2023 Chevrolet Equinox vs 2023 Chevrolet Traverse

In the 2023 Chevrolet SUV lineup, customers can find a wide range of options to suit their preferences.

Additionally, the Equinox runs on a 6-speed automatic transmission, while the Traverse boasts a 9-speed automatic.

Appearance

Size is essential for SUV buyers, and the Traverse's 205.9-inch length gives it a long, athletic appearance. In contrast, the Equinox's 183.1-inch length offers a lean and sporty look. Both models feature Chevrolet's automatic on/off LED headlamps, with distinct designs. The Equinox features thick LED headlamps with a sweeping upward wing look, while the Traverse boasts slightly angled thin LED headlamps. Tinted glass and impressive wheel choices are available for both models, with a fully loaded Equinox sporting 18" aluminum wheels and the High Country Traverse adding 20" polished aluminum wheels and 20" all-season blackwall tires.
