Also, the 2017 Chevrolet Equinox doesn’t have an emergency braking system which is disappointing. Although it is slightly larger than its rivalry, the total cargo space is smaller. The interior elegance could use an upgrade, and additional air vents are needed to heat and cool passengers in the second
