Jul 17, 2009 - 2010 Chevrolet Equinox Cincinnati Dayton Review

 It's here!  We have the new 2010 Chevrolet Equinox at our Cincinnati and Dayton Chevy dealerships.  I have to say I am impressed.  While GM is faulted for being slow in bringing new designs and improvements to market, they do a very good job in what they deliver.  

We took a test drive and completed a 2010 Chevrolet Equinox Cincinnati review and I was most impressed with the 25% improvement in fuel economy.  The Equinox's 4 cylinder Ecotec engine now has direct injection technology and delivers 182 horsepower (ok - for us old guys - it is amazing how much horsepower they pull out of these 4 cylinder engines these days...).  GM estimates fuel economy at 21 city and 30 mpg highway.  Our customers can drive the 2010 Chevrolet Equinox around Cincinnati, Dayton, and all of Ohio with minimal visits to the gas station.  

Our first Equinox crossover vehicles do not have the optional remote starting system, but we are looking forward to having it soon.  This starting system will allow you to start your Chevy Equinox which will also automatically activate your climate system (as well as your optional heated seats) depending on the outside temperature.  Very nice!

The interior was redesigned and designed (inspired by the Chevrolet Malibu).  A dual cockpit layout features OnStar assistance, XM satellite radio, and blue hued ambient lighting.  Options include Bluetooth, USB Audio input jack, a hard drive radio, and a rear seat DVD entertainment system with headrest mounted screens.  Between the hard drive radio and aux audio jack, is there a need for multiple CD stereos anymore?

This is a great crossover and a big improvement over previous year models - nice job GM!  Come test drive one of our 2010 Chevrolet Equinox Dayton units today!
