The new Chevrolet Equinox EV features a fully digital dashboard that displays battery and energy information in real time. This system combines a digital driver information centre and a large central touchscreen. Together, these displays provide detailed battery status, range estimates, charging data, and energy usage metrics.

Battery System Overview

The Equinox EV uses a high-voltage lithium-ion battery pack integrated into the vehicle platform.

Key characteristics include:

• Ultium battery architecture
• Floor-mounted battery placement
• High-voltage system for propulsion
• Regenerative braking capability

Battery capacity varies by trim and drivetrain configuration.

Battery Capacity and Configuration

Available battery setups include:

• Standard battery configuration
• Extended-range battery configuration

Depending on trim and drivetrain, estimated driving range can exceed 480 kilometres on a full charge.

The battery pack forms part of the structural floor, which supports weight distribution and chassis rigidity.

Digital Driver Information Centre

11-Inch Digital Instrument Display

The Equinox EV includes an approximately 11-inch digital instrument cluster behind the steering wheel.

Battery-related information displayed includes:

• Battery state of charge (percentage)
• Estimated remaining driving range (kilometres)
• Energy usage history
• Regenerative braking status
• Power output gauge

The display layout allows drivers to monitor battery condition without shifting attention to the central screen.

Central Touchscreen Display

17.7-Inch Infotainment Screen

The Equinox EV features an approximately 17.7-inch central touchscreen.

Battery and charging information available on this screen includes:

• Charging status
• Estimated time to full charge
• Charging power level (kW)
• Charging limit settings
• Energy consumption breakdown

The infotainment system integrates with vehicle settings to manage charging preferences.

State of Charge Indicator

The dashboard shows battery charge in two primary formats:

• Percentage indicator
• Graphical battery icon

The percentage value provides precise measurement. The graphical icon offers a quick visual reference.

This information appears in the instrument cluster and on the central display.

Estimated Range Display

The system calculates estimated range based on:

• Recent driving efficiency
• Climate control usage
• Driving mode

Range appears in kilometres and updates dynamically as driving conditions change.

Energy Usage Screen

The central display includes an energy information screen.

Displayed data may include:

• Average energy consumption (kWh/100 km)
• Recent trip energy usage
• Climate system energy impact
• Driving behaviour influence on consumption

This data helps drivers understand how vehicle operation affects range.

Regenerative Braking Indicator

The instrument cluster includes a regenerative braking gauge.

Features include:

• Visual feedback during deceleration
• Indicator of energy recovery
• Power meter with charge and discharge zones

When the vehicle slows, the display shows energy flowing back into the battery.

Charging Information Display

The dashboard provides detailed charging data.

AC Charging Information

When connected to a Level 2 AC charger, the system displays:

• Charging rate (kW)
• Estimated completion time
• Target charge percentage

DC Fast Charging Information

When connected to a DC fast charger, the system displays:

• Current charging power
• Battery temperature status
• Estimated time to reach selected charge level

Charging progress appears on both screens.

Charging Limit Settings

The system allows adjustment of maximum charge level.

Drivers can set:

• Charge limit percentage
• Scheduled charging time

This function helps manage battery health and energy cost planning.

Settings appear within the infotainment energy menu.

Battery Temperature Monitoring

The vehicle monitors battery temperature through an integrated thermal management system.

Dashboard indications may include:

• Temperature status notification
• Reduced charging power alert if needed

The system manages battery cooling and heating automatically.

Drive Mode and Energy Display

Drive modes influence:

• Acceleration response
• Regenerative braking intensity
• Energy usage

Battery dashboard screens reflect these changes through updated range and consumption figures.

One-Pedal Driving Display

The Equinox EV includes regenerative braking modes that support one-pedal driving.

The dashboard indicates:

• Regeneration level
• Energy recovery activity

This appears within the power gauge area of the instrument cluster.

Trip and Energy History

The infotainment system stores trip energy data.

Information may include:

• Distance travelled
• Average energy consumption
• Energy efficiency score

This data appears in graphical and numerical formats.

Low Battery Alerts

The system provides alerts when battery charge drops below predefined levels.

Notifications may include:

• Low range warning
• Charging station suggestion via navigation system
• Reduced propulsion output warning at very low charge

These alerts appear in the instrument cluster.

Navigation and Range Integration

If equipped with built-in navigation, the system can integrate battery data with route planning.

Features may include:

• Range projection to destination
• Charging stop recommendation
• Estimated battery level at arrival

Range calculations update based on driving conditions.

At Jenner Chevrolet, customers often review this feature during technology walkthroughs.
