Chevrolet has announced that the new Ultium powered Equinox EV will debut with “well-contented” front-wheel drive and all-wheel-drive models with cheaper variants on the way in 2024.
Equinox EV – Launching with featured models for MY 2024
The brand announced that Chevrolet dealers will be able to start ordering full-featured front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive Equinox EV models starting the first week of November. Those models will start at $48,995 for the FWD version and $52,395 for the AWD version. Those prices include destination but do not include a federal EV tax credit.

Equinox EV – Sub $30,000 model coming in late 2024
The lower content and more affordable Equinox EV will debut later in 2024 as a potential 2025 model-year vehicle. Chevrolet had previously announced their goals were “around $30k” and “over 250 miles of range.”
Interestingly enough, the brand is delivering on those estimates. Chevrolet announced that the lower-cost Equinox EV would be priced at $34,994 before a $7,500 federal tax credit. That means the high-volume Equinox EV could cost customers as little as $27,494, including delivery.
That model will also overperform GM’s range estimate- traveling nearly 315 miles on a single charge.

Chevrolet also announced that nearly 200,000 people have expressed interest or “raised their hand” for Equinox EV. Stay tuned to GM-Trucks.com for more details and information on the Equinox EV as it gets closer to production in a few months.
