Chevy just doesn’t miss with their SUV and crossover lineup. They’re a popular choice for many Hudson shoppers and for good reason. The new Chevy Trax and new Chevy Equinox are no different. Both stand out in their respective segments and outperform most of their competitors. But what if you’re deciding between the Trax or Equinox? Today at Sawyer Chevrolet, Inc., we’re going to compare the 2021 Chevy Trax vs. Equinox to help you decide on your next Saugerties daily commuter.

2021 Trax vs. Equinox: Price

Arguably one of the most important criteria when searching for a new family vehicle is pricing. In most cases, you want a vehicle that’s budget-friendly without sacrificing space and features. The starting MSRP of the Chevy SUVs are as follows:

  • 2021 Chevy Trax: Starting at $21,400
  • 2021 Chevy Equinox: Starting at $23,800

It’s clear here in the Chevrolet Trax vs. Equinox price comparison that the Trax is the more inexpensive option. However, one thing to note is that the Trax is a compact SUV and the Equinox is essentially a small SUV. So if you don’t need the larger space and you’re looking to save, we recommend going for the 2021 Chevy Trax. If space is more of a concern and you’re comfortable with spending a little more, the 2021 Chevy Equinox is for you.

2021 Trax vs. Equinox: Dimensions

When you’re deciding between the Chevy Trax vs. Equinox, you should consider what you’ll be using it for in Windham. Both vehicles are spacious in their own SUV class but provide different dimensions to fit certain lifestyles. Let’s take a look at the comparison of the Chevy Trax vs. Equinox dimensions:

Trax

  • Front/Rear headroom (inches): 39.6/38.8
  • Front/Rear legroom (inches): 40.8/35.7
  • Front/Rear shoulder room (inches): 54.1/52.8
  • Max passenger volume (cubic feet): 92.8
  • Cargo volume to 1st/2nd row (cubic feet): 48.4/18.7

Equinox

  • Front/Rear headroom (inches): 40.0/38.5
  • Front/Rear legroom (inches): 40.9/39.9
  • Front/Rear shoulder room (inches): 57.2/55.5
  • Max passenger volume (cubic feet): 103.5
  • Cargo volume to 1st/2nd row (cubic feet): 63.9/29.9

The seating capacity in both vehicles fit up to five passengers, so if you’re solely looking for that, you can go with the Trax or Equinox. Nevertheless, if you plan to regularly carry all five passengers and their belongings, we recommend the 2021 Chevy Equinox over the Trax.

Keep in mind that because the Equinox has larger interior dimensions, it’s also larger on the outside as well. The Trax is ideal if you plan on frequently parking in tight spaces because of its compact size.

2021 Trax vs. Equinox: Features

You’ll be hard-pressed to find any missing features in both the Trax and Equinox. Chevrolet SUVs are typically known for their technology and convenience features, and both the 2021 Chevy Trax and Equinox provide innovations such as:

  • AWD options
  • Remote keyless entry
  • Chevrolet Infotainment System
  • Apple CarPlay®/Android Auto™ connectivity
  • Heated front seats
  • Wi-Fi® hotspot
  • 60/40 split-folding rear seats
