We are putting two of America’s top compact SUV’s to the test as we compare the 2019 Chevy Equinox and the 2019 Hyundai Tucson.
These award-winning models are a favorite among consumers and it’s no mystery why. Versatility.
Both SUV’s come standard with their 60/40 split folding rear seating providing you with all the space, and combination of space, that you will need in the new year. Whether you are going camping for the weekend, or heading into the city, the Chevy Equinox and Hyundai Tucson give you the flexibility to get you and your passengers there in comfort.
Needing some extra traction this winter? No worries. Both the Equinox and Tucson offer an AWD option on all trim levels (except for the Chevrolet Equinox L). These SUV’s were built to get you and your passengers enjoying the open road whether you are doing some light off-road adventure or hitting the slopes this winter.
Not only that but your next SUV could be the extra hands you have been needing when yours are full. Whether you are lugging in groceries, or bringing in all your cold weather gear, you can rest assured that the hands-free lift gate assist on both the Chevy Equinox and Hyundai Tucson have your back.
Chevrolet Equinox
One of the most highly purchased Chevy vehicles, the Chevrolet Equinox is the compact SUV you need to be gifting yourself in the new year!
With thirteen distinct color options, a Redline Edition option, and four trim levels (L, LS, LT, and Premier), you will be sure to stand out pulling up to your next event or driving around town. If you are planning your next road trip, the Equinox is your best friend. The Equinox can get up to 39 miles per gallon on the highway with the available 1.6L Turbo Diesel engine saving you money even after you leave the car lot. If you are worried about losing fuel efficiency over the available AWD drive option, Chevy has you covered. They designed the Equinox’s all-wheel drive to have the ability to switch between AWD when you need the extra traction or remain in FWD for when you want to sustain optimal fuel efficiency. With its available 252 maximum available horsepower, 3,500 pounds of towing capacity with the 2.0L turbo engine, and 63.9 cubic feet of cargo volume, the Chevy Equinox is your top pick for the next family weekend camping trip!
