2015 Chevrolet Colorado Video Road Test - The Car Connection

Until this year, the mid-size pickup market was almost completely stagnant for the better part of a decade. Now, GM is shaking things up with a pair of new mid-size trucks--the GMC Canyon and this, the new 2015 Colorado. CHECK OUT: The Car Connection's Best Trucks To Buy 2015. Compared to the full-size Chevrolet Silverado, the Colorado has a less squared-off, more global look. Yes, it's a truck, but the slim grille, boxed-out fenders, and rising shoulder line aren't as traditional as the Canyon. Inside the Colorado you’ll find a closer kinship with the Silverado. Those trucks feel positively antique compared to this. Fit and finish is top notch. The Colorado is available in a choice of extended-cab and crew-cab models, with a five- or a six-foot bed on the crew cab. While the extended cabs aren’t good for more than hauling kids around--even then it’s tight--the crew cab is better suited for four people. It’s definitely configured for day-in, day-out use. Under the hood of the Colorado you’ll find either a 2. 5-liter four-cylinder rated at 200 horsepower, our our testers' 3. 6-liter V-6, rated at 305 horsepower. Source: www.thecarconnection.com
