TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2018 Chevrolet Equinox is a needed step forward for the brand and a solid compact crossover. It's hard to imagine a compact crossover better aligned with the needs of most buyers than the 2017 Honda CR-V. The 2017 Mazda CX-5 takes a lot of small steps forward, but are any of them big enough changes to sway buyers?
