Chevrolet Equinox EV 2026 offers up to 513 km range as Canadian families consider electric SUV options
The used Cupra Leon ST e‑Hybrid 245 hp is listed for €24,880, featuring a 1.4 L TSI engine paired with a 13 kWh battery that delivers 35–45 km of electric driving and a combined fuel consumption of about 1.5 L/100 km. Its equipment list includes a panoramic roof, heated seats and advanced driver‑assist systems, positioning it as a powerful yet affordable family wagon for markets such as South Korea.
Renault has launched the 4 E‑Tech Plein Sud, a compact electric SUV with a removable canvas roof that adds an open‑air experience. Built on the classic 4L design, the model retains its 1.462 ton weight plus a modest 19 kg increase for the roof mechanism. It houses a dual‑screen infotainment system, 18‑inch wheels and a denim‑style interior, aiming to boost sales in Europe after the standard 4 E‑Tech’s modest performance.
In Canada, Chevrolet’s 2026 Equinox EV is priced from C$49,633 for the LT front‑wheel‑drive version, which can travel up to 513 km on a single charge. The SUV produces 241 hp, charges at 150 kW (about 200 km in 20 minutes), and offers a 17.7‑inch central screen with Google integration, heated front seats and ample cargo space, targeting families seeking a practical electric vehicle.
