The 2026 Chevrolet Equinox is powered by a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine available on every trim level. It delivers 175 horsepower and 203 lb-ft of torque, offering a great balance of efficiency and responsive performance for daily driving and light towing.

All Equinox trims also include a Drive Mode Selector that lets you switch between Normal, Sport, Snow/Ice, and AWD modes, so you can tailor the driving experience to road conditions or your mood.
