I own a 2024 Equinox EV RS. Unfortunately, it has a significant safety problem. The dash is highly reflective which causes severe windshield glare that obstructs the driver's vision. Numerous owners have posted about this problem on various EV forums. To date, Chevy has no fix. If you are considering purchasing this vehicle, be sure to test drive it on a sunny day. Buyer beware. If you are an owner and experiencing this problem report it to the NHTSA (https://www.nhtsa.gov/report-a-safety-problem#index).

3.9 miles per KWh is nothing to write home about. I've been getting 5 miles per KWh over the last 1400 miles and 208Wh/mile over the total 3500 miles that I've owned my 2024 Model 3 AWD, my old 2019 Model 3 AWD averaged 239Wh/mile over the five years I owned it. My miles are mostly road trip miles. With the dealer markup you mentioned the Chevy is the same price as a Model 3 AWD. Without the dealer markup it's the same price as a Model 3 RWD. Teslas don't have dealers so no dealer markups or unnecessary add ones.
