2027 Chevrolet Equinox: What's New, Trims, Specs & Features

The 2027 Chevrolet Equinox adds Cabin Glance and Security Interior Recording as new standard technology across the lineup. This feature did not appear on the 2026 model, making 2027 a meaningful step forward in in-cabin security. This page covers every trim, spec, and change, with current Equinox inventory available at Umansky Chevrolet in Glendale, WI.

What's New for 2027


The headline addition for the 2027 Equinox is Cabin Glance and Security Interior Recording. This system uses an interior-facing camera to monitor the cabin and record security events, a capability that was not offered on the prior model year. Beyond that addition, the 2027 Equinox carries forward the 11.3-inch infotainment touchscreen and 11-inch digital driver display that shoppers responded to positively in the previous generation update.

 

The Drive Mode Selector is now standard across all trims, giving every Equinox buyer the ability to tailor throttle and steering response to road conditions. AWD remains an available option on each trim level for buyers in Glendale and the surrounding Wisconsin area who want added confidence on wet or snow-covered roads.

Trim Lineup

 


The 2027 Equinox is offered in three trims: LT, RS, and ACTIV. All three are available in FWD or AWD configurations.

LT is the entry point and arrives with the full standard safety suite, the 11.3-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, remote start, and the new Cabin Glance system. It gives buyers a fully connected, safety-equipped crossover without stepping up in trim.

RS adds a sport-forward exterior treatment and raises the comfort level inside. Wireless phone charging, dual-zone automatic climate control, and rain-sensing wipers are all added at this tier. The RS shares its price point with the ACTIV, so the decision between them comes down to style preference.

ACTIV matches the RS equipment list but trades the sport styling for a more rugged exterior look, reinforcing the Equinox's role as an everyday crossover that can handle varied terrain. Available upgrades across the lineup include a 360-degree camera system, an AutoSense power liftgate, and a panoramic sunroof.

Performance & Powertrain


Every 2027 Equinox is powered by a 1.5L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine producing 175 hp and 184 lb-ft of torque, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is available on every trim.

 

Fuel economy is rated at 25 mpg city and 29 mpg highway, with a 26 mpg combined figure EPA fuel economy ratings. For a Wisconsin buyer covering both city commutes and longer highway stretches, that highway number helps keep fuel costs reasonable. The Equinox is rated to tow up to 1,500 lbs, suitable for light hauling like small utility trailers or watercraft.

Interior, Comfort & Cargo


The 2027 Equinox seats five across two rows. At 183.2 inches in length and 65.6 inches in height, it fits comfortably in most urban parking situations while still delivering a useful interior. Cargo space behind the second row measures 29.8 cubic feet, a competitive figure for the compact crossover class and enough for grocery runs, sports gear, or weekend luggage.

 

The RS and ACTIV trims include dual-zone automatic climate control, letting front passengers set independent temperatures. Rain-sensing wipers are also included at those levels, reducing the need to manually adjust wiper speed in changing Wisconsin weather.

 

Available exterior color choices for 2027 include Black, Artemis Gray, Jet Black, and Autumn Harvest Metallic.

Technology & Infotainment


The Equinox centers its tech around an 11.3-inch diagonal infotainment touchscreen paired with an 11-inch digital driver information center display. Both screens are standard on every trim. Wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto come standard as well, removing the need for cables.

 

Remote start is standard across the lineup, a practical feature for Glendale winters when pre-warming the cabin before a commute matters. Wireless phone charging is included on RS and ACTIV. The Drive Mode Selector is standard on all trims.

 

The new Cabin Glance and Security Interior Recording system is the most notable tech addition for 2027. It uses an interior camera to flag security events, giving owners a record of cabin activity when the vehicle is parked.

Safety & Driver Assistance


The 2027 Equinox comes standard with a thorough driver assistance package on every trim. Standard systems include:

  • Automatic Emergency Braking
  • Forward Collision Warning
  • Front Pedestrian Braking
  • Lane Departure Steering Assistance with Lane Departure Warning
  • Following Distance Indicator
  • Automatic High Beams
  • Driver Airbag

The available 360-degree camera system provides a full overhead view when maneuvering in tight spaces, useful for urban parking or backing into confined areas. These features come standard at no additional trim upgrade, which means the base LT buyer gets the full safety suite from the start.

Who It's For / vs the Prior Year


The 2027 Equinox suits compact crossover buyers who want a connected, safety-focused vehicle with enough cargo room for daily use. The three-trim structure keeps the decision manageable: buyers who prioritize value choose the LT, those who want upgraded comfort features step to the RS or ACTIV, and the choice between those two comes down to exterior style.

 

Compared to the 2026 Equinox, the 2027 model's clearest advantage is the addition of Cabin Glance and Security Interior Recording. If interior security monitoring matters to you, the 2027 is the version to buy. If you are considering a leftover 2026 model, that specific feature will not be present. The rest of the powertrain, dimensions, and safety structure carry over, so buyers who drove a 2026 will feel immediately at home in the 2027 cabin.

 

AWD availability on every trim level makes the 2027 Equinox a flexible choice for Wisconsin buyers who want grip in winter conditions without committing to a larger or more expensive vehicle.
