2014 Chevrolet Equinox

••3.5

Posted On: May 14, 2024

Very amazing car, good to travel

Pros

Space is immaculate and roomy, Color was definitely a bonus cause it was my favorite

Cons

Shape looked a little odd but I really didn't care, Gas tank was my biggest issue at first

The equinox is definitely a one of a kind car, especially if your a mama with kids. Amazing space, including the trunk! And very comfortable. Only thing I didn't like at first was how much gas I needed but whew I'm not complaining. Definitely love going to the beach with it!.

Overview

The 2014 Chevrolet Equinox sees no major changes for this year’s model. It comes equipped with the same two engine options as the last year. The base engine is slow on acceleration but provides great fuel economy for a vehicle of this size. The interior is spacious and provides great overall comfort. It also gets much better cargo volume than some of its competitors.

Pricing and Features
6.0/10

The 2014 Chevrolet Equinox is available in three trim options, namely LS, LT, and LTZ. The base LS model is available at a price of $24,440 and gets a decent amount of features with it. The top of the line LTZ variant is available at a price of $31,650 and is equipped with a much more powerful V6 engine. Along with that, it gets more features at the interior as well as the exterior that enhances the overall experience of driving and using the Chevy Equinox.

We Recommend

If the base 2.4-liter engine would be enough for your use, then we would recommend going for the mid-level LT trim. It gets better infotainment features like the touchscreen display, voice controls, and few features at the exterior as well like the heated mirrors and rearview camera. But if the much more powerful V6 would be your choice, then definitely go for the top LTZ trim.

Engine and Performance
6.1/10

The 2014 Chevrolet Equinox is available in two engine options. The first one is a base 2.4-liter inline-4 cylinder engine that generates around 182 hp along with 172 lb-ft of torque. The second is a much more powerful 3.6-liter V6 engine that generates 301 hp along with 272 lb-ft of torque. Both the engines are mated with a 6-speed automatic transmission and deliver the power to the front wheels as standard. There is an option to opt for the all-wheel-drive setup as well. The base engine setup accelerates the vehicle from 0-60 mph in 8.7 seconds, while the quarter-mile distance is covered in 16.7 seconds.

Exterior
9.0/10

The exterior design of the 2014 Chevy Equinox is not flashy but sees soft curves at places rather than a boxy shape that we usually see on SUVs. The Equinox has proper proportions that seem to be attractive. It is the longest in length and thus provides much larger cargo volume behind the rear seats. It has a curb weight of 3,777 pounds and is the heaviest among the competition. The Chevy also has a longer wheelbase of 113 inches and has a decent ground clearance of 7 inches.
