  • 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...

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • It looks so asian.

  • uhh, not really. this one just has more curves.

  • futuristic spaceship looking plastic interior-dash and HUD..

    why would they do that?

  • i like the tail lights of the old model better..n the styling too

  • I'm sold. Finally, GM gets it right with a small SUV!

  • 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?

  • Yes sir, 3.5l dual supercharged v6 with 360 hp. Gunna be sweet!

  • w/o the Chevy Emblem anyone can mistake it for some kind of Japanese designed SUV

    can't they be original and stop copying

  • 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

  • Doesn't have that cheap-ass made in china appearance like the first generation.

  • omfg...u HAVE to be kidding me...are they really gonna put the same gauges as the new camaro...into this suv?.....GM FTL!! assholes!

  • i love the pause at the beginning LOL 0:22

  • "magnificant vehicle". Yah except for the fucking symbol on the front. lol. Later GM. Good riddence - you've done enough harm just die quitely.

  • 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!

  • My comment was intended for "eftekharboy".

  • GM is really moving forward with their cars. Cheers from Japan!

  • 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.

  • It's prob aimed at the suberian family's.. but i know what you mean, i look likes the buick thing

  • from the back it kinda looks like the matrix

  • not bad..it looks good...

  • i dont like suv's but for family and stuff i dont know but i dont like this truck

  • wtf is with GM all there POS cars look the fucking same now all of them have the double grill wtf is up with that

  • Brand association and familiarity. This grille is close to the one on the Malibu, and thats the idea-to get people looking for that familiarity.

  • 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.

  • achually ford has the same relibilty as honda and toyota. i like ford and gm both.

  • Maybe now...but they were god awful for a while before they got their shit together...

  • phst ford being reliable...for god sakes we have a 02 windstar we spent over 7 Gs in repairs and it still needs for and ur saying ford is reliable

  • that stinks for you.

  • Wow just because you got a dud doesnt mean theyre all like that....

    Either that, or the world revolves around you?

  • i guess!

  • "they want great value"

    I wonder how GM can fare on that, noting their labor cost is nearly double that of the asian competition, lol.

    I actually like the styling of the vehicle though. If I needed it (for its versatility), then I would surely consider it.

    The interior looks amazing as well!

  • looks horrific

  • GM can not give good value they owe too much money.

    GM sold the most cars but lost money each year that is the legacy of GM

    yeah paint pealing valve cover leaking junk

    GM went from owning 75 % of the market to now

    18% of the market

    because they were stupid and the same stupidity is still there.

    instead of tight engines they made a lot of garbage over the years.

    the people they lost as customers will not go back to GM EVER !

    they are a marked Company .

  • The new Camaro, at 32K for the SS, is not good value?

  • NO v 8 its canceled

    the v 6 will be sold for around 30k

    the 370z is 29k

    The v 6 Camaro is slower than a fwd midsized sedan

  • 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.

    Please cite this story.

  • LOL, I sat in a V8 Camaro 3 days ago.

    And the V6 Camaro rivals the performance of the Genesis Coupe.

  • looks like a saturn vue

  • I love GM car, I experienced new MPV Mazda and GM cars, I prepare GM when it comes to performance, as I experienced and proved it, the problem is not the GM cars, but the dealership mechanics that makes the American Car to get worst in the business, management wake-up.

  • this thing looks great.

  • Looks like the 04 murano. I would like to know more about the engine and trans.

  • I read a lot of bullshit here.

    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)).

    Badges don't make vehicles.

    You make me ashamed to be a petrolhead.

  • I LOVE IT!... however it does look a bit like a mercedes benz ml 320... but still, its awsome! go GM!

  • And the question of the day is:

    Would you buy a second hand European car or a cheaply made new American car. I wonder why Mercedes Benz, BMW and VW are not going bankrupt...

  • 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...

  • Tata and China are gearing up to knock Detroit into the garbage can

    Equinox has a weak engine and a weak chassis

    its a weak vehicle that they want you to pay full dollar for.

    want an expensive cross over pay the extra and get an Infinity or a Toyota.

  • 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

  • Detroit is up against the wall they owe so much money now that they can only sell garbage at full price to stay afloat

    the people buying this crap are the laughing stock of the world.

  • 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.

  • hahaha like me huh

    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.

  • 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.

  • 30 mpg is bull shit lol buy a honda save 10,000

  • Another POS SUV no one is going to buy,Chevy misses the boat....Again

  • Not anymore than Toyota or Honda did when they redid the Sequoia and Pilot. However I suppose those slipped your mind.

  • i like it..

    but a 9 year old could have edited this better than moto trend...

    anyone else feel awkward during the interviews?

  • Chevy is garbage. Just like the BIG 3. 3 BIG piles of garbage.

  • Isn't chevy part of the big 3?

  • Yes, GM, Ford and Chrysler. 3 BIG Pieces of Garbage. :-P

  • dude chevy is owned by GM

  • No it is owned by Toyota.

  • 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.

  • NICE

  • 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..

  • 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 .

  • 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.

  • it looks nice. better than the previous design. it looks like a slimmed down traverse.

  • The interior reminds me of the 2010 Camaro's interior. I would buy it if I had a family...Its a nice car..

  • GM is going bankrupt!

  • Is this gonna be based off of the Saturn Vue...??

    Hope not.

  • the saturn vue is a completley different plat fourm

  • 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...

  • 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!

  • upa what it is, looks like a ssang yong "rodius" good for china.....

  • i like the older ones but i think this new one is ULGY

  • not sure this will help GM very much... hope it does, but i dont think i would jump to buy this car, just not the style i like.

  • They could use some back groud music

  • I'm guessing 30mpg is only in 4 cylinder models and not the V6 model shown here.

  • 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.

  • so so.

  • 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.

  • ppl r juss speaking the truth bud!! theres no need to freak out gosh!! GM sucks... n toyota n honda r kicking its ass! simple as that!!

  • You say that Just Because you drive a 95 Civic with a POS d-16 engine... If you like Jap cars, go to Japan and leave all American cars to us.....

  • 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.

  • ALL a response to MASTERKDRIFTER (its all in his name)

  • video was very shoddily put together. who's your new video editor? please fire him/her!

  • i agree the vid felt choppy

  • This was from GM ..

  • really? wow. they need to get someone new to make their ads.

  • 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.

  • this has 30 mpg non hybrid >.>

  • i no but it could get 35+ if it was a hybrid

  • yeah but 30 mpg is pretty good for a suv. plus you have to understand that we americans like everything bigger ;D

  • Ok GM, this is a good first step-

    what else you got?

    LOL

  • My grandfather has the 2008 Equinox and It is very nice, but this Equinox is even better! Look at body :O : )

  • i love the rims and the grill lol

  • oh man time to upgrade the equinox. :] :]

  • Nice car!!! Great Rims!!!

  • hope it's a good quality piece of garbage otherwise it'll be just a piece of garbage.

  • Looks pretty good. 30 MPG is also a welcome achievment.

  • car looks good

    but video was boringg

    completely quiet for most of it
