One of the things that people change in their lives when they grow their family is often their vehicles. The change from car to SUV is one that is often done in order to handle the people and the luggage that comes with having a larger family. One of the best family SUVS on the market is the 2017 Chevrolet Equinox. Though most awards for vehicles for the 2017 year are not out yet, the Equinox has won JD Power award for Compact SUVs for two years consecutively already. Part of what made it award worthy is the top safety ratings, comfortable seating for five, some of the best gas mileage for larger vehicles, and top of the line technology.
The design of the comfortable equinox is made for taller people with nearly 40 inches of rear legroom as well as almost 65 cubic feet of cargo space.
With upgrades like lane departure warning, blind spot alerts, rear cameras, park assist, and traffic alerts as well as standard air bags and a steel safety cage, safety is a top priority for the equinox.
For people who love technology while they’re driving, the Equinox has built-in 4G LTE Wi-Fi for a more reliable connection for your devices. It also have Bluetooth, navigation, traffic and weather updates as well as intuitive diagnostic information, parking reminders, and remote start and lock controlled through your phone.
It also has some of the best power with both eco and control options allowing 300 horsepower for 0 to 60 in just under 7 seconds, 6 speed automatic control, and 3500 lb tow capacity and some of the best gas mileage at 31 mph.
