When you’re looking at a new Chevrolet Equinox at Tarr Chevrolet, you now have the option between the new 2026 Chevrolet Equinox and the all-electric 2026 Chevrolet Equinox EV. While they have similar names, they are built on different platforms with unique technologies and powertrains. Our Jefferson City, TN, Chevrolet dealers are here to highlight the differences and similarities between these two SUVs.
Gasoline vs. Electric Powertrain
The most obvious difference between the two versions is under the hood. The 2026 Chevrolet Equinox is powered by a responsive 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, cranking out 175 horsepower for a fun and efficient gas-powered drive. It’s also available with all-wheel drive for extra confidence on tough terrain and in inclement weather.
On the other hand, the 2026 Chevrolet Equinox EV is all-electric, built on the revolutionary Ultium Platform™. The EPA-estimated range is 319 miles when you choose the front-wheel-drive version. It also features One-Pedal Driving and Regen on Demand® to help convert momentum back into battery energy. Like the gasoline version, the EV version also offers all-wheel drive.
Shared High-Tech Interiors
Inside, both models are loaded with premium technology. The 2026 Chevrolet Equinox features a stunning cockpit with an 11.3-inch diagonal infotainment touchscreen and an 11-inch diagonal Driver Information Center. The 2026 Chevrolet Equinox EV takes this technology to new heights with its available 17.7-inch diagonal center screen. Both models offer a suite of advanced safety features as part of the Chevy Safety Assist suite.
Versatility and Cargo Space
The 2026 Chevrolet Equinox has a flexible folding 60/40 split-bench seat and a max cargo volume of 63.5 cubic feet. The EV version has a total of 57.2 cubic feet of cargo volume but also adds a dual-height cargo floor for more storage options. Both SUVs seat up to five.
