2024 Equinox EV: An Affordable, Functional and Stylish EV

2024 Chevrolet Equinox EV 3LT

Enters contested compact SUV segment as the most affordable all-electric entry

After introducing the Chevrolet Silverado EV and Blazer EV this year, Chevrolet’s blitz of electric vehicle rollouts continues with a third introduction: the all-new 2024 Equinox EV — an affordable all-electric SUV tailored to help modern families make a seamless, confident and uncompromising transition to an EV.  

“We are at a turning point where EVs will be the mainstream choice for the next generation of customers and Equinox EV will lead this charge for us,” said Mary Barra, Chair and CEO of General Motors. “With the flexibility of GM’s Ultium Platform, we are bringing to market vehicles at nearly every price point and for every purpose.”

With a starting price of around $30,000 on the 1LT, the Equinox EV plugs Chevrolet into the critical compact SUV segment and is expected to be the most affordable EV in its class. It rounds out an electrified portfolio that covers major segments, including full-size trucks (Silverado EV), midsize SUVs (Blazer EV) and compact SUVs (Bolt EV and Bolt EUV). Plus, it will also be available with up to an available GM-estimated 300 miles of range on a full charge.

“Chevrolet is now positioned to offer a wide array of EVs,” said Scott Bell, vice president of Chevrolet. “We know truck and SUV customers better than anyone and we’ve channeled that insight and experience into our new EVs.”

With the Equinox EV, designers and engineers focused on the style, space, safety and value attributes that made the gas-powered Equinox second to only the Silverado in Chevy sales and elevated them with expressive design, electrifying capability and effortless EV technology.

In addition to the Ultium-based propulsion technologies, features include a large infotainment screen — including an available 17.7-inch-diagonal system — a strong suite of standard and available driver assistance technologies, and available Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance technology for compatible roads, when compared to the current Equinox.

“The Equinox EV is an EV for everyone,” said Bell. “It’s an affordable game-changer, offering an uncompromising experience, with more features, that won’t change your daily routine — except that you will no longer have to stop at the gas station.”

Expressive design
At a glance, the Equinox EV’s expressive design has an athletic, bold and commanding appearance that is instantly recognizable as a Chevy SUV. Two distinctive personalities — LT and RS — are offered in several trims, drive configurations and range options.

Highlights include:

  • Sleek lines and sporty proportions enabled by the Ultium Platform
  • Innovative walk-up lighting, with front and rear lighting animation standard and an available unique light bar on mid- and up-level LT and RS trims
  • Standard 19-inch wheels, with available 20- and 21-inch wheels depending on the trim
  • Available presence-based liftgate that can open hands-free when sensing the key fob is near the back of the vehicle
  • Available two-tone white roof on LT and available black roof on RS

Inside, a streamlined and modern interior offers room for five, available personalized ambient lighting and a smart infotainment system. It also has a spacious cabin, with numerous storage solutions from front to rear, as well as up to 57 cubic feet (1,614 liters) of max cargo room, with the rear seat folded.

When it comes to comfort and convenience, heated front and rear outboard seats, a heated steering wheel and even a heated windshield wiper park feature, which helps keep the area around the wipers clear of ice buildup, are available.

Effortless EV tech and more
Chevrolet is committed to making the EV transition seamless, with support such as available navigation and route planning through the MyChevy app, which helps locate and plot routes to charging stations.

Customers also have access to Ultium Charge 360, GM’s holistic approach to EV charging, which is designed to simplify the overall charging experience, with information and access to more than 110,000 publicly available charging points in the U.S. and Canada.

“Chevrolet has your back with every aspect of the EV experience,” said Bell. “The Equinox EV has the range to take you where you want to go, the spaciousness for your passengers and gear, and technology to do it all comfortably and confidently.”

Chevrolet also knows safety is top priority for families and the Equinox EV delivers with a strong list of standard features:

  • Chevy Safety Assist, which includes Automatic Emergency Braking, Following Distance Indicator, Forward Collision Alert, Front Pedestrian Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning and IntelliBeam automatic high beams
  • Rear Park Assist
  • Reverse Automatic Braking
  • Safety Alert Seat
  • Rear Cross Traffic Braking
  • Blind Zone Steering Assist

Available driver assistance technologies include Adaptive Cruise Control and HD Surround Vision, with a Head-Up Display and Rear Camera Mirror also available.

Additionally, Super Cruise, the industry’s first true hands-free driver-assistance technology is also available. It allows drivers to travel hands-free on more than 400,000 miles of compatible roads across the U.S. and Canada.

Electrifying capability
A standard front-wheel-drive system with GM estimated 210 horsepower and 242 lb-ft of torque offers quick acceleration and a fun driving experience for everyday tasks, with a 290-horsepower and 346 lb-ft torque eAWD system available.

One-Pedal Driving is standard and allows the Equinox EV to accelerate and slow to a full stop, using only the accelerator. It’s paired with regenerative braking, which can convert the kinetic energy of the vehicle’s forward momentum into electricity that’s stored in the battery pack to maximize the driving range.

The Equinox EV also packs the latest in charging technology:

  • Standard 11.5 kW Level 2 (AC) charging, which can add up to 34 miles of range per hour of charging, per GM estimates
  • 19.2 kW Level 2 (AC) charging is available on 3RS eAWD, which can add up to 51 miles of range per hour of charging, per GM estimates
  • Standard DC fast-charging capability of up to 150 kW, which enables approximately 70 miles of range to be added in 10 minutes, per GM estimates

GM covers the Equinox EV’s battery with an 8-year/100,000-mile limited warranty, in addition to the vehicle’s standard bumper-to-bumper coverage for added peace of mind.

As with the new Blazer EV and Silverado EV, the Equinox EV also offers fleet customers the benefits of zero-emissions driving, zero gas stops and the opportunity for reduced maintenance.

“Chevy’s fleet customers have EV goals and the all-new Equinox EV helps achieve them,” said Bell. “With some putting more than 20,000 miles a year on their vehicles, it can help them save time at the pump and gas money.”

The 2024 Chevrolet Equinox EV will be available in fall 2023, starting with a limited edition 2RS. Additional details and ordering information will be available closer to the start of production. The Equinox EV will be produced at GM’s Ramos Arizpe, Mexico, production facility.

Chevrolet Impala

Chevrolet, Nike and Devin Booker Celebrate Classic Chevy Culture With New Impala-Inspired Book 2 Sneakers

TL;DR Chevrolet, Nike and NBA All-Star Devin Booker have teamed up for the new Nike Book 2 sneaker collection, inspired by Booker's personal collection of classic Chevrolet Impalas. The first sneaker, “ Pretty Penny,” pays tribute to Booker's 1959 Chevrolet Impala convertible, the vehicle that sparked his passion for vintage cars. The four-sneaker collection combines classic Chevrolet design, automotive history, basketball culture and sneaker culture. Each sneaker is inspired by a different Impala from Booker's collection, including model years 1958, 1959, 1962 and 1963. The collection also features a “Heartbeat of America” T-shirt and custom packaging inspired by vintage Chevrolet Accessories packaging. “Pretty Penny” had an early Detroit release during the 2026 Woodward Dream Cruise and launched globally on August 26, 2026. The remaining three Book 2 sneakers are scheduled to arrive in December 2026. A Classic Chevrolet Impala Inspires Devin Booker's New Nike Sneakers Classic Chevrolet vehicles have long been part of American automotive culture, and now one of Chevy's most recognizable nameplates is inspiring a new generation of enthusiasts. Chevrolet, Nike and NBA star Devin Booker have partnered on the Nike Book 2 collection, a series of four sneakers inspired by Booker's personal collection of vintage Chevrolet Impalas. The collaboration brings together three distinct worlds— Chevrolet's classic-car heritage, Nike basketball footwear and Devin Booker's passion for vintage automobiles. For Booker, the connection is personal. His collection of classic Chevrolets, known as “The Library,” includes several vintage Impalas that have become an important part of his identity outside of basketball. “I’ve been a lifelong Chevy fan and I truly love adding classic cars to my garage, The Library,” Booker said. The 1959 Chevrolet Impala Behind “Pretty Penny” The first sneaker in the Book 2 collection is called “ Pretty Penny,” taking its inspiration from Booker's 1959 Chevrolet Impala convertible. The car is particularly meaningful because it helped ignite Booker's interest in classic automobiles. Its distinctive vintage styling and color combination served as the foundation for the first Book 2 design. The sneaker incorporates visual cues from the Impala rather than simply placing a Chevrolet logo on a basketball shoe. Details include a color palette inspired by the vehicle and a tongue-top design that echoes the car's hood ornament. The approach continues throughout the Book 2 collection, with each sneaker drawing inspiration from a specific Impala in Booker's collection. Four Sneakers Inspired by Four Classic Impalas The complete Book 2 collection celebrates four different Chevrolet Impalas, with designs connected to the vehicles' respective model years: 1958 Chevrolet Impala 1959 Chevrolet Impala 1962 Chevrolet Impala 1963 Chevrolet Impala The result is a collection that treats the cars as more than inspiration for colors. Their individual characteristics are translated into details throughout the sneakers, creating a connection between classic-car design and modern sneaker culture. For Chevrolet enthusiasts, the collection offers a different way to appreciate the styling and personality of some of the brand's most memorable classic vehicles. From Chevy Blazers to Chevy Impalas The Book 2 collaboration builds on a partnership that began with the Nike Book 1 collection. Released in 2025, the Book 1 collection was inspired by Booker's collection of classic Chevrolet Blazers and sold out. The move from Blazers to Impalas reflects the breadth of Booker's Chevrolet collection while continuing a theme that connects his personal automotive interests with his career as a professional basketball player. It also demonstrates how classic Chevrolet vehicles can influence modern design well beyond the automotive world. A “Heartbeat of America” Tribute The Book 2 collection extends beyond the sneakers themselves. Fans can also find a “Heartbeat of America” T-shirt, drawing inspiration from Chevrolet's iconic advertising campaign and anthem from the 1980s and 1990s. The collection's packaging is similarly rooted in Chevrolet history. The custom shoe box takes inspiration from mid-century Chevrolet Accessories packaging, reimagining its kraft-paper construction, bold graphics and oversized lettering for a modern sneaker release. Together, these elements create a collection designed to feel like a celebration of Chevrolet historyt. “Pretty Penny” Arrives During the Woodward Dream Cruise The first Book 2 sneaker made its early debut in Detroit on August 15, 2026, during the Woodward Dream Cruise. The event is one of the world's best-known celebrations of classic-car culture, bringing thousands of vintage vehicles and automotive enthusiasts to Metro Detroit. Booker's “Pretty Penny” was among approximately 40,000 vintage cars participating in the event along the historic 16-mile stretch of Woodward Avenue. The Detroit release was particularly fitting given Booker's Michigan roots and the deep connection between the region and American automotive history. The “Pretty Penny” sneaker then received its global release on August 26, 2026. The remaining three Book 2 designs are scheduled to become available in December 2026. A Collaboration Connecting Cars, Basketball and Culture The Chevrolet and Nike collaboration illustrates how automotive heritage continues to influence popular culture. Classic cars have traditionally inspired everything from clothing and artwork to music and film. The Book 2 collection takes that relationship into the world of modern basketball footwear, using Devin Booker's own vehicles as the creative bridge. For Chevrolet, the partnership also reinforces the emotional side of the brand. Millions of drivers recognize classic Chevy vehicles not only for their mechanical heritage but also for their distinctive designs and the memories associated with them. Having a high-profile athlete like Booker incorporate those vehicles into his personal collection—and then into a modern sneaker collection—introduces that heritage to an entirely new audience. As Chevrolet Global Vice President Scott Bell noted, Booker's genuine enthusiasm for the brand demonstrates how strongly classic Chevrolet vehicles continue to resonate with enthusiasts. What the Book 2 Collection Means for Chevrolet Fans The Nike Book 2 collection is ultimately about more than sneakers. It showcases how Chevrolet Impala history can influence contemporary design, while giving fans another way to connect with the vehicles that helped establish Chevy as an iconic American automotive brand. For longtime Chevrolet enthusiasts, the collection offers a modern interpretation of classic Impala styling. For basketball and sneaker fans, it provides a glimpse into Booker's passion for classic cars. And for younger automotive enthusiasts discovering the Impala for the first time, the collaboration offers an unexpected introduction to Chevrolet's rich history. Frequently Asked Questions What is the Nike Book 2 collection? The Nike Book 2 collection is a four-sneaker collaboration between Nike, Chevrolet and Devin Booker. Each sneaker is inspired by a vintage Chevrolet Impala from Booker's personal collection. Which Chevrolet inspired the “Pretty Penny” Nike Book 2 sneaker? “Pretty Penny” is inspired by Devin Booker's 1959 Chevrolet Impala convertible, the classic car that helped spark his passion for vintage Chevrolets.

When will the other Nike Book 2 sneakers be released? The remaining three sneakers in the Book 2 collection are scheduled to become available in December 2026. What else is included in the Devin Booker and Chevrolet collection? In addition to the sneakers, the collection includes a “Heartbeat of America” T-shirt inspired by Chevrolet's iconic 1980s and 1990s campaign, along with custom packaging inspired by vintage Chevrolet Accessories designs. Was there a Nike Devin Booker Chevy collaboration before Book 2? Yes. The Book 1 collection, released in 2025, was inspired by Devin Booker's collection of classic Chevrolet Blazers. The collection sold out. Why did Chevrolet partner with Devin Booker? Booker is a longtime Chevrolet enthusiast and collector of classic vehicles. The partnership allows Chevrolet to connect its classic-car heritage with basketball, fashion, sneaker culture and a new generation of automotive enthusiasts. What is the Woodward Dream Cruise?

Chevrolet Stars & Steel collection: Meet the designer behind the special-edition vehicles celebrating America's 250th anniversary

For the 2026 model year, Chevrolet is offering the Stars & Steel Collection, a curated lineup of vehicles that celebrates American craftsmanship. The collection spans the Corvette, Colorado, Silverado 1500, Silverado HD, and Silverado EV — all of which are proudly assembled in the United States 2 — with unique design elements and select exclusive upgrades. Adam Barry, senior creative exterior designer for the General Motors Performance Studio, is the designer behind the collection. He sat down with GM News to explain the thoughts behind the design process and highlight the unique features these special editions include. What makes the Stars & Steel editions different? Chevrolet Colorado Stars & Steel Edition Each Stars & Steel model features curated exterior and interior color combinations and graphics inspired by the American flag. The challenge, Barry said, was finding the perfect balance, conveying American craftsmanship and performance without going overboard. "To visually communicate American technology, horsepower, and restraint, while not slathering on too much red, white, and blue,” is how Barry described his goal. Making this work across five very different vehicles was no small task. “This motif had to work on so many vehicles and so many different body panels,” he said. For example, the Silverado HD’s hood is wildly different from the Corvette’s; the Colorado's front fenders would never fit a Silverado EV. “That was a challenge,” Barry added. “It took a lot of time to find the balance, to figure out how to make them all fit together … and it took a design that was very bold and very simple to carry through all that.” The flag-inspired stripes and the 250th logo appear across the entire Stars & Steel model lineup. The stripes have a tone-on-tone look: on a black vehicle, the stripes are dark gray; on a white vehicle, a slightly darker hue is used. The colors, as Barry put it, "are just different values of each other." In addition to flag-themed graphics, Stars & Steel Chevrolets feature standard black wheels. The Corvette, Silverado EV, and Silverado 1500 get red brake calipers, the Colorado gets red tow hooks, and the Silverado HD boasts upgraded towing capability. Can you find the Easter eggs? 2026 Corvette Z06 Stars & Steel Special Edition in Arctic White. The GM design team hid a few surprises in the Stars & Steel design theme. Barry’s favorite is featured on the Corvette. A stylized American flag incorporates the phrase "1776 to 2026" in the bottom line, an element Barry described as "complicated to execute, but something that I knew was possible." He designed it to be somewhat hidden. Most owners might not spot it until they’re up close washing their car. The right designer for the job Barry may have been the perfect designer for the Stars & Steel project. He was born in Cherry Hill and raised in Marlton, New Jersey, both suburbs within a 13-mile radius of Philadelphia, where the Declaration of Independence was signed on July 4 th, 1776, the official founding of the United States of America. Thirteen miles, just like the original 13 colonies. That’s not the only coincidence. “As a kid, my school would take field trips to this historic section of Philly to see the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall and walk the cobblestone streets,” Barry said. Right outside Independence Hall is a statue of Commodore Barry, an American naval officer during the Revolutionary War, widely considered the father of the American Navy. Naturally, Adam Barry’s classmates couldn’t resist calling him “Commodore” after seeing the statue. Among the GM Design team, Barry played a strong role in the Stars & Steel special editions, though he's reluctant to take too much credit. He was quick to acknowledge the teamwork among designers, engineers, and marketing colleagues within GM. "It turned out to be a great opportunity that really affected the entire plan for Chevrolet for the year,” he added. Bold looks, plenty of options: Chevrolet Corvette 2026 Corvette ZR1X Stars & Steel Special Edition in Black The Stars & Steel Limited Edition is available on all Corvette models, from the entry-level Stingray to the ZR1X. Buyers can choose between Arctic White paint with Satin Silver stripes and a Santorini Blue interior, or a black exterior with Satin Black stripes and Adrenaline Red interior. Other Stars & Steel Corvette enhancements include special sill plates, an interior plaque showing the build sequence number, and available red accents on the brake calipers, seatbelts, and floor mats. Wheel options include Black Gloss, Carbon-Flash, or weight-saving Carbon Fiber. Black exhaust tips are included, too. Production of the Stars & Steel Edition Corvette is limited to 250 units. When asked if the Corvette is his favorite Stars & Steel model, Barry said, “yeah, of course,” without hesitation. It's the car that inspired the GM Design team to expand the Stars & Steel project across multiple Chevrolet models, and the one he worked on every day in the Corvette studio. Stars & Steel Corvettes include: Arctic White with a Santorini Blue interior or Black with an Adrenaline Red interior American Flag inspired full-length stripes in Satin Silver or Satin Black and “250” flag graphics on doors and spoiler ends (when properly equipped) Unique sill plates and interior plaque featuring build sequence number Black Gloss, Carbon-Flash, or available Carbon Fiber Wheels (depending on model) Red accents: Edge Red Calipers, Red Seat belts, Floor Mats with Red Stitching and Edge Red Engine Cover on select models Black exhaust tips & select accessories by model Huge capability with high style: Silverado EV 2026 Silverado EV Stars & Steel Special Edition in Black The Silverado EV Stars & Steel Special Edition is based on the Silverado EV RST, and is available in Summit White with Satin Silver graphics, or in Black with Satin Black graphics, and a Black / Sky Cool Gray interior. Blacked-out 24-inch wheels, black nameplates, and an upgraded brake system further differentiate this truck. The braking upgrade includes red six-piston Brembo front calipers paired with 15.7-inch rotors. The Stars & Steel Silverado EV includes: American Flag inspired stripes in Satin Silver or Satin Black and “250” flag graphics 24" High-Gloss Black wheels All-new Brembo heavy duty brake system with red six-piston front calipers and larger 15.7-inch brake disc for improved pedal feel, fade resistance and stopping power in all conditions Black Nameplates The bestseller gets even better: Silverado 1500 2026 Silverado 1500 Stars & Steel Special Edition in Summit White The Silverado 1500 is Chevrolet’s best-selling nameplate. Nearly 363,000 were sold in 2025, and the Stars & Steel Special Edition gives buyers a new option to choose from. Based on the RST Crew Cab, short box, four-wheel-drive model, it’s available in Black with Satin Black graphics or Summit White with Satin Silver graphics, and a Jet Black interior. The truck rolls on 22-inch gloss-black wheels, with assist steps for easy entry and blacked-out exterior badging. A spray-in bedliner protects the cargo box, while a roll-top bed cover adds functionality. 2026 Silverado 1500 Stars & Steel Special Edition in Summit White The Stars & Steel Silverado 1500 is powered by the 6.2L V8, augmented with a performance air intake. An upgraded Brembo braking system with red six-piston front calipers is also included. The standard Convenience Package II adds a seven-speaker Bose sound system, a sliding back window, a trailer brake controller, a universal home remote, and more. A sunroof is included as well. The Stars & Steel Silverado 1500 includes: American Flag inspired stripes in Satin Silver or Satin Black and “250” flag graphics 22" High-Gloss Black wheels Brembo performance brake system with red six-piston front calipers for ultimate braking confidence in towing and daily driving Black exhaust tips Performance air intake 6" Black rectangular assist steps Protection Package including Spray-on bedliner and wheelhouse liners Dark Essentials blacked-out badging Soft roll Bed Cover with logo Convenience Package II and sunroof Immense capability: Silverado HD 2026 Silverado HD Stars & Steel Special Edition The Silverado HD Stars & Steel Special Edition model comes standard with the 6.6L Duramax Diesel engine that delivers 470 horsepower and 975 pound-feet of torque. Based on the LTZ Crew Cab Trail Boss with four-wheel drive, the Stars & Steel edition offers the above-mentioned Summit White or black exterior color scheme over a black interior. It comes with a spray-in bed liner, high-clearance assist steps, a power sunroof, and 20-inch High Gloss Black wheels. The Z71 off-road package comes standard as well, which provides off-road suspension, hill-descent control, and skid plates. Customers also get the LTZ Convenience Package II and the LTZ Plus Package.

From the Corvette to the Silverado HD, the Stars & Steel Collection celebrates America’s 250 th birthday. Far bigger than the vehicles themselves, though, is the mission behind this special edition. With every Stars & Steel vehicle sold, Chevrolet will donate $250 to nonprofits that support America’s veterans. The initiative launched in January 2026 at the Barrett-Jackson Auction in Scottsdale, Arizona, where a Stars & Steel-inspired 2026 Corvette ZR1X — a one-of-one car — sold for $2.6 million. Every dollar went to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, a nonprofit that provides mortgage-free homes to families of fallen first responders and military service members, and builds smart homes for injured veterans and first responders.
