EV Channels Review
The 2025 Chevrolet Equinox EV is presented as a compellingly affordable electric SUV, particularly when factoring in potential federal tax credits. The reviewer highlights its substantial feel, comfortable ride, and spacious interior, noting ample headroom and comfortable seating, even for taller individuals. Key features like the Google-powered infotainment system with app integration (Spotify, Waze) and the vibrating seat safety feature (a GM staple) are praised. However, the primary drawback identified is the 150 kW DC fast charging, which is considered a significant limitation for road trips, though adequate for daily driving. The reviewer also notes the absence of wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto. Despite these points, the overall sentiment is positive, with the Equinox EV seen as a great value proposition, especially the LT trim for budget-conscious buyers, and a well-executed vehicle by GM.
