Is the 2019 Chevrolet Equinox a good car?

Yes — the 2019 Chevrolet Equinox earns a 4.7/5 user rating and a 7.17/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Safety at 9/10.

Owners consistently praise the smooth ride, spacious interior, and good fuel economy. Many also like the powerful engine and the useful features that improve day-to-day driving.

Is the 2019 Chevrolet Equinox reliable?

Owners rate it 4.7/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a dependable, trouble-free ownership experience, with drivers repeatedly highlighting comfort, fuel economy, and features they can count on. That kind of praise usually matters most when you plan to keep a used SUV for several years.

The expert evaluation also describes it as a practical, everyday crossover rather than something fragile or overly complicated. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is less about the model’s basic durability and more about choosing one with the right equipment and condition.

What should I look for when buying a used 2019 Chevrolet Equinox?

At 64.8% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and then focus your inspection on bodywork, alignment, and signs of prior repair quality. Because visibility and camera equipment are a notable part of this model year’s appeal, make sure those systems work properly. It also makes sense to prioritize trim content, since some desirable features are pushed into higher trims or packages.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base L trim is special-order only and lacks a spare tire, a compass, and most paint choices, while the LS adds those basics back but still keeps equipment limited. The LT is the real starting point if you want a more usable mix of features, and the Premier is where advanced safety equipment becomes available.
• Powertrain: You get three engines, including a 1.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder, a 1.6-liter turbodiesel, and a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. The 1.5-liter is efficient but underpowered, while the 2.0-liter is the strongest choice and pairs with a 9-speed automatic.
• Safety package: Blind-spot monitoring is not standard until the Premier trim and is only optional on the LT. Adaptive cruise and pedestrian detection with auto braking are available only as an expensive package on the top two trims.
• Infotainment: The updated system uses an 8-inch touchscreen on equipped models, and it supports standard Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The new HD camera setup is a major visibility upgrade, especially for a vehicle with weak outward sightlines.
• Fuel efficiency: The 1.5-liter engine is rated at 26 mpg city and 32 highway with FWD, while the 1.6-liter turbodiesel is rated at 28 mpg city and 39 highway. The 2.0-liter turbo with AWD is rated at 22 mpg city and 28 highway, with a combined rating of 24.

Which 2019 Chevrolet Equinox trim should I buy?

The 2019 Chevrolet Equinox is offered in 4 trim levels: L, LS, LT, Premier.

Here's the short version:

• L: This is the cheapest entry point, but it is special-order only and comes stripped of basics like a spare tire and compass. It makes sense only if you are chasing the lowest possible price and can live with the limited equipment.
• LS: This is the real starting trim, since it restores the spare tire and compass and opens up more paint choices. It is still fairly bare, so it works best if you want the lowest in-stock trim and do not need many extras.
• LT: This is the best-value trim because it unlocks the more desirable equipment mix, including the stronger engine options and the updated infotainment and camera tech when properly equipped. If you want the most balanced used Equinox, this is the trim to target.
• Premier: This is the trim to buy if you want the most complete safety and convenience content, including access to advanced driver-assistance features that are not standard lower down. It suits you best if you want the most fully equipped version and are willing to pay for it.

Blind-spot monitoring is only optional on the LT and standard only on the Premier, while adaptive cruise and pedestrian detection with auto braking are reserved for an expensive package on the top two trims.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2019 Chevrolet Equinox?

This is a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you have room to shop carefully without expecting deep bargains everywhere.

• Deal availability: 31.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 6,096 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.24% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 64.8% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $14,216, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2019 Chevrolet Equinox's resale value?

The current average of $14,216 sits slightly below last year's $15,839.

That decline suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you as a buyer today but may limit upside if you plan to resell soon. If you buy at the right price and keep the vehicle in strong condition, you reduce the risk of taking a bigger hit later.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.7/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2019 Chevrolet Equinox safe?

The 2019 Chevrolet Equinox does very well in both government and independent testing, scoring top marks in both sets of tests.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

The safety story is mixed in a useful way for used shoppers: the core crash performance is strong, but some equipment is trim-dependent. Blind-spot monitoring is not standard until the Premier trim and is only optional on the LT, while adaptive cruise and pedestrian detection with auto braking are available only as an expensive package on the top two trims.

The headlights are the main caveat, since both the lower-trim halogens and upper-trim HIDs receive a Marginal rating from the IIHS. The available Lights and Bright package on the LT addresses that with LEDs front and back.

Should I buy a 2019 Chevrolet Equinox or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2019 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2019 if:

• 31.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 64.8% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.24% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.7/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2019 adds HD rear-view and surround-view cameras, plus an updated infotainment system.

Consider the 2018 if:

• At $12,508, the 2018 costs less than the current year's $14,216 average.
• It is a redesigned compact SUV with a more direct role in the segment.

Consider the 2020 if:

• At $15,620, the 2020 costs more than the current year's $14,216 average.
• It adds standard advanced safety features and easy-to-use technology.

The bottom line: If you want the best mix of price, updated tech, and strong owner satisfaction, the 2019 is the smart middle ground. If your budget is tighter, the 2018 can save you money, while price-sensitive shoppers should compare carefully against the 2020 only if they want the newer standard-equipment mix.
