The Chevrolet Equinox vs Ford Escape
Earning the title as “Highest Ranked SUV in Initial Quality in a tie, two years in A Row” according to JD Power is a pretty impressive feat, but when you know the Chevrolet Equinox like we do, it comes as no surprise. When you break down the levels of customer satisfaction, unique and modern features, and low number of yearly incidents, this vehicle easily proves to be one of the best options in its class. To show you why, we’re going to compare it to a similar vehicle – The Ford Escape Titanium.
Comparing the engines of the Chevrolet Equinox to the Ford Escape Titanium, you will notice that the upgraded 3.6 L V6 Engine of the 2017 Chevrolet Equinox has 301 horsepower that allows up to 3,500 lbs. towing, compared to 245 horsepower of the Ford Escape Titanium. The other option is the standard 2.4 L 4-Cylinder engine that is a more fuel efficient option, providing drives with up to 31 mpg highway, with eco mode maximizing efficiency in your ride.
The Chevrolet Equinox also provides its passengers with additional storage space through its flexible and spacious design, with multi-flex sliding rear seats that can be adjusted to create 39.9 inches of rear leg room. If that isn’t enough, the second row can easily be folded forward to create 63.7 cubic feet of cargo space. The combination of power and space in the Chevrolet Equinox creates a convenient and flexible ride for its owners and passengers.
Chevrolet provides its drivers with a number of safety features to help prevent, protect and respond before, during and after a collision occurs. Prevention features include available forward collision alert, rear cross traffic alert, and side blind zone alert. The six standard air bags and high-strength steel safety cage are designed to protect passengers and drivers during a collision, and OnStar automatic Crash Response is there to notify emergency services in the case of an incident.
