    Maximizing the 2024 Equinox EV Towing Capacity

    This is really helpful, I'm learning new things about the Equinox EV. I especialy appreciate the tip about the 80% charge limit for mountain driving, that's something I wouldn't have considered. Thanks for sharing these details

    Equinox EV rear window control glitch

    Hey Equinox EV 2RS owners, I've discovered a strange issue with the rear window controls from the driver's seat. During a stereo upgrade, my installer noticed that pressing the rear driver's side window button does nothing, but pressing the rear passsenger side button opens both rear windows...

    Favorite feature on Equinox EV

    I'm really interestd in the Equinox EV's tech, particularly the big screen and Google integration. I'm curious how seamless it makes things like navigation. But the cargo space is also a big plus for me, and I love the design, especialy the front light bar. Which feature are you most excited about?

    Is RS AWD with SuperCruise worth the hype?

    It's definitely a cool feature, but it's important to remember that it's still an advanced driver-assistanc system, not full autonomy. I've been thinkng about the limitations of these systems. You'll still need to be attentive and ready to take over. It's great for reducing fatigue on long...

    Anyone here tested regen on vs. off at highway speeds?

    I've been curious for a while, starting with my old ID.4, whether enabling regen at highway speeds improves or reduces range. From what I noticed, turning it off seemed to let the car "coast," and the kWh usage increased slightly. However, I don’t have solid data to confirm that. However, on my...

    Anyone Else Notice Missing Wireless Charging

    They shouldn’t have advertised it if they weren’t planning to include it. It’s odd they couldn’t make this happen, especially since it doesn’t seem like a difficult feature to add, my phone charger at home works perfectly. Plus, with all the other advanced features like the 360 parking camera...

    Rock damage on my Equinox EV

    I ran into a heavy hailstorm on the first night of a road trip to western Nebraska, and ended up with several small dents on the hood and roof. I was told it's fixable, but the body shops around here are booked for months. I’ve filed a claim and have an appointment set for the end of this month

    Unexpected Range Reading on My Equinox EV

    Your driving style plays a big role in how efficiently the car uses energy and impacts the predicted range. Howevr, it's always an estimate based on past driving patterns. For example you might see high range numbers when driving in the city but once you hit the highwy the battery can deplete...

    Kayak rack for Equinox EV

    You can add aero cross-bars to your Equinox EV’s fixed rails, either from GM or later from Thule/Yakima. Aero bars add minimal drag and my wife and I remove ours seasonaly. For kayaks just grab a compatible carrier clamp it on and you’re ready to go

    Chevy Equinox EV range differences

    Yeah, bigger rims definitely hurt range. 21-inch wheels are heavy and increase rolling resistance which uses more energy. AWD also uses more power than just front-wheel drive, so that's another thing to consider. It's all about finding the right balance between performance and efficiency

    The car started by itself

    Hey everyone! Today, I put some items on the front seat of my Equinox, and the car started by itself. This has happened before. I turned it off, got out, and it started again. I turned it off again, but it didn’t shut down until the 1-minute timer expired. I checked the manual but found nothing...

    Equinox EV range question

    I think you're right about the 19" wheels on the FWD trims for the official range numbers. As for the 21" wheels, the range drop could be similar to what Tesla's seen but exact numbers may vary. I haven’t seen official confirmation yet on the specific test setup though

    Battery Longevity

    I agree with the above post, and from what I understand, eight years seems to be a fairly conservative estimate.
