Equinox Still on Top!
The 2010 Equinox from Chevrolet is still quite impressive to consumers. Recent reports indicate that the sales of the Equinox for 2010 have increased by 113% compared to its sales from 2009. It's impressive what a complete redesign can do for popularity. Even people who are in the market for a Ford F-150 might be impressed by the features of the Equinox and change their mind on their next vehicle purchase. Dealerships are having to offer several incentives to compete with Chevy and it seems that there are continually Volkswagen Deals being offered to consumers on their Equinox competition, the VW Tiguan. So what is it exactly that makes this crossover compact SUV so popular?
The Equinox has been on the market since 2006 and you are likely to find a used model from GM Saginaw. This popular vehicle offers drivers the best fuel economy in its class, with 22 mpg in the city and 32 mpg on the highway. That is better gas mileage than popular sedans on the market right now! The demand on this vehicle continues to remain high, and dealerships have a hard time keeping them on the lot for more than a couple days. Plus, people are paying more than the MSRP price, on average according to U.S. News and Rankings.
While the CR-V from Honda and Rav4 from Toyota both also underwent recent redesigns, they have not been able to pass the Equinox in total sales. Consumers so far love its stylish exterior design, roomy and comfortable interior, as well as the fact that the vehicle looks and feels more expensive than it actually is. GM has installed a new state of the art noise canceling system in both the Chevy Equinox and its cousin the GMC Terrain, making for an incredibly quiet ride at an affordable price.
