Comparison Review

Comfort
The Cadillac VISTIQ offers rear passengers about the same room to stretch out as the Chevrolet Equinox, with comparable head- and legroom. The Cadillac VISTIQ will be popular with taller drivers and passengers in the front seat, due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Chevrolet Equinox.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Cadillac VISTIQ will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Chevrolet Equinox, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Cadillac VISTIQ is much wider than the Chevrolet Equinox, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. If you go with the Cadillac VISTIQ, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the Chevrolet Equinox.

Utility
The Cadillac VISTIQ offers greater seating capacity than the Chevrolet Equinox, making it a better choice for those who find themselves chauffeuring others around. With the Cadillac VISTIQ, you'll be able to haul more equipment or luggage than the Chevrolet Equinox.
