About the Chevrolet Equinox
The Equinox is Chevrolet's mid-size SUV, and there is an important sourcing distinction to make. SAIC-GM has built petrol Equinox models in China with a 191 kW 2.0-litre turbo producing 353 Nm through a nine-speed automatic. The Equinox EV, however, is assembled in Mexico at Ramos Arizpe — it is not a Chinese vehicle at all.
