MT. PLEASANT, Mich.––If you're looking for more performance and better fuel economy in a pickup truck, you'll want to pay attention to the Chevy Colorado. This truck has only been on the market since 2015, but is aimed to make significant gains in its second year with better engine offerings. The midsize Chevrolet Colorado 8-speed V6 will be available later this year in goals of "reigniting" the midsize segment.
“Customers made the Colorado an overnight success and it remains one of the industry’s hottest-selling products,” said Anita Burke, Colorado chief engineer. “That fast success has justified our continued investment in midsize pickups, introducing new features for our customers such as the class-exclusive diesel engine, advanced technologies like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and now a class-leading V-6 and eight-speed automatic powertrain combination.”
The 2017 Chevrolet Colorado is an improvement on the already most fuel efficient truck in America (diesel). The wider gear ratio in the new 8-speed transmission allows drivers to feel more confident in taking off with a heavy load in the bed or a heavy trailer behind, and reduced engine rpm on the highway for better fuel efficiency.
Drivers will experience better pick-up when accelerating, and a more consistently smooth driving feel. For situations like passing a vehicle on the highway or towing a trailer up a steep hill, the Colorado provides confidence thanks to the new engine and transmission. Chevrolet hopes this advanced engine offering will boost Colorado sales to meet their 160,000 unit/24 month goal, and reigniting the midsize segment
The midsize Chevrolet Colorado 8-speed V6 will be available later this year, projected to be at dealerships in the fourth quarter of this year.
