CHEVY EQUINOX EV, HISTORY OF AMERICAN MOTORS, NEW DISCONTINUED-MODELS LIST

EV Channels Review

The Chevrolet Equinox EV is presented as a near-perfect electric vehicle, with the primary drawback being the absence of Apple CarPlay. The reviewer praises its amazing range (285-319 miles), excellent handling for a compact EV, good visibility, and a large, well-executed infotainment screen running a new Google operating system. This system, which uses percentages instead of miles for remaining battery life and integrates Google Maps with traffic and weather, is highlighted for its accuracy in predicting arrival battery levels, reducing range anxiety. The interior is noted for its comfortable seats and attractive design. While the lack of Apple CarPlay is a significant concern for the reviewer, potentially being a deal-breaker for many, the overall assessment is highly positive, emphasizing its affordability (starting under $30,000 after tax credits), good powertrain, and spaciousness for its class. The vehicle is built on GM's new Ultium architecture and is a distinct model from its gasoline counterpart.
