Curb weights sourced from the NHTSA Canadian Vehicle Specifications database and recorded per body style, with fluids and a full fuel tank but no occupants or cargo.

Against the rest of the small sport utility vehicle 4wd class

Ranked on the lightest configuration of each nameplate, the Equinox is 10 of 98 in Small Sport Utility Vehicle 4WD, 674 lbs below the 3,948 lbs median and lighter than 88 of its peers.

How the figure moved since 2015

The lightest 2015 record is 3,761 lbs; the lightest 2026 record is 3,428 lbs — 333 lbs lighter (8.9%).

At the top of the range the 2026 file reaches 4,802 lbs against 4,147 lbs in 2015, a 655 lbs increase — driven by which configurations exist, not by the same truck gaining mass.

Front and rear axle loads

At 58/42, the 3,428 lbs puts about 1,988 lbs on the front axle and 1,440 lbs on the rear — 548 lbs more over the front wheels, which is what front tires and front brake pads wear against first.

What four-wheel drive costs in weight

Every body style recorded in both drive layouts gains exactly 154 lbs moving from two-wheel to four-wheel drive — about 4.5% of the two-wheel-drive figure.

4dr SUV FWD+154 lbs3,428 lbs → 3,583 lbs

Curb weight already includes a full tank

The published 14.9-gallon tank holds about 91 lbs of gasoline at 6.1 lb per gallon, and curb weight is measured with it full. Run it to empty and the Ev 4dr SUV is effectively a 4,711 lbs vehicle — 1.9% of the figure quoted above is fuel you will burn off.

The Ev 4dr SUV is a different vehicle on the scales

The Ev 4dr SUV is not a trim level on the same chassis. Its front track measures 62.2 in against 63.8 in on the standard body — -1.6 in wider — and the body is 75.2 in across.

What the weight leaves for towing

With a With Trailering Package configuration, the 2027 Equinox is rated to pull 1,500 lbs — 0.3 times the 4,802 lbs the heaviest recorded truck weighs by itself, and 0.4 times the 3,428 lbs of the lightest.

That rating belongs to the With Trailering Package build, not to every truck on this page: a Ev 4dr SUV starts 1,373 lbs deeper into the combined rating than a 4dr SUV FWD before a trailer is coupled.

The towing figure on file is for 2027; the weights above are 2026 records.

Questions these figures answer

How much does a 2026 Chevrolet Equinox weigh?

Between 3,428 lbs (4dr SUV FWD) and 4,802 lbs (Ev 4dr SUV), depending on the configuration.

Does the Equinox's curb weight count against its tow rating?

Yes. The 1,500 lbs maximum applies to the With Trailering Package configuration, and the truck's own 3,428 lbs–4,802 lbs is already inside the combined weight the rating assumes. Heavier cab and drivetrain choices eat into what is left.

How much more does a 4x4 Equinox weigh?

154 lbs more than the same body style in two-wheel drive.
