1 Answers
The Equinox 1.5T engine is a turbocharged engine paired with a six-speed automatic manual transmission, delivering almost no jerking and a very smooth ride. It's the only four-wheel-drive model in the 1.5T displacement category, offering excellent power and quick acceleration. The back-push feeling is quite noticeable when the accelerator is deeply pressed, and the power becomes very robust once the turbo kicks in after the RPM rises, making overtaking relatively easy. Below are some relevant details about the Equinox: 1. Exterior Design: The Chevrolet Equinox features the latest family-style front face design, with a large chrome-plated front grille connected on both sides to LED-equipped headlight clusters. The front bumper has rich lines, giving it a strong sense of power, and the overall front appearance is very stylish. 2. Configuration: The Equinox is expected to be equipped with the MyLink system featuring a 7-inch or 8-inch screen, a panoramic camera, a forward collision warning system, low-speed automatic braking, lane keeping, one-key start, front seat heating and ventilation, among other features. 3. Powertrain: The Equinox will be powered by two turbocharged gasoline engines, a 1.5T and a 2.0T, with maximum outputs of 172 horsepower and 256 horsepower respectively, and peak torques of 275 N•m and 352 N•m respectively. In terms of transmission, the 1.5T engine is matched with a 6-speed automatic transmission, while the 2.0T engine is paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission. Some models of the new car will also feature a four-wheel-drive system.
