"It's a Chevrolet tradition to offer buyers a lot of options, and that's absolutely the case with the Equinox. You can choose from an all-wheel-drive or front-wheel, and between the 1.5-liter, 2.0-liter, or 1.6-liter diesel engines. All engines include turbochargers, and depending on which one you choose, you'll get a 6- or 9-speed automatic transmission.

The Equinox with the 2.0-liter engine will tow up to 3,500 pounds, while the diesel and the 1.5-liter Equinox will tow up to 1,500 pounds. There's a button on the console that puts the Equinox into towing mode, which changes the way the vehicle shifts gears in order to give you a more confident towing experience. A second button on the console allows you to choose whether to engage the AWD system if your Equinox has that option. You can use the button to select AWD when you need it, and you can turn it off all summer long and save fuel."
