Expert Reply:
The 2017 Chevrolet Equinox is available in both 2WD (Two Wheel Drive) and AWD (All Wheel Drive). These models can both be flat-towed. In order to tow either vehicle you will need a number of different parts which I will attach for you below.
Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit part # RM-523184-5
Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar part # RM-520
Roadmaster 64" Single Hook, Straight Safety Cables part # RM-645
Hopkins Custom Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles part # HM56108
Demco SBS Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System part # SM99251
If this does not answer your question please just let me know.
