The 2026 Chevrolet Equinox comes in three distinct trims, each tailored to different lifestyles. The **LT** is your everyday comfort choice, with heated seats, remote start, and all the modern tech you need. The **RS** adds sporty flair-think blacked-out accents, a flat-bottom steering wheel, and wireless charging for a refined, athletic feel. The **ACTIV** is built for adventure seekers, featuring all-terrain tires, roof rails, and rugged styling perfect for outdoor enthusiasts. All three share the same turbocharged engine, drive modes, and safety features-you're really choosing your style and comfort priorities.
