2010 Chevrolet Equinox Pricing to Start at $23,185

very nice, good work GM

Trying to ignore the fact that this is an American car, and looking at it from a neutral standpoint, I can only say that I don't think this car will in any way help GM's situation. Why doesn't GM make an attempt to come out with something that doesn't look so ugly, moronic and bloated. Are they completely oblivious to the elegant and handsome designs that are coming out of Europe and Japan?

It sounds like a pretty bad decision to replace an Equinox with an even bigger Equinox in these times when everyone is trying to downsize. And not offer a Diesel engine for it. This car is really far of from being a compact SUV. Even the old Equinox is bigger than the Toyota RAV4 for example, and the american RAV4 is longer than the european one. This new Equinox is NOT a compact SUV, and as a consequence, will not be a fuel efficient car.

Please define "crisp lines." What a totally assinine phrase when discussing autos. As for the nationality quality related comments. The latest JD Power poll saw Lexus fall from the top to be supplanted by Buick. As for engineering being dominated by Europe and Japan? Wow, talk about not getting credit for anything. Also, why do people insist on comparing apples to oranges in the car debate?

I would like to add in a bit. In my opinion the new 2010 Equinox is a well made machine, and is priced fairly as well. Also it is ridiculous that you guys would even compare a GLK, simply because Mercedes is known and prized as luxury. Also, the GLK is priced $10,000 more and not to mention the GL is $30,000 more. Do you know that $30,000 can be calculated to about 6 years worth a gas considering that one is using $400 worth of gas per month? And the GLK has almost 10 mile less to the gallon than the Equinox. Sure the New Equinox is bigger, but who decided that everyone wants to downsize. I for one think the crossovers look like a car mixed with a mini-van, they are just flat out ridiculous. There are people who still want the feel of a SUV, but only wish they had better gas mileage. The Equinox is bridging the gap between full-size SUV?s and compact SUV?s with a hint of a crossover look. If you don?t like it then don?t buy it. Even though GM isn?t at the top when it comes to sells, the New Equinox is a job well done. With its bold look and smooth curves; this vehicles may not say luxury, but it does say style. Especially with its defiant grill that stands out far better than the rest, similar to what one would see on a full-size SUV. But it seems it was just kept small enough to be manageable as a compact, and at the same time give you the space needed as a true SUV, and still have the smooth curves to give it a crossover feel. With its chrome trimming on the exterior and well designed dashed board and comfort in the interior, the 2010 Equinox has just created a league of its own.
