Yes! Front-wheel drive is standard on all 2026 Chevrolet Equinox trims (LT, RS, and ACTIV), with all-wheel drive offered as an upgrade across the lineup. This gives you flexibility to choose the drivetrain that fits your climate and driving style.

AWD delivers extra confidence in snow, rain, and unpaved surfaces-especially appealing if you live in Wisconsin winters or enjoy outdoor adventures. The Drive Mode Selector also includes an AWD mode to optimize traction in challenging conditions.
