Chevrolet Equinox 2026 Price in UAE

One nameplate, two entirely different powertrains: the Equinox is sold here as a conventional turbo-petrol crossover and, at the top of the range, as a battery-electric car wearing the same badge. Which one you are pricing changes every other answer.

How much does the Chevrolet Equinox cost in the UAE?

Two of the 2026 trims share a price. AED 80,000 buys either the 1.5T LS (FWD) or the all-wheel-drive version of the same 1.5-litre car, so driven wheels cost nothing extra at the entry point. Above them sit a 2.0-litre turbo and then the RS EV FWD at AED 179,000, which is the electric one and a different purchase altogether.

Which Equinox trim is the one to buy?

Take the all-wheel-drive 1.5 — it costs the same as the front-driven car, which makes the decision easy. Step up only if you want the bigger turbo engine's overtaking pace. The electric RS is worth it only if you can charge at home; without a home charger the petrol cars are the sensible buy, because the car does not depend on public infrastructure.

Chevrolet Equinox or Kia Sportage?

The Equinox gives you more metal and a bigger boot for the money than either Korean rival, and the free all-wheel drive at the entry point is a genuine advantage. The Kia Sportage is better equipped and much stronger at resale; the Hyundai Tucson is the easier car to sell on. Where the Equinox wins is the price of entry.

Does the Chevrolet Equinox hold its value, and what should you watch for as it ages?

Weakly, and it is the main mark against buying new: about 35% of its value after five years, where American SUVs here average nearer 44%. That is an argument for letting someone else take the first years of depreciation. Compact crossovers in this segment lead hard lives in city traffic, so check the inspection report for previous panel work and suspension wear on the individual car.

What does a Chevrolet Equinox cost to run in the UAE?

The 1.5-litre returns about 14.9 Km/L, which is genuinely frugal for a crossover of this size, and servicing is cheap. Note who you will deal with before you buy: the franchise is split, with Al Ghandi Auto covering Dubai and the Northern Emirates and Bin Hamoodah Auto covering Abu Dhabi and Al Ain.
