Capability
The midsize Colorado has some serious towing power. When properly equipped and powered by the available, fuel-efficient Duramax 2.8-liter Turbo-Diesel engine, it can tow a maximum weight of 7,700 pounds and keep your journeys on track with an EPA-estimated fuel efficiency rating of 30 mpg on the highway (a best-in-class stat) and 20 mpg in the city.
Powertrains
Other powertrains include the 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine rated at 200 horsepower and 191 lb-ft of torque. When properly equipped and powered by this engine, the Colorado can tow 3,500 pounds. The available 3.6-liter DOHC V6 returns a best-in-class horsepower rating of 308 and nets 275 lb-ft of torque. Properly equip a Colorado with the V6 to achieve 7,000 pounds of towing capability.

The Chevrolet Infotainment 3 System transforms every drive into a well-connected and entertaining adventure on the road whether you’re heading to the store, work or out of town. It features available smartphone integration via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and an available 4G LTE Wi-Fi Hotspot to protect data and help keep your passengers entertained.
