Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Chevrolet Equinox EV than in the Subaru Solterra. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the Chevrolet Equinox EV and the Subaru Solterra.

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). When looking only at MSRP, the Chevrolet Equinox EV will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Subaru Solterra.

Dimensions
Since the Chevrolet Equinox EV is much wider than the Subaru Solterra, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Chevrolet Equinox EV, which is slightly longer than the Subaru Solterra.

Handling
The Chevrolet Equinox EV has a larger turning radius than the Subaru Solterra, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
In terms of horsepower, it's a virtual tie between the Chevrolet Equinox EV and the Subaru Solterra.

Powertrain
With similar torque, the Chevrolet Equinox EV and the Subaru Solterra are about even in transmitting their respective horsepower to the wheels.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Chevrolet Equinox EV and the Subaru Solterra. The Chevrolet Equinox EV has less cargo space than the Subaru Solterra, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
