We hope you all enjoyed the FIRST in-depth review on the all-new 2018 Equinox on UA-cam! Let us know what you think about the redesigned Chevy Equinox in the comments below, and remember you saw it first on Car Confections!!
I have a 2014 Equinox with the 3.6 engine (301 horsepower). These 2018 models will definitely be underpowered!!!! I hope president Trump reduces the strict CAFE requirements so vehicles can have some real power.
coniacman it's 400 lbs lighter. I'll bet the new 2.0 turbo is a lot quicker than your V6.
coniacman it might be a little faster than the new 2.0L but you're forgetting (or just dont care) about the horrendous fuel economy. isn't it like 17mpg
I love chevys new products. like the older equinox was trash but this is pretty good and the new traverse is gonna look good too. team GM all the way
This video was exactly what I needed. Knowing the different trims really helped.
Glad to hear it! Thanks for watching!
it actually just arrived at my dealership today. So will have to go and check it out in person. It seems Chevy has done it right and nice to see what is now standard features.
I have a 2018 LT love it drives good Lots of room and love the heated seats, and backup viewing camera
I've watched so many of your reviews for this class. You do an amazing job! Thanks
Thanks so much Brian! Haha, we're glad you enjoy them :)
What a great improvement over the previous Equinox models. We have a 2010 model and it has been a solid car for us maybe time to take a look at the 2018 model or move up to the Traverse for 2018. These reviews are top notch and seem certain to be much better than you get from a sales person. Thanks for taking the time to do reviews right.
Thanks!
just brought the 2017 equinox premium 2 months ago. I like a bit here and there from both models
This is my favorite SUV! Amazing job bro.
keep up the good work chevy
great video guys!!! appreciate how fast you got it. I like the new equinox a lot (besides for the price). like to see how it compares to CRV
+Franklin Hanbelt Thanks Franklin! We will definitely review a CR-V if we can get our hands on one!
The CVT ruined the CRV
great review!
Thanks!
Really a very nice comprehensive walk-around review. Thanks!
+AtomBoy We are glad you liked it! Thanks for watching!
Sweet! Can't wait to get my hands on one too!
3 years from then?
I seen one in person and it was nice
Looks Very Good 😊
You forgot the volume and station scrolling paddles behind the wheel.
I just bought one of the LT's with the 2.0 Turbo. It has awesome pickup!
What's the 0-60MPH time and top speed with that engine?????
I got the chance to sit in one that I'm considering buying kinda expensive but I'm still thinking about it but shopping around some more
Nice job!
+J. Marr Thanks!
the I'm considering getting one. trying to decide between equinox and the sorrento. I thought I had made up my mind on the sorento but now I'm not so sure
I went and looked at this and the crv and they're both really big improvements I don't know which I prefer but definitely these over the rav4
I agree with you. I test drove the 17 CR-V on Christmas Eve, the RAV4 and RAV4 Hybrid on New Years Eve and the 18 Equinox AWD Premier this past Friday.
The CR-V in AWD Touring guise comes packed to the gills with technology including Adaptive Cruise Control and looks upscale and beefier than its prior gen. predecessors. The RAV4 really is only worth it if one opts for the Hybrid. The regular RAV4 offers "fair" fuel economy - at best, IMO. The CR-V is, overall, the better value of these 3 but the 18 Equinox AWD Premier with the base 1.5L 170 HP Turbo has excellent pick up. It really scoots when you put the pedal down.
Unfortunately, the Equinox also includes premium pricing and the option packages are ridiculous. In order to get the sunroof, you have to opt for the "Sun, Sound and Navigation Package" which includes 19" wheels and MyLink with Navigation. I'd opt for it anyway but, really? GM quite often packages their vehicles in this way, shoving nearly $2k wheels at us when 18" wheels are sufficient. If I had to choose right now, I'd be between the 2017 CR-V AWD Touring and the 18 Equinox. They each have pros over the other and there are few to no cons. The only tech upgrade one can opt for in the CR-V Touring is a heated steering wheel - which comes standard in the Equinox Premier.
I don't think the 1.5L Turbo is underpowered in the Equinox. The 2.0L 252 HP Turbo due out by this summer will probably come at an increased price and will require premium fuel. The 1.6L 136 HP Diesel will almost certainly also come with a price increase vs. the 170 HP base engine, and diesel isn't exactly "cheap", either. I like HP but the base engine in the Equinox seems to have plenty of pep. The Equinox also rides really smoothly - just like American cars of old. I've always found Honda (I've owned 3 of them) to feel kind of "basic" in the "ride" department, could also be because of the CVT.
Absolutely. This is literally my thought process in a nutshell. I still haven't deicided but I don't think I can go wrong either way really
You mean you CAN'T go wrong, either way? ;-)
Grogo59 haha yeah stupid auto correct :p
Probably the best review done, your pros at this or maybe other reviewers are just so much unprofessional. Like the Equinox I may actually buy now when they get the 2.0 liter and 9 speed.
Thank you so much!! We really appreciate that, Dan! And thanks for watching!
Great review. Honda made a huge mistake putting the CVT in the CRV Utter junk transmission
Thanks!
I love Chevy cars
wow, looks pretty good. surprised went from old, ugly, dated to one of the best looking in its class with best in class connectivity, tech, and one of the best interiors. nice.
Agree..besides for its lack of v6..and i dont like the front end
but you like the ford escapes's front end? frumpy, dated, and ugly? lol what? not to mention don't like the 4 CYL well news flash pretty much every thing in this segment is turbo 4's
CrazyFastRapper i guess they just traded the V6 for the diesel engine for gas mileage
William Humphrey yeah..kinda miss the v6 tho
Justin Bouche I know, but the v6 was a good touch, and plus the front end on the 2017 model looks sexy af
Please dump the Stop/Start feature or at least add an off/on switch.

very nice review. a post below said these vehicles need premium gas. is that true?
MLJ Publishing Group Thanks! Only the 2.0L Turbo recommends premium fuel.
Great job!
+Stephen Cooper Thanks Stephen! Glad you liked it!
Are the heated seats across all modes or just the premier?
It is standard on the Premier or optional through the Confidence and Convenience package on LT.
At 5:20 why are the headlights blinking really fast?
It's just an effect caused by the cameras frame rate
To connect the phone for android car is it Bluetooth or with a cable ?
It actually requires both. You must first plug in via USB and then Bluetooth will automatically turn on. Thanks for watching!
Can anyone tell me the ground clearance??? I can't find an answer.
The media site that Chevy provides didn't list it, so unfortunately we are in the dark as well! Sorry!
Car Confections I noticed that as well. No worries! Thank you for trying!
Is the $34,000 a Canadian price or US price?
All the quoted prices are for the US market. Hope that helps!
The keyfob made a noise?
+planedudea380 It's the oddest thing...You can't hear it in person but you can in the footage. And it only happen on General Motors vehicles.
Must be a high pitch or a diff frequency, cool
A rather strange choice? isn't it a given that people will eventually adopt Diesel even in the US, especially when considering the economical MPG benefits.
I ordered one then cancelled the order when I found out they need Premium Fuel. Dealer doesn't tell you that and that is a big expense
Wow, really I do not see that any where and we test drove one and were told it does not take Premium fuel. So what is the truth?
9:25 min... he said it uses regular unleaded
You really aren't doing car reviews, you are doing car showcases of partner dealers.
+HALWG51 We are not paid by any dealers so there is no bias. We try to focus primarily on factual information because we want the viewers to be able to make up their own minds and not have our opinions shoved down their throats.
I strongly disagree these are great reviews of the all the cars they do. Not a gear head review with nothing more than a gear head opinion that most of could care less about. Thanks for doing these REVIEWS with class.
nice jeep
Chad Campbell wut
Well I have the ls..
Forester and crv are simply way better than this.
Really? I what way(s)?
Strong disagreement on that.....the tech in the Chevy seems to be way ahead of the CRV and the Forester. What am I missing? I love Subaru's but tech wise have some catching up to do.
It looks like the trax I'm not getting this!
I can see a lot of trump supporters driving this vehicle
Why do you have to bring politics into EVERYTHING?
Better than you Geo Spectra, hippie.
I think trump is a pos and I'd drive this.
What a lame comment!
