The latest buzz all around is about the 30 mpg suv. This car is to be totally fuel efficient. The starting price of this when you drive it off the lot is close to twenty five thousand dollars. Some are as high up there as thirty five thousand dollars. The one we have been looking at in particular is the new Chevrolet Equinox.

 

This has four doors and five seats to fit passengers. This comes in eight different models which range from the LS 2WD all the way to the LTZ AWD. This has a 2.4 liter engine. It also has a six speed automatic transmission.

 

Some of the features it comes with are new and up to date. Some of them have been around for quite a while. Some of these features include: full power accessories, an Mp3 player, CD player, On Star hands free telephone, temperature gauge, rear electronic parking aid with camera, trip computer with fuel consumption to name a few of the many that this comes with.

There are a few different warranties that come with this. The basic is three years or thirty six thousand miles. There is the drive train which is five years or one hundred thousand miles. There is corrosion which has a 3 year warranty or the warranty ends at thirty six thousand miles. Last, there is roadside assistance which has a five year warranty or ends when you have reached one hundred thousand miles.

 

This comes in all sorts of colors both with the exterior and the interior. Something you will be happy to note is that this has passed all safety inspections. With the 30 mpg suv, this has been rated five stars when it comes to the safety of passengers. You get over thirty miles per gallon when you drive this SUV.

 

People have said that this drives well. You can fit five people in there. While some SUV’s say you can fit this many or that many, it might be less because people might be cramped. This is not the case with this SUV. It fits how many it says it will fit. Those who love to drive smaller SUV’s will love this one as this is what it is it isn’t as big and bulky as others that some of you might have driven. All the while you get to save a bit on gas.

This has won many awards so far which tells a person that they are doing something right. When you have awards being awarded it means that they are taking the time to ensure not only your safety, but your satisfaction too. People were a bit skeptical about the Chevrolet Equinox due to the fact that last year there was a recall, however, this doesn’t seem to be the case with this year’s model. They seemed to have fixed the problem.

 

With the rise of gas prices, it is estimated that more people will be driving these. Many dealers have said that people are test driving them and liking the specs which we have mentioned about above. They are not gas guzzlers but gas sippers which mean you can go further without spending so much money. This is what many people need in this economy and this functions quite well as a family on the go sort of SUV. One can test drive one today as many people are suggesting others to do.
