4 Reasons to Test Drive the 2025 Chevy Equinox EV

1. OnStar Basics

OnStar Basics is a set of cutting-edge safety functions that are built into your Equinox EV’s infotainment system. The OnStar Basics package includes live traffic with GPS navigation, built-in voice assistance, and remote commands. The most impressive feature in the OnStar Basics system is automatic Crash Response, which can detect when your Equinox EV has been involved in a crash and contact a live OnStar advisor for immediate assistance.

2. Chevy Safety Assist

The Chevy Safety Assist collection acts as another set of eyes on the road when you’re driving your new Equinox EV. Chevy Safety Assist contains the following driver-assistance features, which use radar technology and onboard cameras to monitor your surroundings:

  • Automatic Emergency Braking
  • Forward Collision Alert
  • Following Distance Indicator
  • Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning
  • IntelliBeam
  • Front Pedestrian Braking

The functions in Chevy Safety Assist warn you to take corrective action when a dangerous situation arises or, in some cases, they can take action for you. For example, Front Pedestrian Braking can activate your hard brakes when a pedestrian enters your path and you do not apply the brakes in time to avoid a collision.

3. Electric Propulsion System

If you’re looking to lower your carbon footprint and lead a more eco-friendly lifestyle, the Equinox EV is a great place to start because it has an electric propulsion system. The Equinox EV’s electric propulsion system reaches an EPA-estimated 319 miles when it’s fully charged. The onboard charging module reaches 11.5 kW Level 2 charge rates, keeping your SUV charged everywhere you go.

4. 17.7-Inch LCD Infotainment Touchscreen

Inside the 2025 Equinox EV, there’s a 17.7-inch color LCD infotainment touchscreen. This display gives you access to a wide range of features, including smartphone integration, SiriusXM satellite radio, and Google built-in compatibility.

Pair your phone with the Equinox EV and use natural voice recognition to make or answer phone calls while you drive. Use the large touchscreen to navigate the hundreds of exclusive SiriusXM stations, which are free of charge for the first three months after you purchase your Equinox EV. You can also install Google built-in to use convenient features like Maps, Assistant, and Play in your Equinox’s cabin!
