2026 Chevrolet Colorado

WT establishes the lineup with durable interior appointments, Chevy Safety Assist, and an 11-inch digital Driver Information Center. Its work-focused configuration emphasizes practical capability while maintaining a contemporary digital environment and comprehensive standard safety equipment. LT introduces remote start, keyless entry, an EZ Lift and Lower tailgate, and StowFlex® tailgate storage. The integrated storage compartment accommodates smaller tools and equipment without occupying valuable cabin space, adding versatility to its more comfort-oriented specification. Trail Boss emphasizes off-road capability with standard 4WD, a factory 2-inch suspension lift, 32-inch all-terrain tires, wider fender flares, and a 2-speed transfer case. Its specialized equipment improves traction and clearance across gravel roads, uneven terrain, and challenging trails. Z71 combines trail-oriented engineering with upgraded exterior styling and interior appointments. Its more sophisticated cabin treatments complement the Colorado's rugged construction, creating a balance between passenger comfort and off-road versatility. ZR2 represents the lineup's most specialized off-road configuration, incorporating a factory 3-inch suspension lift, Multimatic® DSSV dampers, front and rear electronic locking differentials, and 33-inch mud-terrain tires. Available heated and ventilated leather seating introduces premium comfort to its technically advanced specification.

Every 2026 Colorado features a 2.7L TurboMax® turbocharged 4-cylinder engine generating 310 hp and 430 lbs. ft. of torque. An enhanced 8-speed automatic transmission manages the engine's substantial low-end output, providing responsive acceleration and controlled power delivery during hauling, towing, and low-speed off-road maneuvering. This powertrain remains consistent across all five trims.

Properly equipped Colorado models tow up to 7,700 lbs., accommodating recreational trailers, equipment, and substantial loads. Trail Boss employs its 2-inch suspension lift, 32-inch all-terrain tires, and 2-speed transfer case to improve performance beyond pavement. ZR2 advances capability through its 3-inch lift, Multimatic® DSSV dampers, locking front and rear differentials, and 33-inch mud-terrain tires. Five selectable drive modes, including Baja mode for loose and sandy terrain, allow drivers to adjust vehicle responses to changing conditions.

The Colorado's cabin progresses from durable, work-oriented materials in WT to more sophisticated finishes in upper trims. Available heated and ventilated leather front seats enhance ZR2's passenger accommodations, while Adrenaline Red accents distinguish select configurations. Under-seat compartments provide concealed storage for personal belongings and equipment. Available StowFlex® tailgate storage adds another dedicated compartment outside the passenger cabin, preserving interior space for occupants and travel essentials.

An 11.3-inch center touchscreen complements the standard 11-inch digital Driver Information Center, providing access to Google built-in, Apple CarPlay®, and Android Auto™ compatibility. Available wireless charging supports convenient smartphone connectivity. Up to 10 available camera views provide perspectives around and beneath the pickup, assisting with parking, trail navigation, and maneuvering. An integrated trailering app places essential towing information within the vehicle interface.

Standard Chevy Safety Assist includes Forward Collision Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Following Distance Indicator, and IntelliBeam® automatic high beams. These technologies support driver awareness during travel through Chaska, surrounding communities, and Minnesota highways.
