EV Channels Review
The 2024 Chevrolet Equinox EV 2RS demonstrates impressive highway range, exceeding its EPA highway rating by 12 miles and achieving a total of 303.2 miles in a 70 mph range test. The reviewer found the vehicle to be a capable road tripper, benefiting from ideal warm weather conditions. However, a significant point of contention is the vehicle's reported energy consumption, which consistently exceeded its 85 kWh battery capacity, suggesting a potentially larger battery pack or unusual energy management. The reviewer also noted the vehicle's unusually low pack voltage, which impacts its DC fast charging performance, making it charge slower on 150 kW chargers than on 350 kW chargers, despite a 150 kW maximum charge rate. The reviewer plans further charging tests to investigate these anomalies. While the range performance is commendable, the charging experience and battery capacity questions remain areas for further investigation.
