Chevy Offers up Primo Peek at Equinox EV Via Electrek Blog



After everyone here at the Mid-Missouri Powerhouse excitedly watched the Chevy Equinox EV’s debut during CES this winter, GM has now shared a new video of this exciting and energy-efficient vehicle! You can clearly see a new blue two-toned exterior color with a pearl roof. This appears to be the most current “preview” of the upcoming electric SUV before it begins the production phase later next year. The
Electrek blog is a very well-respected source of information for all things EV, and they expressed their eagerness to eat up all of the news possible regarding our recent media flurry.

First, GM pulled the covers off a Chevy Silverado EV as well as officially announcing an all-electric Chevy Blazer. Then, Americans who have recently been dealing with multiple blows to their pocketbooks realized that they would be able to seize the opportunity to enjoy an all-electric version of the Chevy Equinox at an amazingly reasonable price. The official press release stated that Chevy will “expand its EV lineup in fall 2023 to include the Equinox EV, an affordable, functional compact SUV that will start at an estimated MSRP of around $30,000 in the US”.

Chevy’s updated EV section of its website now has included the video of the blue and white, two-toned Equinox EV with its head and tail lights cycling fully across the vehicle’s ends. Steering away rapidly from what was once conceived as a slice of automotive prestige from the future that may have never come into fruition, the Equinox EV LT would be slated to arrive with GM’s full Supercruise capacity, which could immediately make for a huge hit on their hands in terms of just what great features you can attain at a low price


 
Over the past year, it has become evident that inflation is going to remain the global norm, and consumers will be thrilled to realize that they will soon be able to own not only a piece of history, but a viable means of sustainability for our future days on Earth. The 2022 Chevy Equinox is our best-selling SUV as well as a major player in the 2-row / 5-passenger compact crossover segment. Brand-new for this year is the sporty-looking RS trim, and the ability to now quickly disable the engine start/stop system with a quick push of a button.

The RS trim features gloss-black grille and exterior accents, black interior with red stitching, 19-inch darkened wheels, and characteristically unique RS shift knob. The 2022 Equinox Premier Trim offers a leather interior with French stitching, blind-spot monitoring, hands-free power liftgate, an 8-inch touchscreen, and dual-zone climate control. Each brand-new Chevy Equinox here at the Powerhouse includes a suite of active safety features such as forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, and IntelliBeam automatic headlights.
