The New Chevy Equinox Vs the Competition
This trio of crossover SUVs is engaging and built for city commutes in Hawthorne, Little Falls, NJ, and the surrounding areas. While we have our favorite (pretty obvious), we'll give you a quick comparison of our Chevy Equinox and leading competitors, the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4.

Exterior Design
Chevy Equinox
The Chevy Equinox conveys motions, even at a standstill. Defined character lines along the side panels and a dynamic front fascia leave a lasting impression. LED lights decorate the front and rear ends of every model to enhance lighting and visual appeal. The 17-inch all-season Blackwall tires come standard on AWD models and fit this compact SUV nicely.
Available Upgrades
- 20-Inch Machined Face Aluminum Wheels
- Dual-Tone Color Combination
- Dual Pane Power Sunroof
- Fog Lamps
- Midnight Edition (Blacked Out Appearance)
Honda CR-V
The Honda CR-V brings a striking palette of color options to the table. Entry-level models receive 17-inch wheels with full LED headlights; the latter is included in every trim. While not as trendy as the Equinox, it's still quite a looker in the right lights.
Available Upgrades
- 18-inch Alloy Wheels
- Power Tailgate
Toyota RAV4
The Toyota RAV4 shaves off the rugged exterior design of the past and invites a modern, charismatic display for this year's model. LED lighting adorns the front end while the unassuming front fascia blends in with its city surroundings. Aggressive character lines and wheel designs help make this SUV easy on the eyes.
Available Upgrades
- 20-inch Alloy Wheels
- Two-Tone Color Options
- All-Terrain Tires
- Piano Black Accents
- Paint Matching Grill

Fuel Economy and Efficiency
Chevy Equinox
The Equinox finds motivation through its 1.5-liter Turbo 4-cylinder engine with an EPA-estimated 26/28 MPG city/highway. All-wheel drive is available on every trim and gives you more control during the harsh winters in Paramus.
Honda CR-V
The 1.5-liter turbocharged engine is the standard powertrain throughout the trim lineup, with a hybrid powertrain available on select models. You can add all-wheel drive to any trim in the lineup, but Front Wheel Drive achieves an EPA-estimated 28/33 MPG city/highway.
Toyota RAV4
The Toyota RAV4 brings its hybrid-only powertrain to market. The FWD hybrid powertrain unlocks 226 horsepower, while all-wheel drive trims deliver 236 combined horsepower. Multi-terrain modes help traverse gravel, dirt, mud, and other off-road obstacles.
