More Info

Why should I also consider these? X

There are plenty of compact crossovers competing for your dollar.

The best in the class of five-seaters is the Honda CR-V, which has controversial new styling but still offers the best dynamics and assembly quality in the class.

The Ford Escape and Saturn Vue have been reengineered for the 2008 model year, the Saturn much more heavily.

Both are offered with hybrid powertrains, but neither has as much second-row seating room as the Equinox.

All three feel considerably more refined than the Equinox, however.
