Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Chevrolet Equinox than in the Chevrolet Trax. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the Chevrolet Equinox and the Chevrolet Trax.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Chevrolet Equinox will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Chevrolet Trax, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Chevrolet Equinox is much wider than the Chevrolet Trax, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Chevrolet Equinox, which is slightly longer than the Chevrolet Trax.

Performance
The Chevrolet Equinox has a little more horsepower than the Chevrolet Trax.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Chevrolet Equinox does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Chevrolet Trax.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Chevrolet Equinox and the Chevrolet Trax. The Chevrolet Equinox has a roomier cargo area for putting your bags or other items than the Chevrolet Trax.
