How is the Brazilian SUV market doing with the arrival of the new Chevrolet Equinox 2025?
The midsize SUV segment is marked by intense competition and constant innovation. Manufacturers seek to balance competitive prices with the provision of cutting-edge technology and differentiated features.
The price increase of Chevrolet's new car may influence consumer perception, especially considering options available in lower price ranges with similar or superior features in terms of power. However, Chevrolet has a loyal customer base that values the brand's history of reliability and quality.
Hahaha, the illustrious reviewer is quite optimistic! If everything goes well for GM and the Equinox sells well, they'll sell about 400 or 500 per month, remaining at the bottom of the mid-size SUV market. With that lame engine, the Compass will only be seen from the rear.
Yes, it is the most modern SUV on the market, but it costs a lot.
