Where are the three major components of the Equinox produced?

The three major components of the Equinox are all domestically produced. The transmission used in this vehicle is a product independently developed by General Motors. The Equinox is a midsize SUV under the Chevrolet brand, equipped with two engines: a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine and a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. The 1.5-liter turbocharged engine delivers a maximum power of 124 kW and a maximum torque of 250 Nm, while the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine offers a maximum power of 191 kW and a maximum torque of 353 Nm. The Equinox features a MacPherson independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. It also offers four-wheel-drive versions equipped with an on-demand four-wheel-drive system.
As a long-term owner of the Equinox, I'm quite familiar with its three major components. The three major components refer to the engine, transmission, and chassis, mostly manufactured in Canada and the United States. The engines are primarily produced in Mexican factories, such as the 1.5T engine version, while the transmissions are mostly made in GM's North American plants. The chassis is assembled in Canada as part of the complete vehicle. I find these components to be reliable in quality, providing a smooth driving experience, especially the chassis design, which ensures excellent stability at high speeds or during turns. I've researched and found that General Motors maintains consistent standards globally, so even the Equinox sold in the Chinese market, with some localized parts, offers good overall durability. Regular maintenance is crucial—don't neglect it. Periodic checks of engine oil and filters can extend the lifespan of these three major components.
