A Chevrolet Equinox car rental that carries more than its size
Drive an Equinox
The Chevrolet Equinox is a five-seat compact SUV with a 1.5L turbocharged engine, built for city errands and road trips alike. A Chevrolet Equinox car rental gives you a compact footprint for tight parking, plus real cargo room and big-screen tech. It's an easy pick among compact SUV rentals on Turo.
On Turo, you book your Equinox from a local vehicle owner, so you choose the exact year and trim you want. You also arrange pickup and drop-off that fit your plans.

Big screens, built-in smarts
The latest Equinox comes standard with an 11.3-inch touchscreen and an 11-inch digital driver display. Google built-in puts Google Maps, Google Play, and Gemini right on the dash. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto also connect your phone with no cable required.
Room for the whole road trip
The Equinox opens up to 63.5 cu ft of max cargo space — think suitcases, a cooler, and a stroller in one load. The 60/40 split-folding rear seat lets you fold one side for long gear and keep the other side free for a passenger.
Some Equinox models add an available hands-free power liftgate, so you can open the back when your arms are full of bags. Check the listing to see whether the Equinox you're eyeing has one. Either way, you'll pack once and spend the rest of the trip enjoying the drive.
Safety tech on every trim
Chevy Safety Assist comes standard, so every Equinox trim gets the same core safety tech. It includes Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian Braking, Forward Collision Alert, and a Following Distance Indicator. You also get Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, plus IntelliBeam auto high beams.
All told, the Equinox comes with over 15 standard safety and driver-assist features. That's welcome backup on an unfamiliar highway, in stop-and-go city traffic, or on a late drive back from the airport. You focus on the trip, and the tech keeps watch.
Stand out with an Equinox
The Equinox shines on trips where a sedan feels tight and a three-row SUV feels like too much. Couples get room to pack freely, small families get five seats plus space for gear, and weekend getaways get easy parking. It's a versatile pick in any Chevrolet car rental search on Turo.
Top Equinox features
Three trims, three personalities
Three standouts define the Equinox: three distinct trims, efficient turbo power, and all-weather confidence with available AWD.
The Equinox comes in three trims — LT, RS, and ACTIV — and each one brings its own look and feel. The LT keeps things cozy with heated front seats and a heated steering wheel as standard, a welcome perk on cold mornings.
The RS leans sporty with black badging, 19-inch wheels (20-inch available), a flat-bottom steering wheel, and an available black roof. The ACTIV sets itself apart with 17-inch machined wheels, Evotex and sueded microfiber seats, and an available two-tone white roof. Pick the personality that matches your trip.
Efficient turbo power
Every Equinox trim runs a 1.5L turbocharged four-cylinder engine that makes 175 hp. Front-wheel-drive (FWD) models pair it with a continuously variable transmission (CVT). All-wheel-drive (AWD) models get an eight-speed automatic instead.
Whichever version you book, you get an EPA-rated 29 mpg on the highway, so long drives won't keep you circling back to the gas station. When properly equipped, the Equinox can also tow up to 1,500 lbs. That's a lot of versatility from a five-seat compact SUV that still sips fuel on the interstate.
All-weather confidence with AWD
AWD versions of the Equinox use the eight-speed automatic and earn EPA ratings of 25 city, 29 highway, and 26 combined mpg. AWD sends power to all four wheels, which adds grip for rainy commutes and snowy highway stretches.
So, AWD vs. FWD? FWD models rate 26 city, 29 highway, and 27 combined mpg, a small edge for sunny-weather trips. Choose AWD for winter weather or wet roads, and use the search filters on Turo to find the drivetrain you want.

Top tips and things to know before renting a Equinox
Get to know your Equinox
A little prep goes a long way: confirm the year and trim, plan how you'll pack, and book early for summer.
Check the listing's year and trim before you book, since features differ between the LT, RS, and ACTIV. The Equinox is the compact choice in Chevy's SUV lineup, with two rows and five seats.
Need more room than a standard SUV? The full-size Chevrolet Tahoe and three-row Chevrolet Suburban step up in size for bigger groups. For the sports car side of the brand, the iconic Chevrolet Corvette trades cargo space for pure thrills.
Equinox driving tips
A few smart habits make any Equinox trip easier:
Pair your phone before you set off, so wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto is ready to go.
Fold one side of the 60/40 rear seat to fit long gear and keep a seat for a passenger.
Plan fuel stops around the EPA-rated 29 mpg highway figure on longer drives.
Book early for summer, since Equinox searches peak June–August.
How much does it cost to rent an Equinox?
The cost of a Chevy Equinox rental on Turo depends on the listing, since each local vehicle owner sets the price. Prices vary by year, trip length, and location, and you'll see all mandatory fees upfront before you book.
Longer trips can unlock trip-length discounts on three-day, weekly, and monthly bookings — a smart move if you need a long-term car rental. You'll also get a 10% discount when you book a non-refundable trip at least four days ahead.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
