Performance Comparison

Given the 2024 Chevy Equinox EV was the first release of this powerhouse EV, the 2025 Chevy Equinox EV continues on with the option of a 213 horsepower single electric motor powering front-wheel drive models, and 288 horsepower dual electric motors powering the all-wheel drive models.  Both models showcase a big 85 kilowatt-hour battery, which combines for an EPA-estimated range of 319 miles on FWD models and 285 miles of range on AWD models.  The Chevrolet Equinox EV takes full advantage of regenerative braking, a feature common to electric vehicles that captures energy during deceleration and routes it back to the battery. What sets the Equinox EV apart is how effectively it implements this feature with its standard one-pedal driving system. By simply lifting off the accelerator, you can slow the vehicle without touching the brake pedal. Two selectable settings-Normal and Heavy-let you tailor the experience to your preference. When it comes to charging, both the 2024 and 2025 Equinox EV supports DC fast charging at up to 150 kW, which is compatible with most public chargers. For home charging, the Equinox supports Level 2 charging at 11.5 kW, which is right in line with most EVs on the market, making overnight top-ups easy and convenient.

Interior Comparison

The 2025 Chevrolet Equinox EV showcases a modern and upscale interior, with the standout centerpiece being its tech-forward dashboard, anchored by a standard 17.7-inch touchscreen and a crisp 11-inch digital driver display. These dual screens deliver an ultra-wide, visually impressive layout that's both functional and eye-catching. Compared to the 2024 Equinox EV, which also offered digital displays, the 2025 model feels more refined and polished, with improved interface design and better integration across features.  Where the 2025 Equinox EV really shines is in feature content and material quality. Like the 2024 version, it delivers more tech, comfort, and convenience than similarly priced EV rivals. Soft-touch surfaces are found across the dash, center console, and door panels, giving the cabin a premium feel. We love the use of physical buttons and knobs for key functions, unlike some competitors that rely entirely on touch controls.  The cargo space remains the same as in the 2024 model: 26.4 cubic feet with the rear seats up. Thanks to a two-tier cargo floor, a spacious underfloor storage compartment, and a smartly designed load area, the 2025 Equinox EV can accommodate more luggage than close competitors.

Trim Offerings

A notable difference between the 2024 and 2025 model years of the Chevy Equinox EV is the trim offerings: in 2024, you had your pick of five trim levels, while the 2025 Chevy Equinox EV has slimmed things down to three models.  Let's review all of them for your convenience.Starting with the base 1LT trim, the 2024 Chevrolet Equinox EV rides on stylish 19-inch alloy wheels and features a high-tech cabin highlighted by a massive 17.7-inch touchscreen infotainment display and an 11-inch digital driver information center. Standard safety is a strong suit, too-Chevy Safety Assist comes included, bundling features like Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Forward Collision Alert, and more for peace of mind on every drive.  Stepping up to the 2LT trim adds a suite of comfort-focused upgrades like a heated steering wheel, heated front seats, and heated side mirrors, making chilly mornings far more bearable. The exterior also gets a signature front LED light bar, giving the SUV a modern, high-tech look that stands out on the road.  Next up is the 3LT,  which includes ventilated front seats and heated rear outboard seats, and also upgrades to larger, 21-inch aluminum wheels, and introduces advanced safety tech like Reverse Automatic Braking.  The 2RS trim has sportier design with features like a flat-bottom heated steering wheel for a race-inspired grip and includes heated front and rear outboard seats for passengers. On the outside, the 2RS stands out with exclusive performance-oriented styling, including more aggressive front and rear fascias, sleek black accents, and unique badging.  At the top of the lineup sits the 3RS, the most premium and performance-inspired version of the Equinox EV. In addition to 21-inch gloss black wheels, it includes the most comprehensive suite of driver-assistance technologies available on the Equinox EV lineup, and wraps passengers in luxury with upgraded materials, ambient lighting, and exclusive interior accents.Making the choice a bit simpler, the 2025 Chevy Equinox EV offers three trims for customers in Roseville, Folsom, Rocklin, Lincoln, Davis and Fair Oaks.  Starting off with the base LT1 model, drivers will enjoy over 15 standard safety and driver assistance features to help boost their confidence on the road.  This stylish EV rides smoothly on 19-inch wheels, and features the 17.7-inch diagonal center touchscreen, and 11-inch diagonal color driver information center and built-in Google Navigation, .  Moving up to the LT2 adds some exterior pep with a front LED light bard and handy roof rails.  Convenience is at your fingertips with the wireless phone charging system, while the interior environment can change with your mood using the selectable Multi-Color Ambient interior lighting system.  An 8-way power driver seat is standard, as well as Evotex seating upholstery and a heated steering wheel.  Coming in bold and sporty is the 2025 Chevy Equinox EV RS, which features black emblems, black mirrors, black roof-mounted side rails, and 21-inch black-painted aluminum wheels.
