The compact Crossover is a car-based vehicle that has the look and feel of an SUV, but the refinement of a car. Due to its rising popularity, General Motors is expecting a growth of about 60% in this category by 2013. In fact, their first vehicle introduced since the reorganization is a completely re-designed crossover SUV called the Equinox.
Expected to lead its competitors in fuel economy, the Equinox will get over 32 miles per gallon on the highway and provide a range of nearly 550 miles. It will also have 5-star safety and six airbags, delivering the best in each of those categories.
