Is the 2020 Chevrolet Equinox a good car?

Generally — the 2020 Chevrolet Equinox earns 4.2/5 from owners and 7.7/10 from experts. The standout strength is Technology at 10/10.

Owners consistently praise its comfort, fuel economy, and value for money, and they also note that it offers good features for the price. The Equinox is aimed at shoppers who want a practical compact crossover with more foul-weather capability, more cargo space, and a higher driving position than a midsize sedan can provide. The main trade-offs are its fairly pedestrian performance and the complaints some owners raise about lower-trim equipment and interior quality.

Good and great deals account for 30.6% of listings, so there is meaningful room to shop around.

Is the 2020 Chevrolet Equinox reliable?

Owners rate it 4.2/5, a solid signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a dependable, trouble-free ownership experience for many shoppers, with comfort and value showing up repeatedly as strengths. The expert driving notes also frame it as a basic, everyday tool that does its job without drama, which supports the idea that it is built for steady long-term use rather than excitement. Chevrolet also includes a free first maintenance visit, which helps early ownership costs a bit.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that lower-trim examples may feel sparse or less refined than you expect, so condition and equipment level matter.

What should I look for when buying a used 2020 Chevrolet Equinox?

At 63.9% 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 prioritize a close inspection of body panels, paint consistency, and signs of prior repair. Because the model is often bought as a practical daily driver, condition can vary widely depending on how carefully it was maintained and whether it saw heavy commuting or family use. Focus on the trim’s equipment level as well, since lower trims can feel notably less complete.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: L, LS, LT, and Premier are the trims named for this model year. The lower trims are the ones most likely to leave you wanting more equipment, while Premier adds a more upscale look with roof rails, extra chrome detailing, and a more premium cabin presentation.
• Powertrain: The standard 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder makes 170 horsepower and 203 pound-feet of torque, while the optional 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder delivers 252 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. The 1.5-liter is the everyday choice, while the 2.0-liter is the one to seek if you want stronger acceleration and the maximum towing capacity of 3,500 pounds.
• Safety package: Chevy Safety Assist is standard and includes forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, a safe following distance monitor, and automatic high-beam headlights. A reversing camera, rear-seat reminder, and Teen Driver are also standard, while adaptive cruise control, lane change warning, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic warning, and a Safety Alert Seat are available depending on trim.
• Infotainment: Systems use 7-inch or 8-inch touchscreens and include Bluetooth for two devices, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, a 4G LTE WiFi hotspot, and Chevrolet Connected Access. Higher trims add a high-definition display, cloud connectivity, improved voice recognition, HD Radio, satellite radio, navigation, and a Bose premium sound system.
• Fuel efficiency: The 1.5-liter engine is rated at 28 mpg in combined driving, while the 2.0-liter turbo is rated at 24 mpg in combined driving. The 1.5-liter AWD example in testing averaged 24.3 mpg, and the 2.0-liter example averaged 22.1 mpg.

Which 2020 Chevrolet Equinox trim should I buy?

The 2020 Chevrolet Equinox is offered in 4 trim levels: L, LS, LT, and Premier.

Here's the short version:

• L: This is the simplest way into the Equinox, but it is also the trim most likely to feel stripped down if you care about convenience and tech. It makes sense only if your priority is the lowest possible entry point.
• LS: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it keeps the core Equinox strengths intact while adding the everyday usability most buyers want. It is the trim to target if you want a practical, well-rounded setup without paying for the top-end extras.
• LT: This is the trim to consider if you want more flexibility in equipment and the available Midnight Edition appearance package. It suits you if you want a nicer look and more options without jumping all the way to Premier.
• Premier: This is the most upscale version, with the more powerful engine available, all-wheel drive, a power panoramic sunroof, and a more premium cabin presentation. It is the right pick if you want the most content and are willing to pay for it.

Chevy Safety Assist is standard across the lineup, but blind-spot warning is not as broadly accessible as it should be.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2020 Chevrolet Equinox?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently but should move quickly on strong listings.

• Deal availability: 30.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 5,345 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 8.26% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 63.9% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $15,024, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2020 Chevrolet Equinox's resale value?

The current average of $15,024 sits slightly below last year's $16,377.

That softer pricing suggests the Equinox has already absorbed some of its depreciation, which can help future resale stability if you buy at the right price. For a seller, that means your best outcome will depend heavily on condition, mileage, and trim level rather than broad market momentum. Well-equipped examples with strong maintenance records should be easier to move than sparse lower trims.

Vehicles with solid owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.2/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2020 Chevrolet Equinox safe?

The 2020 Chevrolet Equinox is a Top Safety Pick from the IIHS and earns five-star ratings in each NHTSA evaluation, plus a four-star rating for rollover resistance.

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

Chevy Safety Assist is standard, and it includes forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, a safe following distance monitor, and automatic high-beam headlights. A reversing camera, rear-seat reminder, and Teen Driver technology are also standard. Depending on trim, you can add adaptive cruise control, lane change warning, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic warning, and a Safety Alert Seat.

Blind-spot warning is not as widely available as it should be, so you should verify whether the specific listing includes it.

Should I buy a 2020 Chevrolet Equinox or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2020 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2020 if:

• 30.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 63.9% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 8.26% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.2/5 — a solid satisfaction signal.
• It combines standard advanced safety features with easy-to-use technology and a practical, everyday-focused driving character.

Consider the 2019 if:

• At $13,609, the 2019 costs less than the current year's $15,024 average.
• It adds useful camera and infotainment updates after the redesign.

The bottom line: The 2020 is the better all-around pick if you want the strongest mix of safety tech, usability, and market selection. If your main goal is to spend less, the 2019 can make sense, especially if you find one with the right equipment and a clean history.
