Well done! The best overview video I’ve seen on this yet.

Great overview! Tip on SuperCruise: if it disengages, press the SC button on the steering wheel within 10 seconds to see an infobox in the cluster with the reason it turned off. I have the 1st gen system on my Bolt EUV and have been very happy with it. I’ve used it for literally thousands of miles of highway travel now, and won’t buy another car without a similar system

GM cars used to be pretty invisible to me. About 10 years ago I started noticing them more. Their design departments are now producing some pretty attractive vehicles. Even our Ice Blue Metallic Bolt EUV has some sharp looking design elements for a chunky econobox. The Bolt is actually my first American car and I'm 67. Okay sure my first car, a 1974 Opel Manta Rally in Signal Green, was made by GM owned Opel, but it was fully a German built and designed car. Anyway, the fact that I now think GM cars sometimes look nice going down the road is a big compliment to their design team. This Equinox is no exception - really nice looking car. Now if they would only offer it in that Cacti Green you can get on the Trax . . .

Currently driving a Bolt EUV, and seriously considering an Equinox EV simply for the additional room (with 2 kids the Bolt fills fast for trips), and faster charging at DC fast charging on those road trips. Thanks for the look!

Hey! I don't know if you remember, but I live in Corydon, IN and I bought a Bolt EUV at the same time you got yours. I still have it and I still love it!

Anyway, I just got my wife a blacked out Equinox EV RS like the one you have in this video! It's GREAT! She really loves it!

I love my '23 Bolt EUV but this is really making me want the Equinox EV even without the CarPlay/AA!

Excellent review. Funny that your dealer got one before the embargo lifted. Keep up the good work.
Many comments about affordability of EVs. People are forgetting to do the math on how much they save on gas when they charge at home 95 to 99% of the time. Over the term of the loan it can be tens of thousands of dollars.

Thanks for the full review. I've been looking for full reviews since I learned about the equinox ev but most reviews i found have just been show room floor walk arounds.
Wish there was more info on the google maps feature. Ive heard some things that the subscription was going to be bundled in with onstar but have never gotten solid answers.

I really wish they’d have a stereo upgrade available with a “Sun & Sound” type package like we’ve seen before. I’ve got a 19 Equinox Premier 2.0 and the Bose and sunroof are my fav options. The Bose isn’t amazing but does a good job for the price over the standard audio. On my Volt, Equinox, and Cruze I don’t mind the hard plastic lower door materials. Very cheap to replace when they will ultimately be destroyed from all the use.

Excellent review you are amazing. I just got my 2024 Equinox EV in Blue we are loving it so far it is the 2RS!

Great overview. Love your videos and your format. Keep up the great work.

Great review. I liked your segment on the self parking fail (other reviewers don’t test these types of functions) as well as the demonstration of the good self-driving capability. That said, I think you needed to put more emphasis on the surprising decision to forgo Apple Car Play on the entertainment system. What is the rational? Cost or a defensive move to stop Apple from gaining a bigger share of the pie. You are probably right to say that the Equinox EV will be a success for GM but I suspect that a lot of potential buyers are going to be turned off by the lack of integration with their cell phone. There will be other similarly priced cars with Apple Car Play in the future; GM is not the only choice. Now subscribed - thanks.

Are there any mechanisms to prevent snow buildup on the lights. This is a problem with the cyber truck because of the small recessed design. A washer would be useful.

[daviyen]

I had self park on my 2nd Gen Volt. I think it works best when it parks between vehicles; it is looking for the objects to aim between. It never seemed to fare well with painted lines.

[ronniemullis]

Very good review. I was hoping they had a better choice of interior colors like the Equinox shown on TV about a year ago. I’m waiting on the Cadillac Optiq, I hope it will offer a two tone tan interior and a little more power than the Equinox FWD. Thanks, I subscribed.

[snakeplissken]

Great informative review. Good edit, too 👍🏼. Parking was hilarious 😂
Tesla definitely has that beat.

[leos]

Great review! Very excited for mine to arrive.

Does the SuperCruise module take up the wheel well like it did in the EUV?

[MigyFl]

Thanks for the video. I am getting the Equinox EV, yet in transit, but coming. I am glad you pointed out the sits are good, because I love my Bolt EUV premier but I want the more miles the faster charging and the room inside. Just one question, Will you review the FWD? wondering if the motor power is enough. For sure I won't use the self parking. Great video.

At 23:37 when you mention your concern about the upcoming bolt. I think the only way the bolt is better is that it's significantly cheaper but also significantly more range. 400 miles for under 30k would be very competitive to the equinox. It becomes do I want more space or more range. Instead of do I want a cheap small ev or a slightly bigger ev for a bit more if the bolt had comparable range.
