' 1,200-lbs '

It's an 'SUV', rather than a 'station wagon'.
It must be engineered to satisfy the structural requirements for 'off-road' capabilities.
It' also a 'weight-class' 'larger' than the BOLT, along with the 'class' jump in projected frontal area ( taller & wider ).
The Hyundai IONIQ 5 is a direct competitor, and a 'benchmark' for the Equinox R&D specifications.
Where I live, the dealers won't even mention the Equinox BEV, just the 'gas-burner'.
For the EV, they want to sell 'Blazers.'
