The Chevy Colorado is ready to perform. Under the hood of every Chevy Colorado is a 2.7-liter engine mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. The base trims use the powertrain to produce 237 horsepower and 259 pound-feet of torque. The Trail Boss and Z71 trims use a more potent version of the same 2.7-liter engine to kick out 301 horsepower. The range-topping ZR2 provides the most power through the same engine issuing 310 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque.

A dialed-in capability with up to five selectable driving modes makes the road less traveled even easier to conquer. The ZR2 adds skid plates for rough terrain around Fayetteville, NC. Another bright spot in the performance segment is the best-in-class available towing capacity of 7,700 pounds. The available Trailering package with surround cameras and integrated trailer braking makes towing a cinch.

From the onset, the new Chevy Colorado is a head-turner. As you scale up the trims, the wheelbase ranges from 17 to 20 inches. Beltline moldings are standard, and you'll have enough bed lighting to delight your friends at a tailgating party.

The sporty interior of the Chevy Colorado matches its exterior styling. The Chevrolet truck is comfortable, thanks to its front bucket seats, 40.3 inches of headroom, and 45.2 inches of legroom in the front. Eight tie-downs are standard and nine are available, contributing to the truck's best-in-class 17 tie-downs for arranging your cargo. An available Stow Flex tailgate that is 45 inches wide also has a drain plug, so it can serve as a cooler for sunny days. A 110-Volt power outlet is available in the bed, and a 12-Volt power outlet is standard.

Every new Colorado has an 11.3-inch diagonal touchscreen to keep you engaged as you drive through Dunn, NC. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration and a six-speaker sound system are standard amenities. The new Chevy Colorado can also come with built-in Google apps and voice-activated navigation that you can personalize using your Google account. USB-C and USB-A ports in the front row are standard to keep your gadgets powered as you drive to Sanford, NC. Wireless charging is available for most models and standard on select trims, such as the Z71. A rear-view camera is standard, but for the best view of your truck, there's an available 10-view camera system that helps you get out of tight parking spaces.

The 2023 Colorado delivers on the safety front, with standard and available safety and driver-assistance features. The Chevy Assist features are standard on all trims, except the base WT. Standard features you'll find essential for your journeys in Lillington include:
