The new Chevy Colorado is designed as a mid-sized pickup truck with the abilities of a classic pickup without the size. This four-door pickup comes with rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive, and it can seat up to five individuals comfortably.
The new Colorado has three available engines for Canandaigua, NY drivers. The first option is a four-cylinder engine with an automatic six-speed transmission. The second option is a 3.6-liter V-6 engine that can generate 308-hp, and it comes with an eight-speed automatic transmission. The third engine is a 2.8-liter four-cylinder diesel engine that can generate 369 lb.-ft. of torque. The new Colorado went from 0 to 60 mph in 6.1 seconds with the V-6 engine, the quickest time of the three tested engines.
The fuel economy varies quite a bit due to the multiple engines and transmissions included in the Colorado. The base four-cylinder engine gets 19 mpg city and 25 mpg on the highway. The V-6 engine gets 18 mpg city and 25 mpg on the highway. The diesel engine is the most efficient of the three in fuel efficiency, with 20 mpg city and 30 mpg on the highway.
You can also expect the gas mileage to vary depending on whether you are using rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive around Brighton, NY. Typically, rear-wheel drive will provide better gas mileage than all-wheel drive.
The safety features included in the new Chevy Colorado are:
The forward-collision warning feature utilizes sensors on the front of the Colorado to identify any objects that may be in front of your vehicle. If the sensors pick up an object, then a signal is sent to the internal computer of the Colorado. This signal is processed and alerts you of potential objects in front of your vehicle.
The lane-departure warning uses sensors on the side of the Colorado, and these sensors can determine the width of the current lane you are in. If you start to drift out of the lane, a signal will be sent to the internal computer, and the computer will send an alert to let you know that you are starting to leave your lane.
The rear parking sensors help identify any objects that may be directly behind your vehicle. The sensors will alert you of any objects by way of the internal computer, and this can come in handy when backing out of parking spaces.
The technology features in the Colorado include a seven-inch touchscreen in the base model with an 8-in. option in other trims. Also, there is a Wi-Fi hotspot, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Bluetooth audio streaming. These great features make driving the Colorado much more enjoyable, and it can make being a passenger much more fun.
There are four different trims for the new Chevy Colorado, which are:
Each trim has its own unique set of features, and each trim has its price point. The unique features and prices can help you identify which trim is best for your needs, and it helps you avoid buying any unnecessary features.
