Why should I also consider these? X

All of these competitors to the 2009 Chevrolet Equinox feel considerably more refined.

The Saturn Vue has underpinnings that are related to those of the Equinox, but its 2008 redesign puts it on a higher plane than the Equinox.

The Ford Escape was reengineered for the 2008 model year, and it’s surprisingly responsive to drive.

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

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

The top-rated Subaru Forester is another model to look at; it’s arguably the safety champ in this class and has the best handling.
