2027 Chevrolet Equinox EV: Range, Charging & Value in Waynesboro
The 2027 Chevrolet Equinox EV is an electric compact SUV with an EPA-estimated 319 miles of range‡ on front-wheel drive, a starting MSRP of $36,795†, and — new for 2027 — a native NACS port that plugs straight into Tesla Superchargers. For Waynesboro drivers weighing an EV for the first time, those three facts cover most of what matters.
How far does the 2027 Equinox EV go on a charge?
Every 2027 Equinox EV uses the same 85-kWh battery and a single-speed direct drive, so range depends on drivetrain rather than trim — the entry LT 1 goes as far as the RS. Every configuration clears 300 miles of EPA-estimated range‡.
Range and powertrain by drivetrain
| Specification | Front-Wheel Drive | All-Wheel Drive |
|---|---|---|
| EPA-estimated range‡ | 319 miles | 307 miles |
| Battery | 85 kWh | 85 kWh |
| Motor layout | Single motor | Dual motor |
| Horsepower | 220 hp | 300 hp |

| Transmission | Single-speed direct drive | Single-speed direct drive |
| Availability | Standard on LT 1, LT 2 and RS | Available on LT 1, LT 2 and RS |

Charging the 2027 Equinox EV: what changed this year
NACS and Tesla Supercharger access
The headline change for 2027 is the charge port. The Equinox EV moves from CCS to the North American Charging Standard (NACS), which Chevrolet says expands access to more charging stations — in practice, direct use of the Tesla Supercharger network without an adapter. For rural and small-town drivers, that does more for everyday usability than any spec on the sheet. Optional GM CCS1 and J1772 adapters cover non-NACS stations.
Charging speeds and hardware
Chevrolet states the Equinox EV can add up to 80 miles of range in 10 minutes on public DC fast charging, peaking at 150 kW.
| Charging Specification | 2027 Equinox EV |
|---|---|
| Charge port | NACS — new and standard for 2027 |
| Adapters available | GM CCS1 DC fast-charging adapter, J1772 adapter |
| Battery | 85 kWh |
| DC fast-charge peak rate | 150 kW |
| DC fast charging, 10 minutes | Up to 80 miles of range |
| Level 2 onboard charger | 11.5 kW, standard on all trims |
| 19.2-kW onboard charger | Discontinued for 2027 |
| Bidirectional charging | Discontinued for 2027 |
If faster home charging or vehicle-to-home capability drove your interest, confirm the details with our team before ordering — both were available on earlier model years and are not offered on the 2027.

2027 Equinox EV pricing by trim
Three trims: LT 1, LT 2, and RS. Front-wheel drive is standard on each, with all-wheel drive available across the lineup.
| Trim | Front-Wheel Drive | All-Wheel Drive | Wheels | What It Adds |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LT 1 | $36,795 MSRP† | $42,095 MSRP† | 19-inch aluminum | Cloth seating, automatic climate control, full LED exterior lighting |
| LT 2 | $43,595 MSRP† | $46,895 MSRP† | 19-inch aluminum | Synthetic leather, heated mirrors, ambient interior lighting, roof rails, plus the heated-seat, charging and camera features in the table below |
| RS | $45,895 MSRP† | $49,195 MSRP† | 21-inch | Everything on LT 2, plus red interior accents and a flat-bottom steering wheel |
One detail worth knowing before you shop: all-wheel drive adds $5,300 on the LT 1 but only $3,300 on the LT 2 and RS. If AWD is a requirement, the step up to LT 2 costs less than the sticker gap suggests.
†Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for new vehicles includes manufacturer and distributor options and delivery, process and handling fees, which may be subject to change at any time. MSRP excludes taxes, title, license and dealer installed options, accessories, fees and charges. MSRP is not the dealer advertised price. Dealer price will vary. The dealer sets the final price.

What the end of the federal EV tax credit means for your price
If you shopped EVs a year ago, your math probably started with $7,500 off. That is no longer the case.
| Federal Incentive | Former Value | Status as of October 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| New Clean Vehicle Credit (Section 30D) | Up to $7,500 | Ended for vehicles acquired after September 30, 2025 |
| Used Clean Vehicle Credit (Section 25E) | Up to $4,000 | Ended for vehicles acquired after September 30, 2025 |
| Home EV Charger Credit (Section 30C) | 30%, up to $1,000 | Expired June 30, 2026 |
We would rather tell you that up front than have you find out at the desk. The Equinox EV’s value case now rests on its own sticker rather than on a credit — and at $36,795 MSRP† with 319 EPA-estimated miles of range‡, that case still holds up in the segment. Chevrolet offers and financing terms change frequently, so check our specials or talk to us directly for what applies this month.

Technology: a 17.7-inch screen, Google built-in, and one notable omission
Every 2027 Equinox EV comes standard with a 17.7-inch center touchscreen — which Chevrolet describes as the largest among EVs in its class — and an 11-inch Driver Information Center. Google built-in is standard, with Google Maps navigation that routes around charging stops; Google Gemini is available. Six speakers and four USB ports are standard, a Bose system is newly available for 2027, and OnStar Basics is included for eight years.
What the Equinox EV does not offer
The Equinox EV does not offer Apple CarPlay or Android Auto; Chevrolet uses its own phone-projection software. For some shoppers that is a non-issue, because Google built-in handles navigation and media natively. For others it is a dealbreaker — better known before the test drive than after.
