New 2018 Chevy Equinox
The 2018 Chevrolet
Equinox is bringing a new look and advanced on-board tech to this year's Los
Angeles Auto Show before going on sale in Q1 of 2017.
Among its key features are the sharp and expressive design,
the on-board connectivity and the trio of propulsion choices which includes the
segment's only turbo-diesel unit, rated at 136 HP and 320 Nm of
torque.
Visually, the 2018 Equinox comes with standard
projector-beam headlamps, LED daytime running lamps and a horizontal taillight
design. Inside, there are new fabrics, a new flat-folding rear seat and the
latest connectivity technologies offered by Chevrolet - including 7 &
8" MyLink infotainment systems that support Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
and also feature OnStar 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot.
Safety wise, there are several new systems to
take into account, such as the Safety Alert Seat, Surround Vision, Forward
Collision Alert with Following Distance Indicator, Low Speed Forward Automatic
Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning and the Rear Seat
Reminder.
Powering the 2018 Equinox is a range of three
turbocharged engines, two petrol (1.5 & 2.0 liter) and a 1.6-liter diesel.
At the moment, the new Equinox is the only model in North America with an
all-turbocharged, multi-engine range.
