Yes, the 2026 Chevrolet Equinox offers flexible drivetrain choices.

**Standard**: Front-wheel drive comes standard on all LT, RS, and ACTIV trims-efficient and smooth for everyday driving.

**Available**: All-wheel drive is offered as an upgrade across the entire lineup, ideal if you encounter snow, ice, or unpredictable weather.

**Drive Mode Selector**: Every Equinox trim includes a Drive Mode Selector to tailor performance: Normal for everyday comfort, Sport for responsive handling, Snow/Ice for traction in tough conditions, and AWD mode for maximum stability.
