Summary

TLDRThe video reviews the 2022 Chevrolet Equinox RS, an updated compact crossover SUV priced around $190,000 in Brazil. It highlights the vehicle's comfortable ride, spacious interior, large trunk, and surprisingly good handling for the segment. However, its tight turning radius and low ground clearance could be issues. The Equinox offers the latest tech features but lacks some higher-end options found in the Premier trim.
