Aug 8, 2016

The 2016 Chevy Equinox faces a lot of challenges from other SUVs. The 2016 Jeep Cherokee, for instance, is in the same class. How does the Equinox compare to the Cherokee? Which one is right for your family? Your test drive is waiting at your Chevy dealer Noblesville, IN..

Value
If you opt for the Equinox, you’ll start out a few thousand dollars ahead of a Cherokee buyer. That saves you money, or it gives you more money to get the options you need. Furthermore, the Equinox has a bigger cargo hold than the Cherokee. The difference is even greater with the seats folded. The Cherokee measures 54.9 cu.ft. while the Equinox can claim 63.7 cu.ft. Adding value, the Equinox is covered by a two-year, no-cost maintenance plan.

Safety and Performance
While the Cherokee fell short, the Equinox earned top ratings from the crash testers at the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. As a Top Safety Pick, it offers greater peace of mind as well as potentially lower insurance rates. As a performer, the Equinox V-6 generates 300 horsepower with 272 lb.-ft. of torque. The Cherokee Sport can only claim 271 horsepower and 239 lb.-ft. Learn about pricing.

Get Connected
Every Equinox offers the OnStar WiFi hotspot. The Cherokee requires a bigger investment in a higher trim level before making WiFi service available. Also, the Equinox offers exclusive tablet holders that are perfect for the kids.
