About This 2018 Chevrolet Equinox LS

This 2018 Chevrolet Equinox LS Sport Utility is stocked at Turbo Motors in Taylor, MI under Stock #3152TM. With 126,529 miles on the odometer, this Equinox has clearly been a well-used daily driver — and that's not necessarily a bad thing. The second-generation Equinox, redesigned for 2018, shed significant weight over its predecessor and adopted a more modern, car-like platform that tends to age gracefully. At this mileage, buyers should expect a vehicle that's broken in and proven, not worn out. Proper maintenance history is always worth asking about, and Turbo Motors can walk you through what's available on this specific unit.

The AWD configuration makes this particular Equinox especially relevant for Michigan drivers who deal with snow-packed roads and icy conditions from November through March. Whether you're commuting through Taylor, navigating Wayne County surface roads, or heading out on the highway, all-wheel drive provides meaningful peace of mind throughout the winter months.
 

2018 Chevrolet Equinox Performance and Engine

Under the hood, this Equinox LS is powered by Chevrolet's 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine paired with a six-speed automatic transmission with overdrive. This engine produces 170 horsepower and 203 lb-ft of torque — numbers that feel surprisingly responsive in everyday driving thanks to the turbocharger's ability to deliver torque at lower RPMs.

The six-speed automatic is smooth and well-matched to the 1.5T engine, and the overdrive ratio helps keep highway RPMs low, contributing to the Equinox's impressive fuel economy ratings — EPA-estimated around 25 MPG combined for the AWD variant. That's strong for a compact SUV of this size and capability, and it makes a noticeable difference during long Wayne County commutes or weekend trips up to Ann Arbor, Detroit, or beyond.

The AWD system on this Equinox is designed for everyday traction management rather than hardcore off-roading, but it does an excellent job of distributing power to the wheels that need it most — particularly useful on Michigan's unpredictable road surfaces throughout the colder seasons.
 

Chevrolet Equinox LS Features and Interior

The LS is the entry-level trim of the 2018 Equinox lineup, but Chevrolet made sure it wasn't stripped down. Standard equipment on the 2018 Equinox LS includes a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, making smartphone integration seamless whether you're pulling up navigation or streaming music on your commute.

Other standard features include a rearview backup camera, Chevrolet's 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot capability, Bluetooth connectivity, and a six-speaker audio system. The interior layout is one of the Equinox's genuine strengths — the cabin feels airy and well-organized, with logical controls and a comfortable driving position. Rear passengers get a reasonable amount of legroom for a compact crossover, and the cargo area is practical for grocery runs, weekend gear, or the occasional flat-pack furniture haul.

Cloth seating is standard on the LS trim, and while it may not have the premium feel of higher trims, it's durable and comfortable for daily use — exactly what most buyers at this price point are looking for.

Chevrolet Equinox Reliability and Ownership

The 2018 Chevrolet Equinox represents the first year of a significantly improved generation, and the changes paid off in terms of owner satisfaction. The shift to a lighter body and turbocharged engines gave the Equinox more modern credentials, and the 1.5T engine — while not without its early growing pains — has generally proven dependable with routine oil changes and maintenance.

One thing prospective owners should be aware of is that the 1.5-liter turbo engine in early production 2018 models was subject to a GM service bulletin related to oil consumption. It's worth verifying whether any related service was performed on this specific vehicle. Beyond that, the Equinox as a platform is generally regarded as reliable for its class — Consumer Reports and owner forums alike tend to rate the second-gen Equinox positively for long-term dependability when maintained properly.

At 126,000-plus miles, the transmission and AWD components are worth inspecting, as they would be on any high-mileage vehicle. But buyers who do their homework often find that a well-maintained 2018 Equinox AWD has plenty of life left in it, making it a smart value purchase in today's used car market.
