Would I ever have expected GM to include a diesel in the Equinox powertrain lineup.

The 2.0T was expected, as was the 1.5T (good riddance you shitty 2.4L.) Diesel though? Hell no.

I’m honestly doubting it will sell all that hot, but kudos to GM for going through with even offering it with all this VW diesel hubbub.

Another reason for celebration? The current developed during the GM bankruptcy shitshow Equinox is finally dead. It’s been on sale for 7-ish years, but it feels like about double that.
