Not sure, but the Equinox EV seems to do pretty well in these tests.

The NHTSA Search vehicle safety ratings has nothing as yet.
That's assuming that NHTSA even survives long enough to release any Equinox EV ratings, which may be a tad optimistic...

The extent of the corruption that will be standard procedure in the next administration is now becoming clear. Elon Musk put $119 million of his own money into promoting the candidacy of Donald Trump. Now, he is set to reap the reward he anticipated, as he will be appointed to run a new agency whose mission is to take a sledgehammer to every federal agency — including NHTSA, which is currently investigating whether the Tesla Full Self Driving system is safe to use on public roads. This is like Don Corleone putting Luca Brazzi in charge of customer relations for the Mafia.

Luca Brazzi sleeps with the fishes


I do share some concern but it remains to be seen how extreme the changes will actually be.

I was thinking the same thing after seeing those crash videos.

Actually, the Equinox EV looks as though it handled those crashes reasonably well. I’m sure the occupants would have been injured, but the vehicle appears to have protected the crash dummies well.

It appears our beloved Equinox EVs are now undergoing official crash testing. Still no official ratings, but this is the first step.

Was that "driver" auditioning for The Blue Man Group? :)

Seriously though, it appears the Equinox EV does a really good job of protecting the passenger compartment. However, these are only three of the dozen or so of the various crash tests to be completed.
