About This 2018 Chevrolet Equinox LS

The 2018 Chevrolet Equinox was a freshly redesigned model year, meaning this vehicle benefits from Chevrolet's ground-up rethink of the popular crossover. The result was a lighter, more fuel-efficient, and more refined SUV compared to its predecessor. At just over 84,000 miles, this Equinox sits comfortably in the sweet spot for a used vehicle — past the initial depreciation curve but with plenty of life remaining in the drivetrain and major components. It's a realistic, everyday driver that doesn't compromise on features or capability.
 

2018 Chevrolet Equinox Performance and Engine

Under the hood sits a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine paired with a smooth 6-speed automatic transmission with overdrive. This combination delivers an estimated 170 horsepower and 203 lb-ft of torque — enough pull for highway merging, loaded grocery runs, and everything in between. The turbocharged setup also keeps fuel economy strong, with real-world figures typically landing in the high 20s to low 30s on the highway.
 

All-Wheel Drive for Michigan Winters

This Equinox is equipped with AWD, which is a genuine advantage for anyone navigating Detroit-area winters in Wayne County. Whether you're dealing with snow-packed surface streets in Dearborn, icy conditions near Downriver communities, or wet expressway ramps on I-94, the AWD system gives you added confidence and traction when conditions turn unpredictable.
 

Chevrolet Equinox Features and Interior

The LS trim serves as the entry point into the Equinox lineup, but it's far from stripped down. Standard features on the 2018 Equinox LS include a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, a rearview camera, Bluetooth connectivity, and available USB charging ports. The cabin offers a comfortable seating position with good sightlines, and the rear seat provides adequate legroom for adults on longer trips. Cargo space behind the rear seats is one of this class's stronger points, making it a practical pick for families and commuters alike.
 

Chevrolet Equinox Reliability and Ownership

The 2018 Equinox earned solid marks from owners and third-party reliability analysts following the redesign. Chevrolet addressed many of the earlier generation's complaints with improved build quality and a more modern powertrain. Owners frequently cite the comfortable ride, user-friendly infotainment, and strong fuel economy as top positives. At this mileage range, routine maintenance items like spark plugs, transmission fluid, and brake components are worth reviewing — but none of these represent unusual concerns for a well-kept example. Overall, the 2018 Equinox has proven to be a dependable daily driver with a lower total cost of ownership than many competitors in its segment.
