2023 Chevrolet Colorado

Chevrolet sells a wide range of sedans, coupes, compact SUVs, large SUVs, EVs, and pickup trucks. Most models have roomy interiors and come with standard safety and convenience technology. Several models, however, have poor visibility and lack steering agility. Many Chevrolets rank average or below average for reliability in CR’s rankings. The brand stands out for selling historically significant and category-defining vehicles. The Suburban and Tahoe can keep three rows of passengers comfortable within their enormous cabins. The Silverado pickup truck competes with the best-selling Ford F-150 and Ram 1500 by balancing interior comfort with towing and cargo capability. In the past and today, the Camaro and Corvette are performance car bargains. The rear/mid-engined “C8” Corvette can be as thrilling as much more expensive European supercars. With some exceptions, used Chevrolets can have reliability issues, but are often less expensive to maintain and repair than competitors.

Looking much like the full-sized Silverado, the redesigned midsized Colorado pickup truck comes only in a crew-cab, short-bed configuration with a turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 237 or 310 hp, and an eight-speed automatic. The 310 hp variant of the engine became standard for 2025. There is a choice of rear- or four-wheel drive. Competing directly with the Ford Ranger, the line has three trims (out of five) that are offered strictly in 4WD, each with a rising level of capability. Every Colorado features an 11-inch infotainment screen, with related apps for off-roading and trailering. AEB with pedestrian detection and AEB highway are standard, but BSW and RCTW were optional until they became standard for the 2025 model year.
