The 2026 Chevrolet Equinox arrives with a sense of quiet assurance — the kind of confidence found in a vehicle that understands exactly what today’s drivers expect. It blends sophistication, comfort, and genuine usability into a form that feels equally suited to the winding streets of Seaside, CA or long stretches of coastal highway. At Seaside Chevrolet, the Equinox stands as a reminder that a compact SUV can do far more than simply meet expectations. It can shape the experience around you.
A Stylish and Functional Design
The Equinox carries a design that feels both familiar and strikingly fresh. Its sculpted lines catch the light along the coastline, while the sleek taillamps pull the rear profile into a cohesive, modern silhouette. Available two-tone roof treatments add visual depth, and trims like RS and ACTIV bring their own distinct character — sport-focused details, black roof rails, or all-terrain tires that hint at capability beyond the pavement.
Inside, craftsmanship takes center stage. Evotex and sueded microfiber seating surfaces deliver a sense of refinement without feeling delicate, and the stitching feels carefully considered rather than ornamental. The cabin flows tidily around the 11.3-inch diagonal infotainment touchscreen and the 11-inch Driver Information Center, both positioned to make information accessible without intruding on the calm of the interior.
Advanced Technology for Daily Convenience
The 2026 Equinox embraces technology in ways that feel purposeful rather than overwhelming. Adaptive Cruise Control smooths out highway miles, while wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ remove the clutter of cables yet keep essential tools within reach.
Google built-in functionality adds another layer of ease, responding naturally to voice prompts for navigation, entertainment, or quick stops along the Monterey coastline. Features like the available wireless charger and AutoSense Power Liftgate enhance daily usability — small conveniences that collectively reshape the rhythm of day-to-day driving in Seaside.
Performance That Excels in Every Situation
Beneath its polished exterior lies a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, delivering 175 horsepower with a balance of energy and restraint. It feels eager when asked, yet composed as it settles into steady cruising. Pair this with the available all-wheel-drive system, and the Equinox handles shifting coastal weather and changing terrain with quiet competence.
With a towing capacity of up to 1,500 pounds, the Equinox extends its usefulness beyond daily travel. Kayaks, lightweight trailers, weekend gear — each becomes part of the Equinox’s capability. And the Drive Mode Selector allows the vehicle’s personality to adapt subtly to the demands of the moment, whether it’s sand-lined roads or winding forest routes.
Uncompromised Safety Features
Safety remains an integral part of the Equinox’s identity. More than 15 standard advanced safety features form the core of the Chevy Safety Assist suite, including Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Keep Assist, and Forward Collision Alert. These technologies work discreetly in the background, stepping forward only when needed.
Additional features like HD Surround Vision, Rear Cross Traffic Braking, and Side Bicyclist Alert broaden the Equinox’s protective reach. Together, they create a vehicle that not only moves confidently but also instills confidence in those who drive it.
