Jennings Auto Group – What to Know About the 2026 Chevrolet Equinox
If you are exploring a compact SUV that blends everyday usability with standout technology and confident style, the 2026 Chevrolet Equinox belongs at the top of your list. At Jennings Auto Group, we focus on helping drivers match features to real-world needs — whether that means a comfortable commute, weekend travel, or the peace of mind that comes from modern safety and driver assistance. Thoughtful interior upgrades, an impressive suite of standard features, and a lineup that includes LT, RS, and ACTIV trims make the latest Equinox a compelling choice for a wide range of lifestyles, serving Palmyra, Jacksonville, and Springfield.
From the driver’s seat, the Equinox centers your day around clarity and convenience. The large 11.3-inch diagonal infotainment touch-screen and 11-inch diagonal Driver Information Center put navigation, apps, and vehicle data where you need it. Available wireless phone charging, Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, and Google built-in with Google Assistant help streamline routines — from voice-controlled directions to hands-free calls. Inside, you will find smart storage solutions, a useful pass-through center console, and an available hands-free AutoSense Power Liftgate to simplify loading when your hands are full.
Highlights that matter every day
- Screen tech, simplified: An 11.3-inch diagonal infotainment display pairs with an 11-inch Driver Information Center — both designed for quick visibility and intuitive control via touch or voice.
- Safety suite, standard: Over 15 standard safety and driver assistance features help support your awareness, including Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Forward Collision Alert, Following Distance Indicator, and IntelliBeam, with available HD Surround Vision, Rear Cross Traffic Braking, and Side Bicyclist Alert.
- Cargo versatility, built in: The 60/40 split-folding rear seat and generous max cargo capacity make it easy to adapt for errands or road trips, while hidden under-floor storage helps keep valuables out of view.
- Confident performance, on demand: A well-balanced 1.5L turbo engine and standard Drive Mode Selector deliver composed performance, with available all-wheel drive for added traction and up to 1,500 lbs towing capability when properly equipped.
Equinox stands out on the road with a modern, expressive look — and each trim adds a distinct personality. LT offers a refined, value-forward configuration for daily driving. RS turns up the presence with a unique grille, sporty lower fascia, Black emblems and badging, available two-tone Black roof, and a flat-bottom steering wheel. For drivers who want a rugged aesthetic, ACTIV brings an adventurous edge with all-terrain tires, a uniquely tuned suspension, roof rails, and durable Evotex and sueded microfiber seating surfaces.
