Absolutely. The 2027 Equinox EV is well-suited to Wisconsin driving, from daily commutes to Eau Claire to longer trips around Lake Wissota. With up to 319 miles of range, most local travel needs are covered without constant charging.

For Wisconsin winters, available all-wheel drive provides added traction on snow, slush, and wet roads while still delivering 307 miles of range. Cold temperatures do reduce electric range and slow charging slightly, so Markquart Motors recommends home charging for preconditioning (warming the battery before a trip) and thoughtful route planning during winter months.

Our factory-trained Chevrolet technicians and Chevrolet specialists understand Wisconsin EV ownership and can help you plan for seasonal changes. Call (715) 833-0444 to discuss AWD options and winter readiness for your family's needs.
