It rides on the same 112.5-inch wheelbase as its predecessor but sits about an inch shorter and an inch wider with a wider front track to improve stability and handling. The rocker panels are integrated into the doors to narrow the step-over area, reducing the chances of brushing pant legs against dirty rockers getting in and out, and the flush-fitting exposed-edge windshield and rear glass reduce wind noise and compliment the tight-fitting quality look.

The five-passenger Chevrolet Equinox is available in front or all-wheel drive. Alloy wheels paired with 17-, 18- or 19-inch tires are standard and the Equinox features an electric power steering system, another attribute designed to save fuel.
