2023 Equinox 2LT FWD impressions

[Tridentlord]

I am really impressed with then new Equinox 2LT FWD. Compared to my Bolt EV, it’s a whole different experience, roomier, more comfortable, and a smoother ride. I’m averaging 3.7 miles per kWh, even with the AC running in 90+ degree heat. I love the large screens and the overall efficiency, which exceeded my expectations.

Frankly, there are a few things I’m not fond of. The parking assist with braking keeps stopping me unexpectedly when backing out, and Google Maps tends to take me on unnecessary detours. The auto tailgate is a bit too sensitive as well, often activating when I’m just walking past it.

I’m really happy with the car regardless. It feels like the right choice compared to other EVs in its price range.

Same here! I didn't expect it. I have 450 miles on my RS with the large 21 rims, but it still rides really well and quietly. I also came from a Bolt EUV, and it's a whole new experience to have so much more space!

That’s great to hear. I’m really enjoying the extra space and smoother ride too. The larger screens are a bonus.

That is good to hear you like Equinox. The large screen is a good touch.
