Used 2022 Chevrolet Equinox for Sale nearRochester, NH

How much does the 2022 Chevrolet Equinox cost?

Prices have softened 11.81% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 7,337 listings available, which suggests solid inventory for comparison shopping.

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, smooth ride, and spacious cabin, and they also like the modern-feeling features. The main trade-offs are that it can feel basic compared with other SUVs and lacks some convenience touches, such as programmable driver’s seats. For you, that means the Equinox makes the most sense if you want a practical, easy-to-live-with small crossover rather than something especially exciting. It also lines up well with shoppers who value straightforward technology and everyday usability. Good and great deals account for 35.0% of listings, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2022 Chevrolet Equinox reliable?

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

The owner feedback points to a dependable, trouble-free ownership experience, with comfort and fuel efficiency showing up as recurring strengths. The expert review also describes it as easy to live with and practical for everyday use, which supports the idea that it should be a straightforward vehicle to own. Chevy’s three-year, 36,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty and five-year, 60,000-mile powertrain coverage add some reassurance for used buyers. Long-term ownership risk is still worth managing with a careful history check, especially if you want to avoid surprises.

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

Accident-free inventory is solid at 81.8% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still run a history report on any candidate and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the vehicle has higher mileage or incomplete service records. Focus on overall condition, because the Equinox’s value proposition depends heavily on whether it has been maintained well and kept free of avoidable wear. Pay close attention to how the transmission feels on a test drive and whether the cabin and tech features work as expected.

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 come standard with cloth seats and perforated leather is available. The RS gives the Equinox more personality, but the base setup is more straightforward.
• 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. Front-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is available.
• Safety package: Standard driver aids 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. Adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-change alert, surround-view camera, front park assist, rear park assist, and automatic parking assist are available.
• 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.
• Fuel efficiency: EPA ratings are 28 mpg combined with front-wheel drive, and all-wheel-drive models lose 1 mpg in each category.

Which 2022 Chevrolet Equinox trim should I buy?

The 2022 Chevrolet Equinox is offered in 4 trim levels: LS, LT, RS, Premier.

Here's the short version:

• LS: This is the entry point, and it gives you the core Equinox experience at the lowest price. It makes sense if you want the basics and plan to keep the budget tight.
• LT: This is the best-value choice for most shoppers because it sits in the middle of the lineup and gives you a more balanced mix of equipment and price. If you want the smartest buy, this is the trim to start with.
• RS: This trim adds the blacked-out styling, darkened wheels, and a more distinctive cabin treatment. It suits you if appearance matters and you want the Equinox to feel a little more personal.
• Premier: This is the top trim, so it is the one to consider if you want the most upscale version of the Equinox lineup. It is the trim to look at if you want the fullest feature set.

Some safety and driver-assistance features remain optional rather than standard, so check each listing carefully for equipment differences.

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 carefully and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 35.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 7,337 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 11.81% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 81.8% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $19,209, 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 $19,209 sits slightly below last year's $21,782.

That decline suggests the Equinox has already absorbed a meaningful amount of depreciation, which can help future sellers if they buy at the right price today. If you purchase near the current market average or below it, you may have a better chance of limiting your loss later. The model’s broad appeal as a practical compact crossover should help keep demand steady, but condition and mileage will matter a lot when it is time to resell. 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 earns Good IIHS scores in most crash tests, but it received a Marginal rating in the updated side crash test and 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 park assist, rear park assist, and automatic parking assist. The Marginal 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:

• 35.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 81.8% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 11.81% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.78/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It adds wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus a new RS model and available parking-assist features.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $21,515, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $19,209 average.
• It adds a little extra engine power and a more sophisticated braking system.

The bottom line: If you want the better value, the 2022 is the stronger buy because prices are lower and the market still offers plenty of inventory. If you are willing to spend more for a slightly updated version, the 2023 is the better secondary path, but price-sensitive buyers should focus on the 2022.
