2027 Chevy Equinox: What’s New, the Three Trims and What Carries Over

The 2027 Chevy Equinox adds an available Interior Camera and new Autumn Harvest Metallic paint.

The 2027 Chevy Equinox is now the current model year on chevrolet.com, and it is an update rather than a reinvention. The design, the 11.3-inch touchscreen and the turbocharged engine carry over, while a few new features and a new color give this year its own identity. If you are weighing the 2027 against a 2026, knowing exactly what changed makes that choice easier. Below is what Chevrolet publishes for the new model year, and you can browse the current Equinox lineup on our New Vehicles page.

What’s New for the 2027 Chevy Equinox

The headline addition is an available Interior Camera. Chevrolet describes it as new for 2027. It enables cabin glance and security recordings of the inside of the vehicle, which is useful for keeping an eye on the back seat or for peace of mind when the SUV is parked.

There is also a new exterior color, Autumn Harvest Metallic, which is exclusive to the LT and ACTIV. Beyond those two changes, the 2027 keeps the same formula, so shoppers who liked the 2026 will find the same SUV with a little more to choose from.

LT, RS and ACTIV: How the Trims Differ

The LT is the versatile starting point. It comes with the 1.5L turbo engine, heated front seats and heated steering wheel, and the 11.3-inch touchscreen, with HD Surround Vision available.

The RS is the style-focused choice, with black mirrors, moldings, emblems and badging. It rides on standard 19-inch wheels, with 20-inch machined wheels available, and adds a flat-bottom steering wheel and an available two-tone Black roof. Our guide to the 2027 Chevy Equinox RS goes deeper. The ACTIV is built for adventure, with all-terrain tires, a uniquely tuned suspension, Evotex and sueded microfiber seating and an available two-tone white roof.

Powertrain, Towing and Fuel Economy

Every gas Equinox uses a 1.5L turbocharged engine rated at 175 horsepower and 203 lb-ft of torque, paired with a standard Drive Mode Selector. All-wheel drive is available, and when properly equipped the Equinox can tow up to 1,500 pounds. It seats five across two rows and measures 183.2 inches long.

EPA estimates for the 2027 Equinox are 25 city and 29 highway mpg with front-wheel drive, or 27 combined, and 26 combined with all-wheel drive. That efficiency suits the daily commute around Orlando as well as weekend trips across Central Florida.

Technology and Safety on the 2027 Chevy Equinox

The 11.3-inch diagonal touchscreen anchors the cabin, with Google built-in, OnStar connectivity and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. Wireless phone charging is available.

Every 2027 Equinox includes more than 15 standard safety and driver assistance features. Among them is Chevy Safety Assist, a package of six features. It covers Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian Braking and Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, plus Forward Collision Alert, Following Distance Indicator and IntelliBeam headlamps.
