2024 Chevrolet Equinox: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The biggest 2024 Chevrolet Equinox change is broader standard driver-assistance coverage, including blind-spot monitoring on LT, RS and Premier. This is otherwise a light-update year, with more standard equipment on LT but no redesign or powertrain change.
About the 2024 Chevrolet Equinox
3rd generation (2018-2024), final year of the generation; the 2022 styling update carries into 2024.
Chevrolet positions the Equinox as a straightforward small family SUV built around everyday usefulness rather than sporty performance. The core appeal is easy-to-use tech, standard safety features, flexible cargo space, and a compact footprint that is simple to park and live with. Against rivals, it leans on familiar controls, available AWD, fold-flat rear seating, and a comfortable, value-focused approach for commuters, small families, and errands-heavy daily driving.
The 2024 Equinox ranges from the essentials-focused LS, with a 7-inch touchscreen and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, to the comfort-focused LT. RS adds darker, sportier exterior details, while Premier brings leather-appointed seats, an 8-inch touchscreen and a hands-free power liftgate. Every trim uses the same turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine and six-speed automatic transmission.
What changed, by category
Safety
Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert became standard on LT and RS and remained part of Premier’s standard driver-assistance coverage. LT also moved front and rear parking sensors from optional to standard; LS kept the added driver-assistance package optional.
Tech
LT gained more standard comfort and convenience equipment. Heated front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control and remote start moved from optional to standard.
