EV Channels Review
The EVexplored channel reviews their newly leased 2024 Chevrolet Equinox EV 2LT, highlighting it as the most affordable EV with over 300 miles of range. The hosts chose this vehicle as a second car primarily for its price and comfort, especially for Liv, who found its driving dynamics surprisingly accommodating despite its size. Key advantages include its 319-mile EPA range (on the FWD model), efficient highway performance (3.2-3.4 miles/kWh), and a comfortable, intuitive driving experience that mimics familiar ICE vehicles. However, the lack of Apple CarPlay/Android Auto and the presence of Android Automotive, while functional, presented some initial bugs and frustrations. The hosts also noted the sluggish acceleration compared to their Mach-E GT and the absence of Super Cruise as minor drawbacks. Ultimately, the Equinox EV's compelling lease deal and comfortable driving dynamics made it the ideal choice for their needs, despite some software quirks and the absence of advanced driver-assistance features.
