Lately, crossovers have been very popular among drivers of all types. Many consider the Chevrolet Equinox the epitome of what the crossover category has to offer to drivers. As a result, this vehicle has experienced great success in the market so far. If you’re interested in driving a crossover vehicle for the next decade or so, here are a few reasons you should consider the Chevrolet Equinox Baltimore, which has been redesigned for 2018.
Diesel Engine
Environmentally conscious drivers definitely don’t talk about diesel engines as much as they talk about hybrids. However, diesels definitely have a lot to offer. Diesel engines offer great fuel economy and tend to be very rich in torque. This enables diesel engines to tow heavy loads and accelerate quickly. The 2018 Chevrolet Equinox features a diesel engine. The engine is a turbocharged 1.6-liter and it provides 137 horsepower and 240 lb-ft of torque. The fuel economy of the vehicle is 28 miles per gallon in the city and 39 miles per gallon in the highway. Of this vehicle’s engine lineup, the diesel engine is the most fuel-efficient.
Teen Driver Feature

Every time your teen gets in the car to drive on their own, chances are you feel anxiety. Fortunately, you don’t have to feel as much anxiety if you take advantage of this teen driver feature. This feature allows you to set parameters for your teen’s driving. For example, you can have the vehicle issue warnings at certain speeds.
Driver-Assistive Technology
The Chevrolet Equinox features plenty of driver-assistive technology. As you may know from experience, it can be very dangerous to drive on today’s roads. Therefore, all of us could benefit from the help and support of driver-assistive technology. In difficult driving situations, driver-assistive technology will offer you guidance.
Some of the driver-assistive features that this vehicle possesses include low-speed forward automatic braking, blind-spot warning, rear cross-traffic alert, lane departure warning, and forward collision alert.
