The 2018 Chevrolet Equinox safety features offer Florence and Covington, KY drivers access to the latest design, engineering, and technology to not only prevent accidents but also to keep cabin occupants safer if the worst should happen. Explore the many ways this compact crossover SUV was created to protect what matters most to you, then get into Tom Gill Chevrolet to slide behind the wheel of one of the all-new Equinox trims and see what it’s like to be safe on the road.
Chevrolet has loaded the 2018 Chevy Equinox with safety tech designed to make it one of the most secure rides on the road, including:
Available low-speed automatic braking monitors the area ahead of the vehicle and can apply the brakes if the driver fails to react to a hazard in time.
Sensors monitor the road and, if the driver drifts or changes lanes without signaling, will provide audible and visual alerts to get the vehicle back on track.
Short-range radar detectors monitor the rear of the vehicle in reverse and warns of objects moving into the crossover’s blind spot allowing the driver to react.
If drivers have opened the rear doors, they will receive an audible and visual reminder on exiting to check the rear seat for forgotten passengers.
The newly redesigned Chevy Equinox is designed to bring drivers peace of mind from the outside in. A steel reinforced safety cage is engineered to hold its shape in the event of an accident whilethe strategically placed front and rear crumple zones are designed to absorb the force of impact, giving cabin occupants a better chance of walking away from a crash.
Chevrolet has also made careful use of advanced systems to make it easier for drivers to monitor the area around the vehicle and prevent incidents, including optional equipment such as Forward Collision Alert, Rear Park Assist, Lane Change Alert, and the Safety Alert Seat, which is designed to vibrate rather than provide audible alerts – the perfect solution for drivers who may not notice the beep of an audible alert when fatigued. Drivers will have access to a standard rearview camera, or upgrade to the available Surround Vision camera system for a full 360-degree composite view of the area behind the rear of the vehicle, allowing drivers to avoid hazards that would otherwise remain hidden. Drivers who choose to finance an Equinox can also take advantage of the innovative Teen Driver system to monitor new drivers, ensuring safety equipment is used properly and pre-set driving parameters are maintained.
