As stylish and capable as ever, the 2022 Equinox LT Trim will help you make a big entrance wherever you go. As the mid-grade Equinox model, the LT comes standard with an enviable list of creature comforts and tech features. Compared to the base LS trim level, this compact crossover also offers a much more impressive list of options. Let’s take a look.
Why choose the 2022 Equinox LT Trim?
Although it costs a little more than the base model, the LT still maintains a reasonably low price. And, compared to the entry-level LS, the mid-grade Equinox LT trim model also comes with a longer list of utility features, including fold-flat rear seats that can expand the cargo hold.
Compared to the base Equinox, choosing the LT also gives you access to a longer list of optional features. For example, you can add roof rails to help transport larger items, like surfboards or kayaks. The Equinox LT even offers a panoramic power sunroof!

For example, the LT adds a power driver’s seat and a snazzy digital gauge cluster.
