ENGINE PERFORMANCE & CAPABILITY

---

This year, the Colorado has once again brought back a variety of different engines for you to choose from. Depending on the power and force you want behind each press of the gas pedal, you can choose between the following:

• 2.5L 4-cylinder engine: 200 horsepower, 191 lb-ft of torque
• 2.8L Duramax® turbo-diesel 4-cylinder engine: 181 horsepower, 369 lb-ft of torque
• 3.6L DOHC V6 engine: 308 horsepower, 275 lb-ft of torque

Clearly, you’re getting plenty of power, no matter the engine you choose. Alongside those engine options, you’ll also have the choice between a 6- or 8-speed automatic transmission for smooth and precise handling at the wheel.

In a pickup truck like the Chevy Colorado, you’re probably looking forward to impressive towing capabilities. Well, this year’s model doesn’t disappoint, with up to 7,700 pounds of available towing power. So, whether you’re hooking up a trailer for your upcoming move or the family boat for a weekend getaway up North, the properly-equipped Colorado has you covered.

This year’s Colorado also provides over 2,000 pounds of available payload capacity—a fairly significant upgrade from the 1,550-pound capacity of the 2021 model.

COLORADO INTERIOR: A HOME AWAY FROM HOME

---

The Colorado may be well known for its rugged performance and power, but that doesn’t mean it can’t provide comfort and convenience inside. In fact, the 2022 Chevy Colorado showcases an incredibly stylish and advanced interior to serve as your home away from home, or maybe even as your mobile office.

As you drive, you’ll love the added comfort provided by the power-adjustable front seats, heated seats and steering wheel, and automatic climate control. All allow you to customize the feel of your interior. After you’ve settled in, you can begin to focus on all the ways you can connect inside the Colorado.

For that, you’re well taken care of. Through an 8-inch diagonal HD color touchscreen, you can access it all, including standard and available features like:

• Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™
• Voice recognition and in-vehicle apps
• Bluetooth® technology
• Bose® premium audio system
• Integrated navigation

If you’re taking your Colorado on the job, it can easily serve as your office. With a built-in 4G LTE Wi-Fi® hotspot and available wireless charging, you’ll never need to worry about fielding a phone call, or getting some work done from your laptop.

WITH POWER COMES PEACE OF MIND

In the 2022 Chevy Colorado, you’re certainly wielding plenty of power. So, naturally, it comes loaded with plenty of safety and driver-assistance features to help you keep everyone protected.

Most of the more important safety features will be those that lend a hand in more rugged or uncertain road conditions, such as:

• StabiliTrak®—Electronic Stability Control with Traction Control
• Tire pressure monitoring system
• Daytime running lamps
• Reinforced safety cage
• HD Rear Vision Camera

You’ll also have plenty of driver-assistance features at your disposal to help you take on long stretches of road. These include intuitive systems like Forward Collision Alert and Lane Departure Warning.

If you’re entrusting the power of the Colorado to the youngest driver in your family, it helps you out even further with its standard Teen Driver technology. With it, you can limit, customize, and restrict certain features, as well as see an in-vehicle report card to monitor their driving habits.
