2017 Chevrolet Equinox LS

Owners selling privately get 19% to 25% less than dealers ask for the same trim, year and mileage. The low end is how the big pricing guides value a private sale (what buyers pay dealers, less a private-party discount); the high end is what private sellers’ asking prices and private-party sales show. A trade-in usually fetches less still.

Priced as LS: 287 of the 288 cars we’ve seen with this VIN pattern are. Median of 86 final asking prices of this trim & year (listings that ended), adjusted to 85k mi ($12,371 nationally), its history (1 accident −1.5%) and where it is (Texas −3.8%).
