Not much change has been seen in the Colorado lineup this year. The only difference is the addition of the new dealer-installed Trail Boss package. The package enhances the off-road abilities of the LT and Z71. It adds a leveling kit that gives the suspension a 1.0-inch lift and bolts skid plates to the front and middle of its underbelly. It competes with the Toyota Tacoma and Ford Ranger. This truck is offered in four trim levels: WT, LT, Z71, and ZR2. Let’s talk about the Colorado LT trim level. There is a choice to select the extended or crew cab. Further variations are made by choosing either the short or long box. It is offered both in Two-Wheel Drive and Four-Wheel Drive. The Colorado LT Crew cab long box 4WD is powered by a 3.6L 6-cylinder engine paired with 8-speed automatic transmission. The engine produces 308 hp @ 6800 rpm Horsepower and gives 275 lb-ft of torque @ 4000 rpm Torque. The Colorado LT gives a fuel economy of 17 MPG in the city and 24 MPG on the highway. The 5-seater truck comes with a fuel tank capacity of 21 gallons. Its top speed is capped at 130 MPH, and its acceleration is 0-60 MPH in 9.2 seconds. Colorado offers desirable interior features, including a six-way power driver’s seat easy-to-use infotainment system, which includes a seven-inch touch screen granting access to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Some upgraded features include an enlarged 8-inch Infotainment screen, navigation and fog lamps. Its starting price is 36495$. For more specs and features, look at the following spec sheet.
