Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Chevrolet Equinox than in the Subaru Forester.
The Subaru Forester will be a hit with tall drivers and their front seat passengers, since it has greater front head- and legroom than the Chevrolet Equinox.
Cost

When looking at overall length, the Chevrolet Equinox takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Subaru Forester.
