2026 EQUINOX EV • CABIN & CARGO
The 2026 Chevrolet Equinox EV seats five and provides 26.4 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seat, or 57.2 cubic feet with the rear seat folded. Start with our Equinox EV inventory, then compare the cabin and equipment of the actual SUVs that interest you.
This guide covers the electric 2026 Equinox EV. Its dimensions, displays and seating choices are separate from the gasoline Equinox. Use the figures below to plan a visit, and bring the passengers or cargo measurements that determine whether the cabin works for you.
The following rounded measurements come from the 2026 GM Equinox EV specification guide. They provide a useful reference for comparing the two seating rows. Your seating position and the particular vehicle’s equipment still matter when judging comfort.
On a smaller screen, scroll across the table to compare all columns.
| Measurement | Front row | Rear row |
|---|---|---|
| Headroom | 39.1 | 38.5 |
| Legroom | 41.7 | 38.0 |
| Shoulder room | 58.6 | 55.4 |
| Hip room | 56.0 | 50.7 |
| Seating positions | 2 | 3 |
Set the driver’s seat for your height before checking rear legroom. Try the rear seat with the front seats in realistic positions, and test the door openings and entry for the people who will use them. A dimension table cannot establish the fit of every child restraint or seating combination.
Use the seats-up figure for ordinary trips with rear passengers. The maximum figure is relevant when you can fold the rear seat and carry fewer people. The volume difference does not tell you the width of the opening or whether a particular box will clear it.
On a smaller screen, scroll across the table to compare all columns.
| Seat arrangement | Cargo volume | Useful comparison |
|---|---|---|
| Behind the second row; rear seat upright | 26.4 cu. ft. | Groceries, bags and everyday cargo with rear passengers. |
| Behind the front row; rear seat folded | 57.2 cu. ft. | Larger loads when the rear seating area is available. |
The dual-height cargo floor gives you another arrangement to try during a visit. Bring measurements for a stroller, mobility item or bulky luggage, and check the opening, load floor and liftgate clearance. Cargo and passengers must remain within the vehicle’s weight and loading limits.
The 2026 Equinox EV trim guide explains LT 1, LT 2 and RS. For the interior, the GM guide identifies these seating-color families. Confirm the installed material and package on the window sticker; a color sample is not a substitute for viewing the cabin.
On a smaller screen, scroll across the table to compare all columns.
| Trim | Interior choices | What to compare |
|---|---|---|
| LT 1 | Black cloth | Seat adjustment, comfort and the options fitted to the vehicle. |
| LT 2 | Black Evotex with Blue Accents or Sky Cool Gray Evotex | Your preferred finish and the convenience equipment included. |
| RS | Black Evotex with Red Accents or Adrenaline Red Evotex | The RS appearance and seating feel in person. |
Do not infer ventilation, memory or a power passenger seat from the upholstery alone. Chevrolet lists ventilated front seats and a six-way power front passenger seat among Convenience Package II highlights available on LT 2 and RS. Verify the package before expecting those functions.
The 2026 Equinox EV has a standard 17.7-inch diagonal center touchscreen and an 11-inch driver display. Google built-in compatibility is part of its infotainment approach. It does not come with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto capability, so shoppers moving from a phone-projection system should try the functions they use most.
Ask for a demonstration of navigation, audio, calling and the applicable account setup. Check the service-plan requirements for connected features and what continues after any included service period. Wireless device charging is a separate feature from the way apps appear on the screen; confirm compatibility with your phone.
For other electric-vehicle questions, our Chevrolet EV research center can help you identify the next topic to discuss. The cabin comparison should be part of an ownership plan that also includes charging access.
Comparing another electric Chevrolet? The 2026 Equinox EV versus Blazer EV guide separates their cargo and configuration choices. If you are considering gasoline instead, use the 2026 gasoline Equinox interior guide and gasoline Equinox inventory rather than transferring these EV measurements.
For an older candidate from our used electric-vehicle inventory, check the model year, condition and equipment. Our 2025 Equinox EV interior guide is the appropriate companion for a 2025 vehicle; this page remains scoped to 2026.
Write down the features that change the decision: front-seat comfort, rear-passenger access, cargo with the rear seat occupied, supported phone functions and the controls you reach often. Try those items on each finalist, rather than choosing only by the largest screen or the maximum cargo number.
Once the cabin fits, bring the vehicle quote and charging questions to our finance team. Include any trade in the discussion and confirm what equipment or accessories come with the specific vehicle. A clear shortlist makes the next conversation more useful.
