Performance
StabiliTrak
Electronic Stability Control System (with Traction Control) helps you stay on track and in control when faced with slippery conditions or unavoidable emergency manoeuvres. Able to detect dissonance between the driver’s intentions and the trajectory of the vehicle in a fraction of a second, this semi-automated system will adjust the brakes and torque in order to help you safely regain control. The 2022 Chevrolet Equinox comes equipped with the StabiliTrak across all trims.
Switchable All-Wheel Drive
Standard switchable all-wheel drive system on the 2022 Chevrolet Equinox lets you have the best of both worlds. Spend your everyday driving in the front-wheel drive mode for better fuel-efficiency and switch to the all-wheel drive mode when you need a little extra kick and control. This function is great for when you run into more challenging conditions or are taking on more rugged terrain.
