Key Features of the Chevrolet Colorado Truck
Check out the Chevrolet Colorado at Southwest Motors when you’re shopping for a used midsize pickup truck for sale in Pueblo, Colorado. Among the many midsize pickups on the market, the Colorado excels in key ways, such as its off-roading performance, robust capabilities, unique utility features, and affordable price. Here’s a look at the key features of the Chevrolet Colorado.
The high-output TurboMax™ engine
While its basic turbocharged engine is respectable — a mill you’ll also find on the Silverado 1500 — the available 2.7-liter TurboMax engine for the Colorado transforms this midsize pickup into a muscular beast. This well-engineered motor reaches output levels of 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque, so you can tow trailers weighing upwards of 7,700 pounds. That’s an amazing feat for a midsize truck, putting it at the top of its class in towing capacity.
Off-road-oriented trims
Many people use the Chevrolet Colorado for off-roading, especially here in Colorado. That’s why most Colorado trim levels come with great features that equip it for improved off-roading in Pueblo County. The ZR2 and ZR1 trims in particular are packed with goodies like an off-road performance display, Autotrac® 2-speed transfer case, automatic locking rear differential, Hill Descent Control, and a factory suspension lift. Newer Colorado models offer more camera views than any other truck in its class, including a segment-first underbody camera.
The convenient StowFlex Tailgate
Chevrolet loves to offer unique features on its trucks, and the Colorado gets a segment-first StowFlex Tailgate. Introduced for the 2023 model year, this unique tailgate has a lockable storage bin on its inside wall. Stash all kinds of gear in this watertight, drainable compartment; you can even use it as a drink cooler with ice!
An affordable, low-cost price
While many pickup trucks are becoming increasingly expensive, Chevrolet has kept the price of the Colorado impressively cheap. The base-model Colorado WT has been the lowest-priced new midsize pickup year after year, costing less than rivals like the Toyota Tacoma and Honda Ridgeline based on MSRP. And, you can expect a pre-owned Colorado at Southwest Motors to be even more inexpensive!
These are a handful of the many ways that the Chevrolet Colorado stands out from its competition among other midsize trucks on the market. To purchase a pre-owned Colorado truck in Pueblo, visit Southwest Motors, where we have the biggest selection of used trucks in the area.
