The 2026 Chevrolet Equinox comes in three main trims: LT, RS, and ACTIV. All share a turbocharged 1.5-liter engine with 175 hp and 203 lb-ft of torque, plus a Drive Mode Selector for Normal, Sport, Snow/Ice, and AWD conditions.

Choose **LT** for daily comfort with heated seats, 11-inch digital displays, Google built-in infotainment, and Chevy Safety Assist. The **RS** adds sport style with blacked-out accents, wireless charging, and available 20-inch wheels for a refined, athletic feel. The **ACTIV** is adventure-ready with all-terrain tires, roof rails, and rugged design for outdoorsy lifestyles.

Each trim includes the same safety essentials and cargo flexibility (up to 63.5 cu ft with rear seats folded). Ready to find your match? Call Markquart Motors at (715) 833-0444 or browse current inventory online.
