If you don't believe in second chances, take a look at the new Chevrolet Equinox. While the first one was fine, this latest version is much more so. It's also much more challenging to the rest of the very competitive compact crossover class, including Toyota's RAV4 and Honda's CR-V.
To begin with, it offers a choice of two new direct-injected, variable-valve-timing engines, a standard 2.4-liter four and an optional 3.0-liter V-6, both happily married to six-speed automatic transmissions. The latter offers 264 horses and 18 mpg city and 25 highway EPA economy. The former pumps out 182 ponies and trumps the class at 22 mpg city, 32 highway. According to Chevy, that translates to a potential highway driving range of as much as 600 miles with the four and more than 500 with the six. Four-cylinder models with available all-wheel drive are rated somewhat lower at 20 mpg city, 29 highway, but there's a selectable "Eco" mode that adjusts the transmission's shift points to optimize economy.
The new Equinox heads the way with Chevy's signature global face: a two-tier grille with a visible gold bowtie badge. Muscular fender shapes, wraparound headlamps and dual round tail lamps are additional design-defining elements. Wraparound rear glass and an aggressive wheels-at-the-corners stance complete the look, while efficiency enhancing aerodynamics are achieved through wind-tunnel-tested measures that include moving the base of the windshield forward approximately three inches (vs. the 2009) for a sleeker profile.
It rides on the same 112.5-inch wheelbase as its predecessor but sits about an inch shorter and an inch wider with a wider front track to improve stability and handling. The rocker panels are integrated into the doors to narrow the step-over area, reducing the chances of brushing pant legs against dirty rockers getting in and out, and the flush-fitting exposed-edge windshield and rear glass reduce wind noise and compliment the tight-fitting quality look.
Inside, the Equinox offers more than ample storage, including an over sized glove box, a closed bin above the center stack and closed storage under the center armrest roomy enough for a laptop computer. We found both front and rear seats—offered in standard cloth or premium perforated leather—as good as any in the class. One especially nice contemporary touch is ice-blue ambient lighting inside and around the "floating" center stack and around the console cup holders.
Another is the 60/40-split-back "MultiFlex" rear seat, which adjusts fore and aft nearly eight inches. Full forward, it opens a spacious 31.4 cu. ft. of storage behind it; full rearward, it provides best-in-class rear legroom. Somewhere in between lies the best balance of both for a given trip. Up front, the driver is well accommodated thanks to 10 inches of fore-aft seat travel, standard power-adjustable seat height and a standard tilt/telescoping steering wheel.
Still another great feature is the cabin quietness. It's exceptional for any utility vehicle, let alone a popular-priced compact CUV. Noise-blocking and -absorbing elements are built into the chassis, engine compartment and interior, and four-cylinder models feature GM's first production use of Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) technology. ANC uses microphones to detect booming sounds inside the vehicle and sends counteracting sound waves through the audio speakers.
One other area where this new Equinox trumps the old one, and most volume-priced competitors, is its impressive array of standard and available technologies. Among them are USB audio connectivity, Bluetooth hands-free phone connectivity, a range of premium audio systems (most with internal memory/hard drive for music storage), available seven-inch touch-screen navigation, a rear camera system that displays in the rearview mirror if the car doesn't have navigation, a rear-seat entertainment system with two independent screens (kids can watch a DVD on one and play games on the other) and a programmable power lift gate.
But the proof, as always, is in the driving. We've driven them all in this segment, and most these days are pretty good. But this one at this time may well be the best. The fuel-thrifty four is peppy enough for all but heavy loads, and the V-6 is downright powerful with reasonable economy. The cabin is relaxed, commodious and quietest in class. The steering is better than typical electric-boosted systems, the brakes are sure, strong and fade free, and the handling is surprisingly agile—more tall sedan than cargo-capable utility.

Gm, Ford, Honda, Dcx Win Top Awards in Ward's
General Motors – maker of quality GMC hitch, Ford, Honda and DaimlerChrysler were the proclaimed big winners at the 2007 Ward's "Interior of the Year" awards during the Ward’s Auto Interiors Show that is being held this week at the Cobo Center in Detroit. From 11 manufacturers, 334 vehicles contended for an "Interior of the Year" award in the yearly competition sponsored by Ward's AutoWorld magazine.
The winners were determined in two ways. The first one is through the two-month review and analysis conducted on the 34 nominated vehicles by Ward’s editorial staff. They selected the winners based on eight evaluation categories that include comfort, safety and design harmony. The other way was through online voting which encourage the auto industry at large to join and vote on the automakers that they want to win the 2007 Ward’s “Interior of the Year” awards. Those who are interested to vote may log on to www.autiointeriors.com over 1,400 popular votes were cast.
Ward’s editors chose the Honda Fit as the car with the best interior for the economy-priced car category; the Saturn Acura was chosen in the popular-priced car; while the Volvo S80 is the best in the premium-priced car category. The Honda CRV topped the editors’ choices in the popular-priced CUV while the Cadillac SRX was chosen for the premium-priced CUV. The editors chose the Chevy Silverado for the popular-priced truck category; Lincoln Navigator got the “interior of the year” honors for the premium-priced truck category.
The industry at-large winners for the economy-priced car went to the Dodge Caliber, the Saturn Aura for the popular-priced car and the Lincoln MKZ for the premium-priced car category. The Saturn Outlook and the Cadillac SRX won the heart of the industry at-large and bested as the popular-priced CUV category and in the premium-priced CUV, respectively. As to the popular-priced truck, Chevy Silverado got the “interior of the year” award while the Cadillac Escalade got the award for the premium-priced truck category.
Aside from recognizing the overall interiors of the cars, the magazine also gave four special achievement awards in four categories: Best Brand Expression, Best Interior Trim, Best Overall Comfort and, the very minor yet uplifting award, Best Cup Holder.
The Jeep Wrangler got the Best Brand Expression award. The Infiniti G35 was named vehicle with Best Interior Trim. And according to the editors, the Chrysler Sebring has the best cup holder and the Lexus LS 460L gives the best overall comfort.
Car makers nowadays take on center stage the importance of interiors to vehicle sales. As a matter of fact, OEM spending on interior materials alone, according to CSM Worldwide, is estimated to reach $10 billion by 2009. Most modern consumers prefer those cars with great interiors because at a glance, those would give a hint on the comfort that the cars could give.
A J.D. Power study revealed that in choosing a vehicle, interior comfort is the next most important factor after reliability and durability; exterior styling comes next after interior comfort. This is the reason for car makers’ eagerness to participate in and win a Ward's Interior of the Year award. In the previous year, many of the winning manufacturers exhibited their awards in new vehicle brochures and in national advertising. They believed that such strategy would help attract consumers to buy the cars.
For this year’s awards, Ward’s incorporated three basic changes. One is the development of a quantitative selection process. To assure that the integrity, transparency and impartiality of the competition is maintained; this process evaluated the interiors of the vehicles based on eight criteria that included material selection; ergonomics; driver information; safety; overall value; comfort; fit and finish; and aesthetics and design harmony.
The second fundamental change is the existence of a new category, the Economy-Priced Cars wherein vehicles under $17,000 could qualify. Ward’s editors decided to add this new category to give importance to those cars which are severely needed due to the present day’s infinite rise of fuel prices.
And the third is the institution of a process that would duly recognize outstanding features and detail choices incorporated in new vehicles or vehicle interiors. These fall under “special achievement” awards that highlight interior areas that are viewed by a consensus of the Ward's judges as worthy of honor.
