Can you flat tow a 2022 Equinox?

I’m thinking about buying a new Chevy Equinox. My only issue is that I don’t want to buy any extra towing equipment to haul it behind my RV. Can I flat tow the 2022 Equinox or do I need to buy a trailer?

If you want to buy a new SUV, the Equinox is a solid choice. Plus, you can flat tow the 2022 Equinox without any issues, regardless of the trim, drivetrain, or engine. Just make sure to keep your speed below 65 mph and follow these directions to ensure a damage-free tow:
  1. Position the Equinox behind your RV and secure it to the towing vehicle.
  2. Start the car.
  3. If equipped with AWD, engage the AWD system.
  4. Shift the transmission to neutral.
  5. Put the vehicle into accessories mode by pressing the engine start-stop button one time without the brake pedal applied.
  6. You’re ready to flat tow!
