New 2026 Chevrolet Equinox ACTIV

AWD 1.5L DOHC 25/29 City/Highway MPG. The redesign is what made me do it. Living in Cleveland, the all terrain tires and the AWD system totally awesome. The only features I lost in the trade was massage seats, and HUD. which I really never got used to in the Cadillac. The seats in the Activ are both visually appealing along with being extremely comfortable. The ride is very nice. Where the Cadillac had a spirited sport style ride, the Activ had a very smooth ride. My biggest complaint? The sound system. However, swapping out the door speakers within 3 days of taking delivery, the result is near Bose quality sound. Many reviews complain about the engine, again coming off a car that had 325 horsepower there was/is a dip in HP. The result, not a big deal. Getting on the highway isn't an issue, there is plenty of power to get up to speed and to maintain it. Overall, the exterior and interior won me over to even test drive, let alone buy one, because prior to 2025 I thought Equinox's were ugly and I would have never owned one. Currently I have 3460 trouble free miles, and I enjoy every time I drive it.
