In the past two years, nearly every Chevy crossover and SUV – including the Trax, Trailblazer, Blazer, and Traverse – was either introduced or has received a redesign. Conspicuously absent from that list was the Equinox. That ends with the 2025 Equinox, a revamped SUV that completes Chevy’s fleet-wide makeover.
The SUV segment is currently the largest and most competitive segment in the country. To compete, you need to stand out – and the Equinox’s bold new look and thoroughly revamped cabin deserves every eyeball it’s set to receive.
At Waldorf Chevrolet Cadillac, we’re expecting to see the 2025 Equinox by year’s end. In the meantime, here’s what we can expect from the fourth generation SUV.
A Rugged New Exterior…
Contrast the 2025 Equinox with, say, the 2020 model, and the extent of its evolution is apparent. What was once a rounder, more conventional SUV has received a glow-up inspired by the sharp body lines of both the Chevy truck lineup and the 2024 Traverse. 2.3 inches wider than the 2024 model, the 2025 Equinox has undergone muscular refinement – like a professional athlete emerging for the new season after spending all off-season bulking up.
The compact SUV will come available in three distinct trims: LT, RS and ACTIV. Its bold new contours pair amicably with striking, all-LED light elements. The Equinox will run on a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine with 175 horsepower. It’s backed by a continuously variable transmission in front-wheel-drive configurations, or an eight-speed automatic transmission with available all-wheel-drive.
…With a Tech-Heavy Interior
Like its upgraded SUV and crossover siblings, the new Equinox has been redesigned as a tech-forward driving experience. Its new 11.3-inch, diagonal infotainment screen is more than 30% larger than the Equinox’s largest, earlier screen. Thanks to Google built-in, it’s also an interconnected hub, with easy access to music, maps, media, and more.
Other cabin highlights include:
- Electronic Precision Shift
- Standard heated steering wheel & heated front seats
- Folding 60/40 split-bench second row seats
- Hidden rear cargo floor storage space
- Available wireless charging
Delivered Safely
It wouldn’t be a 2025 Chevy if it wasn’t decked out with the latest in Chevy Safety Assist technology. This suite of features includes:
- Automatic Emergency Braking
- Forward Collision Alert
- Front Pedestrian and Bicyclist Braking
- Following Distance Indicator
- Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning
- IntelliBeam
This is, of course, in addition to standard safety features such as Rear Vision Camera, Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Change Alert, Emergency Braking, and more.
Spring to Action
The actual equinox, which signifies the start of spring, takes place on March 19 this year. (Annoyingly, we have to set our clocks ahead the week before this – so remember to take care of that on Sunday!) We won’t see the arrival of the new Chevy Equinox by the spring – but we can cross our fingers that it’s here in time for the autumnal equinox on September 22. And while the 2025 model is set to be Chevy’s fullest realization of the Equinox yet, it’s still a great time to check out the 2024 model.
You can find that and much more here at Waldorf Chevrolet Cadillac, including the redesigned 2024 Trax. If you’re looking to go in a different direction, perhaps 2024 is the year you go electric with the Chevy Bolt EUV? The stars are aligning to put behind the wheel of a new vehicle today, and you can find it at Waldorf’s premier Chevy dealership.
