Chevy even sold an electric car for less than $20,000 after the federal tax credit way back in 2013.

Our drive started from downtown Detroit in a front-wheel-drive 2RS model, which comes standard with 21-inch wheels and red interior accents for a sportier appearance without a sportier driving experience.

In corners, the Equinox EV drives with the basic competence and indifference of pretty much every other compact crossover—gas, electric, or hybrid. The steering is accurate without being quick, and the ride is comfortable but not cosseting. It’s not sporty, nor is it soft.

Considering that’s par for the segment, most buyers should feel right at home.
