 2.4 liter four-cylinder drove the latest model. Thank you to direct injection, is now the most powerful fuel and first class, 32 mpg on the highway. Lots of sound insulation is quieter than most of the four cylinders.
Equinox is also available with a 3.0-liter V6 that offers a 3.6-liter V6 replaced. A similar performance figures to 264 horsepower, but it feels much less efficient than the V6 it replaces more. In fact, we do not think he feels much stronger position of the four cylinders, so we think that the basic engine is the best choice.
The new Equinox manages better than its predecessor. 'S more than the voltage of the vehicle pre-2010 models with less lean alternately. It is not sporty, but is tied with its main competitors, such as the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4. The race is also very good. We found that both the standard 17 - or 18-inch wheels available, the equinox even strong shocks absorbed without interrupting passenger comfort.
