The Chevy Equinox EV is already one of the most affordable electric vehicles, but with a 20% discount, it’s even more tempting. Chevy Equinox EV discounts hit $10,000, 20% off MSRP With the 2027 model year on its way, the 2026 Chevy Equinox EV is a steal this month. After offering a $5,000 discount on 2026 Equinox EV models in January, Chevy is doubling again this month with up to $10,000 in total cash allowance. That’s 20% below the $45,895 MSRP for the 2026 Equinox EV RS. The deal includes $8,750 in customer cash, plus an additional $1,250 in conquest cash. Those who lease a 2021 model year or newer vehicle or own a 2012 model year or newer non-GM vehicle can take advantage of the conquest bonus. Although the max $10,000 discount is only available on the RS trim, Chevy increased the savings on the LT 1 model to $6,500 and the LT 2 to $8,000.

It also keeps the Equinox EV among the most affordable EVs currently on sale, alongside the new Bolt and Nissan LEAF. The cheapest 2026 Chevy Equinox EV LT 1 (FWD) offers up to 319 miles of range, compared with 262 miles for the 2027 Bolt and 303 miles for the new Nissan LEAF.

Chevy Equinox EV discounts and finance deals in April 2026 (Source: Chevrolet) Top comment by Anupreet Singh Liked by 35 people Bought an Equinox for $26k plus taxes in December for the base model. Great deal! Best part is the ride, which is very smooth. Haven't missed the Android Auto/Carplay which others feel so essential. Integrated Google comes free for 8 years. View all comments Chevy has the 2026 Equinox EV FWD LT with LT1 and the convenience package listed for $269 a month for 39 months with $3,659 due at signing. You can also opt for 0% APR financing plus an extra $1,250 purchase allowance for those who own or lease a 2012 model year or newer non-GM vehicle. For a 24-month lease with $3,999 due at delivery, the Tesla Model Y RWD costs $549 a month. Even the Chevy Bolt EV is more expensive to lease than the Hyundai IONIQ at $477 a month for 24 months with $3,999 down. Which one are you choosing? GM still calls the Chevy Equinox EV “America’s most affordable 315+ mile range EV,” and it seems to be. However, when it comes to leasing, the Hyundai IONIQ 5 appears to have it beat this month.
