When looking at the three trim levels of Chevy Equinox SUVs, you’ll notice tons of overlap between each. For starters, each comes with a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine and boasts up to 63.5 cubic feet of cargo space.
Wondering about the mileage for an Equinox? The fuel economy changes based on the drivetrain, not the trim level. The Chevy Equinox MPG rating for front-wheel drive models is 26/28/27 MPG (City/Highway/Combined),1 which becomes 24/29/26 MPG (City/Highway/Combined),1 with an all-wheel drivetrain.
All three models come equipped with the following amenities:
Start with the LT trim level to enjoy a well-appointed model at the most budget-friendly price. This model comes with heated driver and front-passenger seats, a six-speaker audio system, 5G connectivity, quality cloth seat materials, and front bucket seats you will love sinking into.
Level up to the ACTIV trim level to add more rugged style – and performance – to your ride. With Black high gloss side mirror caps and 17-inch all-season blackwall tires (FWD models only), a bold front grille and exterior design, an available two-tone roof, and an incredibly tuned suspension system, the ACTIV trim answers the call to adventure.
Last but certainly not least, the RS achieves a more premium and sporty appearance, making a statement with Black roof rails, mirror caps, emblems, badging, grille, and wheels. It also offers Evotex seat trim and a flat-bottom steering wheel.

The 2025 Chevy Equinox comes in three trims: the Chevy LT, RS, and ACTIV. Each is a value-packed bundle of technology, performance, and comfort features, but the best configuration depends on your budget and lifestyle. Our sales team at Volume Chevrolet would be happy to walk you through the differences – both obvious and nuanced – between each of the 2025 Chevy Equinox trim levels.
Out of the three Chevy Equinox packages, the RS trim is at the top of the heap. This model is perfect for those who want their SUV to contain all the bells and whistles. In this case, these include available Evotex seat trim (in Black with Red accents), a flat-bottom steering wheel, and available 20-inch Black machined-face aluminum wheels. The ACTIV trim is a sporty alternative.
The most family-friendly of the three Chevrolet Equinox trim packages depends on what you’re seeking in a model. Our sales team often recommends the LT trim because it comes with lots of great qualities for a competitive price, but upper trims have good value, too. All three models are also well-equipped with safety systems that will bring you peace of mind when driving around with small children.
