Holden Equinox

The Holden Equinox was the Australian and New Zealand version of the Chevrolet Equinox crossover SUV, sold as the EQ series. Holden launched it in Australia in November 2017, with the first cars arriving in Australia and New Zealand in December. The base LS and LS+ models used a 1.5-litre turbocharged engine, a more potent 2.0-litre turbo engine was fitted to the LT, LTZ and LTZ-V, and a 1.6-litre turbo-diesel followed in 2018. It was produced at the Ramos Arizpe assembly facility of General Motors in Mexico and replaced the Korean-built five-seat Captiva. Holden halted orders on 17 October 2018 because of slow sales and unsold stock, and the Equinox was discontinued in 2020 with the rest of the Holden lineup.
