For people who are bad mouthing gm over this car.Motor trend mag.sept.2009 issue,new cars,call the 2010 equinox a transformed crossover,and the over all best in class...
And that interior for a 30k vehicle? Are these idiots kidding me. I'm starting to take this personally since the government is throwing my money at these buffoons.
Okay. If you don't think the Equinox is good, speak to the engineers who built this car that start's at only 22k, get's 32 miles per gallon hwy, better than your everyday Japanese mid-sized crossover, and have you ever seen the interior of this crossover? And for your information, and all those other haters out there, GM is getting better and better year by year. They have SUV's that can hold 8 passengers and get 24 mpg hwy, and their cars such as Cobalt XFE get 37 mpg on the highway. Ur so dum.
Too fat, overpriced, overstyled, too slow. About sums up why GM is where they are right now. Pricing your vehicle 4k+ above the more reliable Japanese competition that is eating your lunch is a good idea on what planet?
is it me or am i the only one sick of the universal steering wheel GM always does...no matter how nice the car looks on the outside the steering wheel says alot about the interior because thats what your looking at and holding most of the time lol! so why cant they change the steering wheels?
This vehicle is much better than this video shows. Once they are in the dealers, go and have a look. I work where they are made and they are truly very nice. They are not big by any means and are not supposed to be. It is a midsize CUV. I like what we are making now but really like this one. Lots of new features and gadgets and more comfortable.
Hmm 30mpg, thats a big step up from the current model. 24-30 highway. Thats alot. Wonder if they are going to change the 3.4l v6 to some wimpy i4 or something similar. Hmmm have no clue how they could get 30 with the current engine unless they engineered it really poorly the first time around. I like my Ford Edges better still. Just my taste tho but this does looks nice. Go USA!
Edge is a nice car. For 2010 the Equinox will have a 2.4L 182 HP four cylinder with an optional 3.0L 255 HP V6. My dad has an '08 Equinox Sport with a 3.6L DOHC VVT V6 rated at 264 HP. Drives excellent. Love the optional 6 speed auto it is equipped with. He gets about 21-22 MPG City, 26-28 HWY. Drives real conservatively though. Never guns it or anything. The 3400 pushrod V6 engine was terrible. Manufactured in Shanghai China too (The old 3400 engine, that is) believe it or not.
Yea i like it, the venza is a copy cat but it comes with an i4 standard while the edge has the v6 standard, and they both start at the same price. Hmm those are good numbers, I have never owned an i4, i always opt for the bigger engines but thats cuz i lease and am a manager at ford and they have special deals on leases so im not throwing my money away as others say leases are. Always a v6 or v8. the 3400 was in the equinox ur dad has? I got confused at the end.
No, he's got the Equinox Sport, it has a 3.6L V6 with DOHC and VVT. Same engine that's in the base Camaro and CTS and base STS. Just a great car to drive around. I think Chevrolet has a winner with the Equinox, especially the 2010 lineup. I don't think the Traverse and Equinox can be beat, throw the Malibu in there and I think you've got three of the best cars on the market. I really hope people realize that and buy these things! Ford's 2010 lineup is impressive as well.
Oh wow, that thing must cruise. Yea those are both great cars and i think the malibu looks very nice. The front grill looks so nice imo but the back im not too crazy about. I really like the new fusion, edge, f150, 2010 taurus, and the flex are all great cars. Im gunna have a hard time choosing my next lease in a few months the new mustang looks sweet, im not too crazy about the camaro, looks too plasticy for me. Im waiting for the 5.0l 4v engine to be put in the 2010 f150 and 2011 mustang gt
Helll yeah man! I saw the whole 2010 Ford lineup at the Columbus Auto Show a month or so back. That Taurus looks real nice ...which is funny because I never really liked those cars back in the day. I'm more of a Fusion guy. I hear they're bringing back the SHO?
Are you kidding me ustaiwan01...... toyotas and hondas are ugly as hell. This 2010 Equinox is a next generation vehicle. The toyota cars look like granny's shopping vehicle. Get a life!
star supporting your own products what so goood about toyotya and honda there cars are so bland and boring gm and ford knwo how to make just as good ove cars , and screw crysler get rid ove them they had there chance
LOL u peps kill me! maybe u had a bad experience before with an american cars but u know now they build just as good, and sum cases better than japenese, german companies. They made mistakes in the past but that doesn't mean u have to knock them when they try. Get over it!
yes poeple want good fuel eco, adn styling, but i personally don't want to look at almost all plasic body, the least they could do is make it not look so plasticy..
Not trying to insult anyone, but this sort of cars would never succeed in Europe, though seems to be good and promising car othervise and a large step forward for the becoming modern GM...
Is it just me or do all the new American cars and suv's look the same? I also find them incredible dull, this car is a good example, its all gray inside and out!, and looks just like all the other GM of today! There is no interesting curve on the outside and the dashboard has the sense of desperation With the use of all this siver plastic and is the only fresh/cool part of the car. Honestly do you americans like your cars like that? All the same dull and gray? They might be fine cars othervise.
Chevrolet has almost always had the Double Grill, call it a trademark if you will. They can only make what people are willing to buy, don't know about you but not everyone is rich enough to go buy a top of the line car.
you dont see all of the import cars looking the same do you. Me myself im not rich you dont see honda for example having all of there cars looking the same and they are still fairly affordable even with nissan and toyota.
Out of all the american automakers, GM, in my opinion, has definitely been the leader in reliability. I consider them OK cars, but they have nothing on european and japanese automakers. Though, in the defense of the US automakers...I hate japanese cars.
That news has not been delivered on motortrend, caranddriver, TTAC, or anywhere else. And such a big piece of news would have made it out in the 13 hours since you posted that comment.

You people need to diversify your news sources (if you did, you'd know that every auto manufacturer in world is getting government-backed loans right now, simply due to the fact that banks aren't lending anything - it's only in America that they made a big deal out of it because it's the only free market and... Well, I'm running out of text to explain the core reason(s)).
They aren't going bankrupt but they have shortages due to the current market conditions aswell, you just don't hear about it cause all the focus is on the American's. And the American auto makers are have issues mostly due to the fact that the U.S. is the world leader in the market, basicly putting more pressure on the exporting/importing values. And VW isn't European fyi...
Oh yeah, don't get me wrong both BMW, Mercedes and VW are suffering and shutting down production for the time being of some models, but I don't think they are in as much trouble as the American manufacturers.
here is a thought for those FAT CATS at the top! use some of u're own profits and throw it into R&D i know it may sound CRAZY why would a cut throat capitalist re invest THEIR own profit? LOLLL DUMB JACKASSES newayz if anyone wants to chat this up i'm all for it.. i'm bored and i just shovelled 4 feet of snow off my driveway... TO MAKE ROOM FOR MY TOYOTA COROLLA BABY!!! YEAAAA beat that mofo on gas!!! lol
did he say GM and fuel efficient in the same sentence LOL!! let me throw this to y'all check it... IN OVER 100 YEARS OF AUTOMOBILE DEVELOPMENT HOW ARE U STILL GIVING ME ( aka THE INTERNATIONAL CONSUMER) THE SAME COMBUSTION ENGIN WRAPPED UP IN A NICE BOX EACH YEAR!!! innovation? frills? extra shit a car doesn't need? please GM, Chrysler and Ford show me something new! We the consumers are fed up!
Dude you're just a dumb hippy that no one likes. GM released an electric car in the early 90's, no one wanted one cause there was no fuel shortage. Also in the late 80's GM and Toyota began a venture together known as "Geo", small fuel efficient economy cars. Toyota dropped out because there was no demand for fuel efficiency...So now years later theres a fuel problem and gay douche bags like you want to bitch at the very people who tried avoiding it...real nice dick head.
Lol you're a dumb ass dude. This model hasn't even been released yet but your obviously an expert...yah real believable moron. And to say GM cars peel paint? How stupid are you anyways? Dude my friends 2001 Civic has all kinds of sun damage to the interior and paint, both my 99 grand prix and 86 camaro have flawless stock paint...Good try though dip shit.
Quality is the name of the game. American consumers are loosing faith in American cars due to this one single word, QUALITY! It's not a problem of mismanagement, this is the problem of both management and UAW.
I'd argue that quality isn't a problem and hasn't been for the last 5 years or so, but that stigma they have to get around is the real problem. The Stigma is the real problem, thats going to take years to erase, decades even.
This car is an imitation of the Toyota Fortuner which was released in the year 2004 as one of the models of the International Innovative Multi-Purpose Vehicles (5 different vehicles in the same platform). It was released in 140 countries not in America.
Do you retarded hippy kids not know that GM and Toyota have stocks in each other? They been in multiple ventures together since the late 80's...Its nothing new you dip shit.
Europe makes some of the world best vehicles and they love some American cars BUT they also love their own manufacturers as well. They dont find it the cool thing to do to bash their own job making industry just for fun. They know that if there were ever a need to go to war that you couldnt IMPORT military equipment. What would America do if we had to go to war and had no industry to convert into making military equipment? Ask the Japanese to? Don't think so Show some dignity you spoiled people.
You have to understand that the Japanese market depends on the U.S.'s rate of importing. The Japanese dollar has no actual strength behind it, they simply depend of exporting over importing placencies.
You completely miss the point. The fact is that our money never gets returned to this country. It goes there and pays their people to develop and grow their country but never gives a dime back to this country do further grow the US infrastructure etc..
Lol the American dollar is the second strongest dollar right now you ignorant moron. And the U.S. doesn't import Chinese cars because they're complete crap. Look at some Chinese crash test ratings before you run your retarded ignorant mouth fool.
This is riding on GM's Theta platform, the unibody Equinox is mechanically similar to the Saturn vue. Same as the Cadillac srx, and GMC terrain. Thanks.
Wow, nice vehicle, it's about time GM comes forward with someting really new, but what about reliability? GM should team up with the best car manufacturer;TOYOTA!
the LT LTZ LT2 and LS all have interchangeable engines and they all look the same and same drive train weather it be AWD or FWD they all look the same unless your under the hood i should know because i manufacture them in canada.
WHO CARES ABOUT THE VIDEO EDITING. You people know nothing about compact SUVs. Time to get over your stupid childish bias against GM and realize it's a much better vehicle all around than anything TOYOTA or HONDA or HYUNDAI or any other comparable manufacturer builds. GROW UP. AMERICAN CARS ARE JUST AS GOOD AS FOREIGN ONES. TRY DRIVING ONE FIRST INSTEAD OF BEING CHILDISH FOLLOWERS THINKING ITS THE COOL THING TO DO TO BASH AMERICAN CAR COMPANIES THAT PROVIDE AMERICANS JOBS.
I can't stand people like you. You have no knowledge of the economy and its products and you claim you do. Do you know what mercantilism is BUD? look it up some time as it represents the Japanese economy and it's not FREE trade. You buy a Japanese car and those profits go back to Japan who doesn't buy American cars and puts super strict import restrictions on any of our products. EUROPEAN manufacturers buy our cars and products. THEY LOVE THEM!!. So American manufacturers do make better cars.
One reason this thing doesn't get amazing fuel economy is because American car makers think it is necessary to put V6's in all of their new cars. PUT A FREAKING 4 CYLINDER IN THE DAMN CAR! And also, if this thing had a Honda or Toyota badge on it, people would buy it. Chevy, please make a hybrid version. Then, only then, will sales go up. Your stupid Yukon hybrid is useless and is not making sales go up. Grow a brain.
Built in Mexico I'll bet!!

did he say GM and fuel efficient in the same sentence LOL!! let me throw this to y'all check it... IN OVER 100 YEARS OF AUTOMOBILE DEVELOPMENT HOW ARE U STILL GIVING ME ( aka THE INTERNATIONAL CONSUMER) THE SAME COMBUSTION ENGIN WRAPPED UP IN A NICE BOX EACH YEAR!!! innovation? frills? extra shit a car doesn't need? please GM, Chrysler and Ford show me something new! We the consumers are fed up!

Dude you're just a dumb hippy that no one likes. GM released an electric car in the early 90's, no one wanted one cause there was no fuel shortage. Also in the late 80's GM and Toyota began a venture together known as "Geo", small fuel efficient economy cars. Toyota dropped out because there was no demand for fuel efficiency...So now years later theres a fuel problem and gay douche bags like you want to bitch at the very people who tried avoiding it...real nice dick head.

I drive a 06 maxima and a pathfinder moron
The american dollar is going the way of the dodo bird and it wont be long.
I wouldnt pay much for any paint peeling valve cover leaking GM especially not the equinox its too cheap and they over charge for weakness.
dave777blaster 3 years ago
Lol you're a dumb ass dude. This model hasn't even been released yet but your obviously an expert...yah real believable moron. And to say GM cars peel paint? How stupid are you anyways? Dude my friends 2001 Civic has all kinds of sun damage to the interior and paint, both my 99 grand prix and 86 camaro have flawless stock paint...Good try though dip shit.

Quality is the name of the game. American consumers are loosing faith in American cars due to this one single word, QUALITY! It's not a problem of mismanagement, this is the problem of both management and UAW.
originalbatutuy 3 years ago
I'd argue that quality isn't a problem and hasn't been for the last 5 years or so, but that stigma they have to get around is the real problem. The Stigma is the real problem, thats going to take years to erase, decades even.

This car is an imitation of the Toyota Fortuner which was released in the year 2004 as one of the models of the International Innovative Multi-Purpose Vehicles (5 different vehicles in the same platform). It was released in 140 countries not in America.

Europe makes some of the world best vehicles and they love some American cars BUT they also love their own manufacturers as well. They dont find it the cool thing to do to bash their own job making industry just for fun. They know that if there were ever a need to go to war that you couldnt IMPORT military equipment. What would America do if we had to go to war and had no industry to convert into making military equipment? Ask the Japanese to? Don't think so Show some dignity you spoiled people.

You have to understand that the Japanese market depends on the U.S.'s rate of importing. The Japanese dollar has no actual strength behind it, they simply depend of exporting over importing placencies.
TiKondaRoga 3 years ago
You completely miss the point. The fact is that our money never gets returned to this country. It goes there and pays their people to develop and grow their country but never gives a dime back to this country do further grow the US infrastructure etc..
jmdng03 3 years ago
the American dollar is worth less and they are revising the safety standards to keep out chinese and tata from India
because these players will bankrupt GM Ford and Chrysler.
Detroit has to over charge in order to stay afloat.
it means Americans are being taken to the cleaners.
buy used Japanese cars they will last along time and you will get a better car than a 2010
GM,Ford, or Chrysler.
plus save a ton of money .
dave777blaster 3 years ago
Lol the American dollar is the second strongest dollar right now you ignorant moron. And the U.S. doesn't import Chinese cars because they're complete crap. Look at some Chinese crash test ratings before you run your retarded ignorant mouth fool.

This is riding on GM's Theta platform, the unibody Equinox is mechanically similar to the Saturn vue. Same as the Cadillac srx, and GMC terrain. Thanks.

Not too bad for a Chevy designed in Korea, question is what sort of deals will they offer buyers to entice them to buy...

WHO CARES ABOUT THE VIDEO EDITING. You people know nothing about compact SUVs. Time to get over your stupid childish bias against GM and realize it's a much better vehicle all around than anything TOYOTA or HONDA or HYUNDAI or any other comparable manufacturer builds. GROW UP. AMERICAN CARS ARE JUST AS GOOD AS FOREIGN ONES. TRY DRIVING ONE FIRST INSTEAD OF BEING CHILDISH FOLLOWERS THINKING ITS THE COOL THING TO DO TO BASH AMERICAN CAR COMPANIES THAT PROVIDE AMERICANS JOBS.

I can't stand people like you. You have no knowledge of the economy and its products and you claim you do. Do you know what mercantilism is BUD? look it up some time as it represents the Japanese economy and it's not FREE trade. You buy a Japanese car and those profits go back to Japan who doesn't buy American cars and puts super strict import restrictions on any of our products. EUROPEAN manufacturers buy our cars and products. THEY LOVE THEM!!. So American manufacturers do make better cars.

One reason this thing doesn't get amazing fuel economy is because American car makers think it is necessary to put V6's in all of their new cars. PUT A FREAKING 4 CYLINDER IN THE DAMN CAR! And also, if this thing had a Honda or Toyota badge on it, people would buy it. Chevy, please make a hybrid version. Then, only then, will sales go up. Your stupid Yukon hybrid is useless and is not making sales go up. Grow a brain.
