General Motors is launching the 2024 Chevy Equinox EV this fall, what it calls “an affordable game-changer,” with a starting price of around $30,000. Ahead of its official launch, the electric SUV was spotted rolling off GM’s production line at its Ramos Arizpe plant in Mexico.
After introducing several new high-volume electric models last year, including the Chevy Silverado EV, Chevy Blazer EV, and Chevy Equinox EV, GM expects a breakout over the next several years.
Despite plans to discontinue its top-selling Chevy Bolt EV and EUV models, GM is confident in its Ultium-based strategy. A significant part of its strategy includes providing an “EV for everyone” with electric models in all major segments.
As the brand’s second-highest-selling brand nameplate, GM is expecting the electric Equinox model to play a significant role in the company’s transition.
The affordable all-electric SUV, starting at around $30,000, offers everything buyers look for in the gas-powered Equinox, including space, safety, style, and value, but with a modern upgrade.
Although the 2024 Chevy Equinox EV isn’t scheduled to start production later this year, the Ramos Arizpe plant is already building models. Alongside the Blazer EV, GM is producing 100 units a day for exports, according to local news Zocalo.
Images of the new Equinox EV rolling off the production line have been circulating on social media, such as the one posted above.
The electric models could be a part of a “Captured Test Fleet” vehicle program to test and evaluate the models, as GM Authority points out. However, they do have a VIN suggesting they could also be sold at a later date.

Chevy also promises the latest safety and tech for its all-electric Equinox with several safety assist functions, including Chevy Safety Assist, available Head-Up Display, and GM’s Super Cruise.
On the inside, the electric SUV features a spacious cabin with several storage options and up to 57 cubic feet of max cargo room (with the rear seat folded).
With standard DC fast-charging capabilities of up to 150 kW, GM estimates the Equinox can add 70 miles of range in 10 minutes. The new 2024 Chevy Equinox EV will be available this fall, starting with a limited edition 2RS model.
