In the market for a reliable new SUV for your Schaumburg drives? You’ve likely come across both the 2019 Chevy Equinox and the 2019 Ford Escape in your research. Both of these popular SUVs have a lot to offer, but which one offers the affordable price, well-appointed interior, and great performance you require? Compare the new Chevy Equinox vs. Ford Escape in-depth with Biggers Chevrolet, below, to find out!
The Equinox and the Escape are both high-quality vehicles with plenty of interior space and tech features for your Streamwood family. With that said, if staying on budget is a top priority for you, the Chevy is the smarter choice. Whether you opt for the entry-level or top-tier trim, the Equinox price point is lower than the Escape:
2019 Chevy Equinox: The base level engine on the Chevy Equinox is an efficient 1.5L Turbo four-cylinder that generates up to 170 hp and 203 lb-ft of torque, paired with a six-speed automatic transmission. This engine includes Continuously Variable Valve Timing, Direct Injection, and Stop/Start technology. Together, these features will help you earn an EPA-estimated 26 mpg city/32 mpg highway.
2019 Ford Escape: The base engine on the Ford Escape falls a bit short compared to the Chevy Equinox, and the Equinox earns better gas mileage. The Escaps has a standard 2.5L iVCT I-4 engine, generating 168 hp and 170 lb-ft of torque. It achieves an EPA-estimated 21 mpg city/29 mpg highway.
Both models deliver desirable interior features, but the Equinox interior offers a few more advanced options. Take a look at the feature highlights for each SUV:
