Yup. 32 mpg!!! For an SUV/Crossover!!! That's better than my Cobalt....with more hp!

I think this was mentioned in another thread, but an article by GM warranted a new thread, I thought.

The Results Are In: The 2010 Chevy Equinox Exceeds 30 MPG on the Highway.
By Tim Herrick
Chevy Equinox Chief Engineer


Last month I told you about the difficulties I was having in keeping the keys to the new 2010 Equinox in my hands. All the folks on my team wanted to get some seat time in this baby, and for good reason.

Today, the news got even better. We had already boasted of hitting the 30 MPG highway fuel economy mark with the Equinox - making it the 9th Chevrolet vehicle to reach that point. Well, we’ve overachieved on this one.

We exceeded our initial estimates, reaching an estimated 32 MPG highway fuel economy with the Equinox. This number is far better than either the Toyota RAV-4 or Honda CR-V, and even better than the Ford Escape Hybrid model. We’re quite proud of this, and we hope and think it will draw even more customers away from the imports and into the Equinox.

By the way, this improved highway fuel economy takes the range of the Equinox to 600 miles! You could drive from Detroit to Washington, DC on one tank of gas.

We have some more great news on this vehicle related to its quietness and other features we’ll talk more about soon. Thought you’d want to know about the great news on the fuel economy. Look for the Equinox in your dealerships next month.

And like I posted on GMI...

Toyota = Owned.
Honda = Owned.
