Chevrolet aims to undercut Tesla’s dominance in the US EV market with new pure-electric vehicles. The cheapest one in the range is called Equinox EV, named after a well-established ICE crossover in the market. The starting price of the all-electric Equinox is $30,000. With this price tag, Chevrolet positions Equinox EV in a car segment that no other competitor ever set a foot before.
Equinox EV offered in five variants: entry-level 1LT, 2LT, 3LT, and sports trims 2RS, 3RS. The Equinox EV 2RS can be ordered with both FWD and eAWD drivetrains. The high-end version Equinox EV 3LT and 3RS comes equipped with 17.7-inch huge infotainment display, 21-inch alloy wheels, and optional 19.2-kW Level 2 AC charging functionality. GM’s hands-free autonomous driving tech Super Cruise is also optional for all Equinox EV variants.
Side Not: Equinox EV is being sold in China as Buick Electra E4. To be honest, Buick version looks way more intriguing than the Chevy. Nevertheless, these Ultium-based EVs packaged so well that they will definitely lure enough customers to hurt the competition.
