 The
2008 Chevrolet Equinox is the largest ‘compact’
SUV on the market. Earlier Chevrolet made a foray in the SUV
segment with the launch of Chevrolet Tracker. But the endeavor
didn’t meet with adequate success. But, this time the
Ontario-built Equinox can turn the tide in Chevrolet’s
favor. So far Ford Escape is being considered as the bible
of the SUV segment. But the new SUV avatar of the Chevrolet
could usher in a new chapter in the highly competitive SUV
segment thanks to its unmatched style, power and roominess.
The 2008 Chevrolet Equinox is the real challenger of Ford
Escape. Just have a look at the length and width of the 2008
Chevrolet Equinox - it’s 358 mm (14 inches) longer and
51 mm (2 inches) wider than Ford Escape. With greater passenger
carrying capacity, the latest version of Chevrolet will definitely
other SUVs a run for their money.
The
2008 Chevrolet Equinox has been manufactured keeping in mind
the longer and wider version of the Saturn Vue platform. That’s
why you will find a completely independent suspension along
with185 horsepower 3.4-litre V6 engine and 5-speed automatic
engine. Chevrolet has finally been able to come out of the
age of base four cylinder engine and manual transmission.
What’s more, the 2008 Chevrolet Equinox is powered by
both front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive or four-wheel-drive
drivelines. Thanks to the automatic four-wheel-drive system,
you can enjoy smooth, hassle-free and uninterrupted driving.
The
2008 Chevrolet Equinox is available in two trim levels i.e.
LS and LT. Both the trim levels are also available in FWD
and AWD models. And prices are quite affordable. The LS FWD
and the LT FWD are available at just &26,560 and $28,565
respectively whereas the LS AWD and the LT AWD are available
in$29,170 and $31,275 respectively. The 2008 Chevrolet Equinox
