The all-new 2010 Chevy Equinox will go on sale this June with a starting price of $22,440. That price is $1,875 less than the outgoing Equinox and puts it about on par with the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4. The 2010 Equinox will sport a 182-hp four-cylinder base engine that Chevy estimates will return 21/30 mpg city/highway; final EPA numbers are pending. That number beats the CR-V’s 20/27 mpg figure significantly and tops the RAV4 in terms of highway mileage; that SUV gets 22/28 mpg city/highway.  The Equinox’s size, however, puts it a bit between those compact SUVs and larger ones like Ford’s Edge. It has 20 more cubic feet of interior volume than the imports, even though it doesn’t sport as much cargo room. That’s a good place to be, especially if the price keeps it competitive with the smaller players. A V-6 engine will also be available. It produces 264 hp and is estimated to get 18/25 mpg city/highway. That’s just 1 mpg better than the outgoing model’s more antiquated engine, and it’s not as good as the V-6 RAV4, which gets 19/27 mpg. We liked the looks and interior of the new Equinox when we saw it at this year’s Detroit auto show, and this price makes the new model even more attractive. More news on the Chevy Equinox
