If you’re looking for a well-rounded SUV that can perform well in dense urban driving environments, as well as maximize efficiency on long-range trips, the 2025 Chevy Equinox is a fantastic option. This revamped small SUV has dynamic performance capabilities, intuitive safety technology, and customizable infotainment technology to meet all of your needs.
Three Versatile Features of the 2025 Chevy Equinox
1. Google Built-In
One of the most versatile features of the Equinox LT is the standard Google Built-In technology, which gives drivers access to an incredible amount of infotainment options. Google Built-In comes with standard access to the Google Assistant, a system that can respond to voice commands to adjust in-cabin settings, such as switching playlists, checking your calendar, or asking for directions.
With Google Built-In, drivers can customize their on-road entertainment by downloading apps from the Google Play Store, such as YouTube Music, Spotify, Audible, and more. This advanced Google-supported infotainment system also provides access to Google Maps, which has advanced GPS data that can identify points of interest while you’re driving so you can find gas stations and restaurants along your route. The Google Built-in system is managed on an 11.3-inch infotainment scene.
2. Automatic Emergency Braking
One of the core safety features of the all-new Equinox LT is the Automatic Emergency Braking system, which is part of the Chevy Safety Assist suite of driver-assistance technology. This feature uses forward-facing sensors to identify potential collisions with the vehicle ahead or other obstacles in all types of driving situations. This feature highlights its versatility, with built-in software to identify bicyclists and pedestrians in front of the vehicle to maximize your urban driving safety.
3. Turbocharged Engine
The Equinox LT is equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine that performs well in all driving conditions. This spry motor offers an output of 175 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. The LT has a standard front-wheel drivetrain that gives the SUV a maximum towing capacity of 800 lbs, but if you upgrade to an AWD drivetrain, the towing capacity increases to 1,500 lbs.
The versatility of this SUV’s performance is supported by the continuously variable-speed automatic transmission, which smoothly glides through gears at low and high speeds so you can enjoy sporty acceleration and responsiveness.
The refreshed 2025 Equinox is a dream SUV for small families and active drivers thanks to dynamic engineering and infotainment features. Take this versatile model out for a test drive when you drop by Van Bortel Chevrolet in Macedon, NY.
