How much does the 2022 Chevrolet Equinox cost?

Prices have softened 12.12% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 7,011 listings available, which suggests solid inventory for shoppers comparing prices and trims.

Is the 2022 Chevrolet Equinox a good car?

Yes — the 2022 Chevrolet Equinox earns a 4.78/5 user rating and a 6.83/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Technology at 8/10.

Owners consistently praise its comfort, fuel efficiency, and spacious cabin, and they also point to the smooth ride and modern features as reasons it feels like a good value. The overview also frames it as a practical small crossover with straightforward technology, which fits buyers who want an easy-to-live-with SUV rather than something flashy. On the downside, the expert review calls out fairly pedestrian performance and an irritating transmission, and it also notes limited cargo space. Even so, the Equinox makes the most sense if you want comfort, usability, and useful tech in a compact SUV, and 33.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.

Is the 2022 Chevrolet Equinox reliable?

Owners rate it 4.78/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner summary points to a dependable-feeling ownership experience, with comfort, fuel efficiency, and a smooth ride all reinforcing the sense that this is a trouble-free daily driver for many shoppers. The expert review also describes it as easy to live with and practical, which supports the idea that it should be straightforward to own over time. Chevy’s warranty coverage adds some reassurance, including a three-year, 36,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty and a five-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that a well-used example may show the effects of age and mileage more than major mechanical drama, so condition matters a lot.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Chevrolet Equinox?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 80.5% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still run a vehicle history report on any candidate and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the price looks unusually attractive. Focus on overall condition, maintenance records, and how the transmission and infotainment system feel in real-world use. Because this model year mixes useful updates with some clear compromises, the best examples are the ones that have been cared for consistently.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The RS adds black exterior trim, darkened 19-inch wheels, a black interior with red stitching, and a model-specific shift knob, while most trim levels get cloth seats as standard equipment and perforated leather upholstery is available. The base setup is more straightforward, so the RS is the trim that adds the most personality if you want a sportier look.
• Powertrain: You get a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine with 170 horsepower and 203 pound-feet of torque, paired with a six-speed automatic transmission and standard front-wheel drive or available all-wheel drive. It has useful low-end torque for city driving, but the engine can feel coarse at higher speeds.
• Safety package: Standard equipment includes automatic emergency braking with pedestrian braking, forward collision warning, following distance indicator, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, automatic high beams, a Safety Alert Seat, and Teen Driver. Optional features include adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-change alert, a surround-view camera system, front and rear park assist, and automatic parking assist.
• Infotainment: A 7-inch touchscreen is standard, along with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bluetooth, SiriusXM satellite radio, and a built-in 4G LTE WiFi hotspot. Higher trims get an 8-inch touchscreen and a 4.2-inch instrument-cluster screen, and the system is easy to use.
• Fuel efficiency: The Equinox is rated at 28 mpg combined with front-wheel drive, and all-wheel-drive models lose 1 mpg in each category. Chevy also offers a three-year, 36,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty and a five-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty.

Which 2022 Chevrolet Equinox trim should I buy?

The 2022 Chevrolet Equinox is offered in 3 trim levels: LS, LT, Premier.

Here's the short version:

• LS: This is the entry point, so it makes sense if you want the lowest-cost way into the Equinox and are comfortable with the standard equipment set.
• LT: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it sits in the middle of the lineup and gives you a more balanced mix of features without pushing all the way to the top.
• Premier: This is the trim to choose if you want the most upscale version of the Equinox and are willing to pay more for it.

Some safety and driver-assistance features remain optional rather than standard, so check the equipment list carefully on any used example.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Chevrolet Equinox?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently but still move quickly on the right listing.

• Deal availability: 33.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 7,011 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 12.12% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 80.5% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $19,030, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Chevrolet Equinox's resale value?

The current average of $19,030 sits slightly below last year's $21,654.

That price decline suggests the Equinox has already absorbed a meaningful amount of depreciation, which can help future sellers if they buy at the right price. A lower entry cost today can make it easier to limit losses later, especially if you choose a clean, well-maintained example. The market also appears to reward practical, easy-to-live-with SUVs, which supports steady demand for this model. Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.78/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Chevrolet Equinox safe?

The 2022 Chevrolet Equinox received top “Good” scores in most Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) crash tests, but received a “Marginal” rating in the updated side crash test. It earns a five-star overall rating from NHTSA, with five-star ratings in frontal and side crash tests and four-star ratings in rollover crash tests.

It earns a 7/10 safety score from our experts.

Standard driver-assistance features include automatic emergency braking with pedestrian braking, forward collision warning, following distance indicator, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, automatic high beams, a Safety Alert Seat, and Teen Driver. Optional features include adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-change alert, a surround-view camera system, front and rear park assist, and automatic parking assist. The Marginal updated side-crash result is the main caveat to keep in mind.

Should I buy a 2022 Chevrolet Equinox or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 33.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 80.5% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 12.12% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.78/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It adds wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus updated styling and available parking-assist tech.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $21,347, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $19,030 average.
• It adds a little extra power and a more sophisticated braking system.

The bottom line: If you want the better value, the 2022 is the smarter buy because it combines lower pricing with strong owner satisfaction and useful tech updates. If you can stretch for a newer model and want the incremental improvements, the 2023 is the cleaner upgrade path. For most price-sensitive shoppers, though, the 2022 is the more compelling choice.
