The biggest mechanical story for 2027 is the transmission upgrade on front-wheel-drive Equinox models. Chevrolet replaces the previous CVT with an eight-speed automatic, bringing FWD tow ratings up to 1,500 pounds — a significant improvement over the 2026 model’s 800-lb rating and now matching the AWD models. Fuel economy remains competitive for the segment, though FWD ratings decreased slightly with the transmission change. Chevrolet also replaced the Cacti Green exterior color with a new Autumn Harvest Metallic for 2027.
The engine — a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder — continues to deliver a smooth, confident driving experience with 175 horsepower and up to 203 lb-ft of torque in AWD trim. The Drive Mode Selector lets drivers adapt to changing road or weather conditions, making the Equinox a capable year-round SUV in Northeast Ohio.
Every 2027 Equinox comes with more than 15 standard safety and driver-assistance features. Chevrolet Safety Assist — included on all trims — is one of the most comprehensive standard safety bundles in the compact SUV class. It covers:
Does the 2027 Chevrolet Equinox have third-row seating?
No — the 2027 Chevrolet Equinox is a five-passenger, two-row compact crossover SUV and does not offer third-row seating in any trim level. The cabin is designed to maximize comfort for up to five adults, and with up to 63.5 cubic feet of maximum cargo space (rear seats folded), it is well-suited for families and road trips alike.
If you need a Chevrolet with a third row, the Chevrolet Traverse (three rows, up to eight passengers) or the Chevrolet Tahoe (full-size, up to nine passengers) may be the right fit. Contact the team at Spitzer Chevrolet Northfield to explore all available options.
What is the starting MSRP of the 2027 Chevrolet Equinox?
The 2027 Chevrolet Equinox starts at approximately $29,000 MSRP (before destination freight charge of $1,995) for the base LT trim in front-wheel drive. The RS and Activ trims begin at approximately $33,900 FWD. All-wheel drive adds $2,000 to any trim level. Final pricing will include taxes, title, license, and dealer fees — contact Spitzer Chevrolet Northfield for current pricing and any available manufacturer incentives.
What engine does the 2027 Chevrolet Equinox have?
All 2027 Equinox trims are powered by a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine producing 175 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque in FWD configuration. Choosing the available all-wheel-drive system bumps torque to 203 lb-ft for added towing and traction performance. For 2027, FWD models have been upgraded from a CVT to an eight-speed automatic transmission, matching the AWD powertrain setup.
What is the towing capacity of the 2027 Chevrolet Equinox?
The 2027 Chevrolet Equinox is rated to tow up to 1,500 pounds on both FWD and AWD models — a meaningful upgrade for FWD buyers compared to the 2026 model, which was rated at just 800 lbs. The improved tow rating is a direct result of the switch to the eight-speed automatic transmission on front-wheel-drive variants. This makes the Equinox capable of handling small trailers, jet skis, and light recreational equipment.
What safety features does the 2027 Chevrolet Equinox include?
The 2027 Equinox comes standard with more than 15 safety and driver-assistance features across all trims. The Chevrolet Safety Assist package includes automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, front pedestrian braking, lane departure warning with steering assist, following distance indicator, and automatic high beams — all at no additional charge. Available upgrades include a 360-degree surround-view camera system, rear parking sensors, and HD Surround Vision on the RS and Activ.
Does the 2027 Chevrolet Equinox offer Apple CarPlay and Android Auto?
Yes — wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto are standard on every 2027 Equinox trim, including the base LT. Both are accessed through the large 11.3-inch diagonal infotainment touchscreen with Google built-in. Drivers can also use voice commands to access navigation, music, calls, and messages without taking their hands off the wheel. The RS and Activ trims add a wireless charging pad so connected devices stay powered throughout your drive.
