West Herr Chevrolet of Hamburg, on Southwestern Blvd in Hamburg, NY, put the 2027 Chevrolet Equinox up against the 2026 Honda CR-V for shore-town shoppers cross-shopping compact SUVs. The Equinox LT starts at $30,995 — $1,375 less than the CR-V LX's $32,370 — and comes standard with an 11.3-inch touchscreen and heated front seats the CR-V doesn't match at the same trim, though the CR-V wins outright on cargo room.
| Spec | 2027 Chevrolet Equinox LT | 2026 Honda CR-V LX |
|---|---|---|
| Starting MSRP | $30,995 | $32,370 |
| Engine | 1.5L turbo, 175 hp / 203 lb-ft | 1.5L turbo, 190 hp / 179 lb-ft |
| Transmission | 8-speed automatic | CVT (gas) / eCVT (hybrid) |
| Max cargo space | 63.5 cu ft | 76.5 cu ft gas / 71.8 cu ft hybrid |
| Max towing | 1,500 lb (AWD) | 1,500 lb gas / 1,000 lb hybrid |
| Standard touchscreen | 11.3-in. + 11-in. driver display | 9-in. + 7-in. TFT meter |
| Hybrid available | No — gas-only lineup | Yes, up to 43 city / 36 hwy / 40 combined MPG |
Prose version for the numbers above: the Equinox undercuts the CR-V on starting price by $1,375, puts more touchscreen in front of the driver standard, and makes do without a hybrid option, while the CR-V answers back with a genuinely bigger trunk — 76.5 cubic feet against the Equinox's 63.5 — and a hybrid powertrain rated as high as 43 mpg combined that no Equinox trim currently matches.
The Equinox LT's $30,995 starting price beats the CR-V LX's $32,370 by $1,375, and Chevy puts an 11.3-inch touchscreen plus an 11-inch driver display in front of every Equinox buyer standard, next to the CR-V's smaller 9-inch screen and 7-inch gauge cluster at the same trim level. Every Equinox trim also gets heated front seats and a heated steering wheel standard — features Honda doesn't include until a higher CR-V trim.
Worth saying plainly: the Honda CR-V wins on cargo, full stop. Its 76.5 cubic feet of maximum space (71.8 on the hybrid) beats the Equinox's 63.5 by a real margin that matters for a shopper who regularly hauls gear, and the CR-V's available hybrid powertrain, rated up to 43 mpg combined, is a fuel-economy option the gas-only Equinox lineup simply doesn't offer this model year.
West Herr Chevrolet of Hamburg's Southwestern Blvd showroom carries new Equinox inventory for shore-town shoppers from Hamburg village out to Lackawanna, Blasdell, Eden, Angola, Derby, and Evans, and the sales team can walk a shopper through both the Equinox and a CR-V test drive comparison without leaving the shore lane for a Buffalo dealership.
