PERFORMANCE
Chevrolet Colorado

So, what’s your type? If you like a hometown hero with a wild side, you’ll fall head over wheels for the Colorado. This truck is down for anything. We’re talking overlanding, jet skiing on the first date, or settling down and building a home together. The Chevrolet Colorado will surprise you in the best ways possible, breathing life into your quest for a new vehicle.

A Strong Match

The Colorado has a lot of heart to give, thanks to its two available powertrains:

  • 2.7L Turbo engine: 237 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque
  • Available 2.7L TurboMax™ engine: 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque

Harnessing all that power under the hood is an enhanced 8-speed automatic transmission. The power gets sent to the wheels, which operate on a 2-wheel drive or available 4-wheel drive platform. So, if your journey to find your perfect match was bumpy, seeing the Colorado will be refreshing and smooth.

The Chevrolet Colorado will be a strong competitor against your other vehicle matches with the help of its unsurpassed maximum towing capacity of 7,700 pounds. A little extra muscle never hurts.

Quench Your Thirst for Adventure

Do you crave more spontaneity and adventure in your life? Wait until you meet the off-road-tuned trims of the Chevrolet Colorado. The Colorado ZR2 Bison, a collaboration with American Expedition Vehicles (AEV), holds several best-in-class records, including ground clearance (12.2 inches), breakover angle, and underbody protection (five boron steel skid plates). If love is a battlefield, you’ll want this durable truck by your side.

If a versatile vehicle is one of your non-negotiables, the Colorado is ready to prove how flexible it is. With the available Driver Mode Selector, you gain up to five drive modes—Off-Road, Terrain, Baja, Tow/Haul, and Normal—to set the mood. You’ll instantly click with this feature since shifting modes is as simple as twisting a dial.

UTILITY
Chevrolet Colorado

The Chevrolet Colorado may have rugged good looks and drool-worthy curb appeal, but it also puts the fun in functional. This pickup was designed to help you do more of what you love: play hard.

Safe and Secure

The Colorado impresses with its just over 5-foot-long cargo bed. It can house up to 41.9 cubic feet of gear between its four walls. We’re talking camping gear, lumber and tools, or a romantic gesture like a blanket and some pillows for stargazing.

With eight standard tie-downs in the bed, you can secure your most precious cargo, like your favorite mountain bike or canoe! The Colorado doubles down and offers up to 17 tie-downs, a best-in-class record, proving that its devotion to you and your love for adventure isn’t going anywhere.

Attractive Attributes

What’s more appealing than an adaptable vehicle? The Chevrolet Colorado’s dedication to your convenience, perhaps! This truck features a flexible design and several convenience tools, proving it has the chops to satisfy your wants and needs:

  • CornerStep rear bumper
  • Available cargo bed LED lighting
  • Built-in bed power outlet

The tailgate of the Colorado helps you work hard and play hard. The available StowFlex Tailgate is a lockable storage compartment built into the tailgate. You can store tools and emergency equipment easily. It even includes a drain, serving as an ice chest at your next football tailgate.

When you’re ready to get to work, the Mid-Position Tailgate will help you transport longer items and support up to 500 pounds. Plus, there’s no need to carry around a measuring tape anymore. The Colorado has a measuring tool built into the tailgate!

TECHNOLOGY
Chevrolet Colorado

A truck that’s up to date with the latest tech and safety innovations is a hot commodity. After all, you want to feel protected and entertained at every twist and turn of your journey. Chevrolet refreshed the Colorado’s cockpit and made its safety suite standard. Are you ready to hand your digits over to the Colorado?

A Pulse on Life

Chevrolet treats drivers to ample display real estate. Behind the wheel, you’ll find an 11-inch Driver Information Center, helping you keep the truck’s digital pulse. Shift your eyes shortly to the right, and you’ll land on the 11.3-inch touchscreen, your entertainment hub. The following smartphone integrations come standard:

  • Bluetooth®
  • Wireless Apple CarPlay®
  • Wireless Android Auto™
  • Google Built-In

These integrations allow you to use your voice to command the infotainment suite, make a call, send text messages, or request directions to a go-to date location.

Choosing a truck to have and to hold requires some reflection. Hindsight is 20/20, and with the Chevrolet’s 10 available camera views, it’s also 360 degrees. You can even see what’s below the Colorado with the segment-first underbody cameras!

In Sickness and In Health

The Chevrolet Colorado comes standard with Chevrolet Safety Assist. This safety suite vows to protect you in sickness and in health with the help of these intuitive features:

  • Automatic Emergency Braking
  • Forward Collision Alert
  • Front Pedestrian and Bicyclist Braking
  • Following Distance Indicator
  • Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning
  • IntelliBeam®

More devotion comes from the Colorado’s available features, which include Adaptive Cruise Control, Blind Zone Steering Assist, and Rear Park Assist, just to name a few.
