About This 2019 Chevrolet Equinox LT

This 2019 Equinox LT is a four-door sport utility vehicle powered by a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine paired with a smooth-shifting six-speed automatic transmission. At 144,073 miles, this SUV has clearly served as a daily driver, and for buyers comfortable with higher-mileage vehicles, the Equinox platform is known for its durability when properly maintained.

The LT trim sits in the middle of the Equinox lineup — above the base LS and below the Premier — meaning it comes with a meaningful set of features without the premium price tag. Front-wheel drive keeps things simple and cost-effective for Michigan driving across all four seasons, particularly in urban environments like Detroit where traction control and stability systems handle most road conditions effectively.

2019 Chevrolet Equinox Performance and Engine

Turbocharged 1.5-Liter Four-Cylinder

The 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder produces 170 horsepower and 203 lb-ft of torque, which is genuinely responsive for a compact crossover. The turbo spools up quickly in daily driving, making merging onto I-75, navigating the Lodge Freeway, or running errands around Wayne County feel effortless.
 

Six-Speed Automatic Transmission

The six-speed automatic with overdrive is a well-proven transmission in this application. It shifts smoothly and keeps the engine in its powerband efficiently, contributing to respectable real-world fuel economy — typically in the range of 26 to 31 miles per gallon on the highway. For a commuter vehicle in and around Detroit, that kind of efficiency adds up over time.

Chevrolet Equinox LT Features and Interior

The 2019 Equinox LT comes equipped with Chevrolet's MyLink infotainment system with a touchscreen display supporting Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, making it easy to stay connected on the go. The interior is designed with practicality in mind — comfortable seating for five, a rear cargo area that handles grocery runs and weekend gear with ease, and intuitive controls throughout.

The LT trim typically adds features like a heated driver's seat, remote keyless entry, a rear vision camera, Teen Driver technology, and available Wi-Fi hotspot capability. The cabin materials reflect a thoughtful step up from base trim, with soft-touch surfaces in key areas and well-organized storage throughout. Rear passengers have adequate legroom for adult comfort, and the split-folding rear seat allows flexible cargo configurations.

Chevrolet Equinox Reliability and Ownership

The third-generation Equinox, launched for the 2018 model year, was a significant improvement over its predecessor in terms of efficiency and refinement. The 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, while occasionally subject to oil consumption concerns in earlier production runs, has generally proven to be a reliable unit when owners stay current on oil changes and maintenance schedules.

Owner feedback on the 2019 Equinox consistently highlights the comfortable ride, user-friendly technology, and low running costs as major strengths. Common ownership advice includes keeping up with coolant system maintenance, monitoring oil levels between changes, and ensuring the transmission fluid is serviced at appropriate intervals — all sensible steps for any high-mileage vehicle. With proper care, the Equinox platform is capable of well over 150,000 miles of reliable service, which means this one still has plenty of road left ahead of it.
