The Car Connection's Take

TCC Rating
6.5
8.0

TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2017 Chevrolet Equinox is a solid compact crossover SUV. What it lacks in advanced powertrains, it makes up for in available tech. The 2016 Honda CR-V has its priorities in the right place, with lots of space and features—but performance takes a back seat.
