There are cheap EVs, and then there are desirable cheap EVs.
You can take those cars as proof that the reason EVs haven't taken over our roads yet isn't based on price alone. The problem is that, up until now, affordable electric cars have been too small, or have lacked the range, or have left out key features, or have looked too dweeby to capture the attention of most new-car buyers.
At DC fast-charging stations, the Equinox EV adds 70 miles of range in less than 10 minutes while accepting up to 150 kilowatts of power. That's an improvement over the Bolt EV and Bolt EUV, which max out at 55 kilowatts, but it falls short of the 250-kilowatt peak of the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6. At home, the standard 11.5-kilowatt Level 2 charging will add 34 miles for every hour plugged in while the top-trim 3RS model can be upgraded to 19.
The thin light bar connecting the front turn signals is included on all but the base model. Along with the tail lamps, these front lights put on a show as you approach with the key or report the battery's status as the vehicle charges. The two-tone paint job seen in the photos is optional. LT trims can be had with white roofs, while the sportier RS trims can be painted with a black roof.
