Colorado ZR2 is Four Wheeler’s ‘2018 Pickup Truck of the Year’
The ZR2 is effectively a segment of one, combining the nimbleness and maneuverability of a midsize pickup with a host of new off-road features and the most off-road technology of any vehicle in its segment.
‘Chevrolet has a track record of success developing performance variants for Corvette & Camaro. ZR2 takes this philosophy and applies it to Colorado.’
Compared to a standard Colorado, the ZR2 features a 3.5-inch wider track and a suspension lifted by 2 inches. Functional rocker protection has been added for better performance over rocks and obstacles, and the front and rear bumpers were modified for better off-road clearance.
Class-exclusive features include front and rear electronic locking differentials, an available diesel engine and the first off-road application of Multimatic Dynamic Suspensions Spool Valve damper technology.
As a result, the Colorado ZR2 offers solid performance in a variety of scenarios, from technical rock crawling to tight two-track trails to high-speed desert running to daily driving.
