2023 Chevy Equinox vs. Hyundai Santa Fe

Trims and Pricing

The 2023 Chevrolet Equinox comes in four different trims with two special editions. These trims are the following:
 

• LS.

• LT.

• RS.

• Premier.

• Midnight Edition.

• Redline Edition.
   

Every trim and special edition comes with specific standard and available features, so you'll need to look at each model to determine which will best deliver your wants. The Equinox LS starts at $26,600 and increases to $31,800 for the Premier trim.

The 2023 Hyundai SANTA FE comes in 10 trims, of which five are gas-powered, three are traditional hybrids, and two are plug-in hybrid models. These trims are as follows:
 

• SE (Gas).

• SEL (Gas).

• XRT(Gas).

• Limited Calligraphy (Gas).

• Blue (Hybrid).

• SEL Premium (Hybrid).

• Limited (Hybrid).

• SEL Convenience (Plug-in hybrid).

• Limited (Plug-in hybrid).
   

As with the Equinox, each SANTA FE trim has varying standard and optional features. The SANTA FE starts at $28,750 and increases to $47,370 for the Limited plug-in hybrid.

Engine and Transmission

Every 2023 Equinox model utilizes a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine that pairs with a six-speed automatic transmission. This engine generates 175 hp and 203 lb-ft of torque. Front-wheel drive is standard for the Equinox, but if you desire maximum traction, you can opt for all-wheel drive. The EPA estimates the Equinox with front-wheel drive achieves a combined 28 mpg. You'll sacrifice some fuel efficiency with the optional all-wheel drive, which achieves a combined 26 mpg.
 

Your SANTA FE's engine depends on which trim you select. The standard engine is a 2.5-liter four-cylinder that produces 191 hp and 181 lb-ft of torque. Hyundai's standard hybrid and plug-in hybrid engines are turbocharged four-cylinders that generate 178 hp and 195 lb-ft of torque. The lowest fuel economy a SANTA FE gets is a combined 24 mpg, but it increases up to 76 mpg with the plug-in hybrid engine.

Interior and Technology

The interior of the 2023 Chevrolet Equinox is an ideal blend of durable yet stylish materials and modern technology. Whether you're a front- or rear-seat passenger, you'll have more than enough room in the spacious cabin. Plus, with a large trunk, substantial center console, and plenty of cupholders, cargo space is abundant.
 

At the center of every Equinox is a standard 7-inch infotainment touch screen, which you can increase to 8 inches if desired. This infotainment system is Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatible, so you can play whatever you want as you drive. Your music or podcasts will never sound clearer with standard active noise cancelation. Finally, with a standard 4G LTE hotspot and available wireless charging pad, your Equinox will keep you connected wherever you go.
 

The 2023 SANTA FE maintains the Hyundai tradition of well-built, if unspectacular, interiors. Still, the SANTA FE is ideal if you often need ample cargo space, and every SANTA FE has significant trunk space, which turns into a veritable cargo hold with the rear seats folded down.
 

Like the rest of SANTA FE's interior, its infotainment system is solid yet undistinguished. The SANTA FE comes standard with an 8-inch touch-screen infotainment system compatible with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. Some optional interior technology features include a wireless charging pad and a Harman Kardon premium 12-speaker audio system.
