If you’re in the market for a spacious family vehicle, the GMC Terrain and the Chevrolet Equinox may be on your list. These corporate cousins both have accommodating cabins, intuitive infotainment systems, and a healthy list of standard features.
As compact SUVs go, the 2022 GMC Terrain stands out with its truck-like exterior design, whereas the Chevrolet Equinox blends in with similar vehicles. You might be wondering if there are other differences between these two vehicles. If so, read on for a closer comparison of the 2022 GMC Terrain and the Chevrolet Equinox.
Both vehicles have enough power to give drivers an easy commute, and both the Terrain and the Equinox have a 170-horsepower 1.5-liter turbocharged engine under the hood. Where the powertrains in these vehicles differ is in the transmission. The 2022 GMC Terrain sports a smooth-operating nine-speed automatic transmission with front-wheel drive. The Chevy Equinox, on the other hand, has a six-speed automatic transmission that reviewers have reported as slow to downshift.
The 2022 Terrain seats five people and has a spacious and accommodating interior that is suitable for adults in both the front and rear seats. The materials range from soft-touch plastics to perforated leather upholstery. It also has an innovative push-button gear-shifter located on the central console. The 2022 Chevy Equinox also seats five people in a roomy cabin and has middling standard materials that include hard and soft plastics, but its nondescript interior design doesn’t help it stand out in a competitive class.
When it comes to standard and available technology features, the Chevy Equinox and the Terrain have nearly identical standard features lists that include:
They both have intuitive touchscreen systems, but the Terrain offers a Wi-Fi Hotspot as a standard feature and the Chevy Equinox does not.
