COMPARE 2023 CHEVROLET EQUINOX VS TRAVERSE - Albuquerque, NM

2023 Chevrolet Equinox vs 2023 Chevrolet Traverse

For anyone seeking an SUV, the 2023 Chevrolet lineup has much to offer, with options ranging from the compact Equinox to the mid-size, third-row Traverse. While both award-winning models share the Chevy pedigree, they differ in more ways than size.

Performance

Both the Equinox and Traverse provide smooth, confident driving experiences. The Equinox features a 175-horsepower 1.5L 4-cylinder engine, while the Traverse boasts a turbocharged V6 that delivers 310 horsepower. The Equinox's 6-speed automatic transmission contrasts with the Traverse's 9-speed automatic.

Appearance

SUV buyers typically appreciate a vehicle's size. The Traverse's 205.9-inch length conveys a sense of elegance and athleticism, while the Equinox's 183.1-inch length offers a lean, sporty aesthetic. The Equinox and Traverse both come with Chevrolet's automatic on/off LED headlamps, but they have different designs. The Equinox's headlamps feature sweeping upward wings, while the Traverse's are slightly angled and thin. Tinted glass and impressive wheel options are available for both models. The Equinox's fully loaded version includes 18" aluminum wheels, while the High Country Traverse has 20" polished aluminum wheels and 20" all-season blackwall tires.

Features

If you prefer leather-appointed upholstery, the Equinox and Traverse have you covered with Jet Black and Jet Black/Maple Sugar options. The Traverse also offers Jet Black/Chai perforated leather-appointed seats. Only the Traverse has the highly sought-after High Country trim, while the Equinox's fully loaded Premier trim offers similar features. The High Country Traverse has a standard rear park assist and a rear vision camera, which the Equinox's Premier trim lacks. The Equinox Premier offers an available panoramic power sunroof, while the Traverse's fully loaded version comes with a standard Dual SkyScape 2-panel power sunroof. Depending on your family's preferences, these additions can significantly affect driving enjoyment.
