The 2027 Chevrolet Equinox starts at $29,000 before destination, carries a 175-horsepower 1.5L Turbo four-cylinder, and returns an EPA-estimated 27 mpg combined with front-wheel drive. Its battery-electric sibling, the 2027 Equinox EV, starts at $34,995 before destination and travels an EPA-estimated 319 miles on a charge. One is the answer for a household running I-49 between Rogers and Fayetteville every weekday; the other is the answer for a household that would rather plug in at home and skip the fuel stop entirely. Both seat five, both haul the same 1,500 pounds when properly equipped, and both are on the ground now.

George Nunnally Chevrolet sells and services both on SE Moberly Ln, a few minutes off I-49, with the whole Northwest Arkansas market inside an easy drive. This page settles the choice: what each powertrain costs, what each trim adds, how much room you actually get, and which configuration fits the way you drive.

2027 Chevrolet Equinox Engines and Powertrain Options

1.5L Turbo four-cylinder

Every gas Equinox uses the same engine: a turbocharged 1.5-liter four making 175 horsepower at 5,600 rpm, paired to an eight-speed automatic. That eight-speed is the 2027 change worth knowing about, because it is now standard on front-wheel-drive models as well as all-wheel drive, and it is a smoother, more decisive partner on the US-71B stop-and-go than the setup it replaces. Front-wheel drive is standard and all-wheel drive is a $2,000 option on all three trims.

Fuel economy is EPA-estimated at 25 mpg city, 29 highway and 27 combined with front-wheel drive, and 25/29/26 with all-wheel drive (source: fueleconomy.gov). On a 14.8-gallon tank that works out to a 400-mile total range front-drive and 406 with all-wheel drive, which covers a Bella Vista commute for the better part of two weeks. The engine runs on regular unleaded and is E15 capable.

Equinox EV electric powertrain

The Equinox EV runs an 85-kWh battery and offers front- or all-wheel drive. Front-drive models are EPA-estimated at 319 miles of range; all-wheel drive is EPA-estimated at 307 miles and rated at 112 mpge city, 95 highway and 103 combined (source: fueleconomy.gov). For 2027 it charges through a standard NACS port, which opens up far more public charging than the previous connector did, and public DC fast charging adds up to 80 miles of range in about ten minutes. The onboard charging module is 11.5 kW for home charging on a 240-volt circuit.

2027 Equinox Trim Lineup and Pricing

Prices below exclude destination, which is $1,995 on the gas Equinox and $1,800 on the Equinox EV.

Gas: LT, RS and ACTIV

LT, from $29,000 is the value of the range and it is not a stripped car: heated front seats, a heated steering wheel and the 11.3-inch touchscreen are all standard, with HD Surround Vision available. RS, from $33,900 is the sharp-looking one, with black mirrors, moldings, emblems and badging, a flat-bottom steering wheel, standard 19-inch wheels and available 20-inch machined wheels. ACTIV, also from $33,900 takes the other road entirely, with all-terrain tires, a uniquely tuned suspension and Evotex with sueded microfiber seating. Add $2,000 to any of the three for all-wheel drive.

Electric: LT 1, LT 2 and RS

LT 1, from $34,995 is the one that delivers the 319-mile figure, and it arrives with over 20 standard driver assistance features including Adaptive Cruise Control and the 17.7-inch touchscreen. LT 2, from $41,795 adds a heated steering wheel, heated front seats and heated mirrors, HD Surround Vision, wireless phone charging, a power liftgate and roof rails. RS, from $44,095 tops the range with unique front and rear fascias, black exterior accents, a flat-bottom steering wheel and 21-inch black wheels.

Technology and Connectivity

The gas Equinox centers on an 11.3-inch diagonal touchscreen with Google built-in, OnStar connectivity and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, so your maps and music are where you expect them on the AR-102 run to Centerton. The Equinox EV goes considerably further, with a 17.7-inch center touchscreen that Chevrolet calls the largest among electric vehicles in its class, Google built-in with available Google Gemini, and available Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance. Super Cruise is an Equinox EV feature and is not offered on the gas Equinox for 2027, which is worth weighing if long stretches of highway are a regular part of your week.

Interior and Comfort

Both are two-row, five-passenger vehicles with genuinely usable back seats. The gas Equinox measures 40.0 inches of front headroom and 40.9 inches of front legroom, with 39.2 and 39.9 inches in the second row, and 104.3 cubic feet of passenger volume overall. The Equinox EV rides on a longer 116.3-inch wheelbase and gives up a little rear room for its floor-mounted battery, at 38.5 inches of rear headroom and 38.0 inches of rear legroom, while gaining 41.7 inches of front legroom. Adults fit in the back of either without negotiation, which is what matters on the drive out to Prairie Creek Recreation Area with four aboard.

Cargo and Passenger Space

The gas Equinox holds 29.8 cubic feet behind the rear seats and 63.5 cubic feet with them folded, which swallows a weekend at Beaver Lake or a Crystal Bridges run with the strollers. The Equinox EV holds 26.4 cubic feet behind the rear seats and 57.2 cubic feet maximum. Both are rated to tow up to 1,500 pounds when properly equipped, enough for a small utility trailer or a pair of personal watercraft. The gas Equinox stands 183.2 inches long on a 107.5-inch wheelbase with 8.08 inches of ground clearance; the Equinox EV is 190.6 inches long with 6.4 inches of clearance.

Safety and Driver Assistance

Sort the standard driver assistance by the roads it actually works on. The I-49 corridor between Bella Vista and Fayetteville concertinas twice a day, and that is where Forward Collision Alert, the Following Distance Indicator and Automatic Emergency Braking earn their place. Two-lane county roads after dark are a different problem, and IntelliBeam handling the high beams plus Front Pedestrian Braking matter more there than anything else on the list. Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning covers the long dull stretch out toward Siloam Springs. Those six make up Chevy Safety Assist, and they are part of a standard count of more than 15 on every 2027 Equinox.

Options worth having in this market: HD Surround Vision for angled downtown parking, Rear Cross Traffic Braking for backing out of a packed lot at Crystal Bridges, plus Side Bicyclist Alert and the Rear Camera Mirror. The Equinox EV starts from a higher floor of more than 20 standard features and includes Adaptive Cruise Control on the base LT 1, adding Enhanced Auto Park Assist, Intersection Auto Emergency Braking and, further up the range, Super Cruise for hands-free highway miles.

Which 2027 Equinox Is Right for You?

• Commuting I-49 daily from Bella Vista or Lowell and charging at home is easy: Equinox EV LT 1. The 319-mile range means you plug in weekly, not nightly.
• You want the lowest monthly payment and a proven, simple ownership story: gas Equinox LT front-wheel drive at $29,000.
• Gravel county roads, a cabin drive, or winter confidence around Pea Ridge: Equinox ACTIV with all-wheel drive, on its all-terrain tires and retuned suspension.
• You want it to look like the most expensive car in the school line: Equinox RS, gas or electric.
• Long highway stretches to Siloam Springs or the XNA airport run: Equinox EV LT 2 or RS with available Super Cruise.

A well-equipped pick most shoppers land on is the gas LT with all-wheel drive at $31,000, or the Equinox EV LT 2 at $41,795 if the home charging is sorted.
