I'm a huge GM trucks fan, we have a Colorado and Silverado at home, and we love them. With this new gen, it boosts up even more my love for Chevy. The Trail Boss is the one i would get.
I'll have a Trail Boss First Drive out next week!
sounds like a dream team! i’m biased to toyota trucks, but gm would definitly be a second choice if i needed something that tows more than the tundra (no heavy duty option)
@@dazednconfusedrn only issue with GM trucks is the history of electrical problems and slipping transmissions. Not to mention the lifter issues on 5.3’s.
@@charlesrodriguez7984 my auntys 06 speaks otherwise. it’s a great truck, all gm trucks are?, but i would never buy one. lease? sure but never buy
Ah I thought you had an f150
This new Colorado looks way better than anything else in it's class in my opinion. I feel like it's been a while but GM finally did something right when it comes to a truck. Only problem is what they are selling for is pretty high.
How do you figure. Nissan frontier is high 30s
Looks way better than the current Colorado. But still out of most of our price ranges
U right about that Sr.
I got the Silverado custom 2.7 310 hp/430 lbs torque. Didn't know there was a version of this engine in the Colorado. Very nice!
Must say, GM is on a roll with these all new models.
In regards to the transmission hunting for a moment when you floored it on the HWY that is pretty normal when you have a vehicle/transmission that adapts to the driver over time. The adaption is pretty aggressive early on as well. This vehicle/transmission is dealing with many different drivers and is early in adaption. I'm not a fan of the current gen Colorado/Canyon but this new gen really has my attention. Torque is king and all power levels have more torque than HP down low and that is important. Great review.
Yup very similar to the 2019 Ranger when it first came out. All the reviewers criticized the 10 speed, but actual owners love it. Apparently most new transmissions take a few thousand miles to “learn” exactly how you drive and react accordingly. It’s an interesting concept, but makes sense considering how complex vehicles are these days.
I'll drive just about any vehicle Chevy is making these days. I love their trucks!
Me too! 😀
I'm digging the new design!
My first-ever vehicle was a 2008 Chevy Colorado and has been mine for 11 years now. never had it at a mechanic shop I did the maintenance myself looks and drives like it did. Im going Chevy again
I've pulled up next to Both a Ranger and a Colorado in my Dakota. Roughly same length, but defiantly not same height. Majority being 4x4s on 18" wheels They look more Full size circa 2000s than they do "midsize" circa 2000s. Now a Maverick, thats smaller than my Dakota. Reason why the Midsize market fizzeled was due to them costing the same as a full size with the same MPG. Now they're 2/3 the price and get slightly better MPG. Though by 2/3s I mean $40k vs 70k lol
Midsize trucks are now big enough to be a family's single vehicle!
@@MilesPerHr Yep and the Ram 1500 my parents have you can have a dance party in the back and looking out the window level with my dads 3500 4x4 dually lol
YES 🎯🎯🎯 this is it. Back then say 10-15 years ago this was the case. You could get a smaller truck v6 but why? When then you could go full size and get roughly 1-3 mpg less vs the mid size and definitely costed near the same then. Couple thousand more. Now there’s a definite difference in cost and gas usage when you opt for the mid size trucks.
So far, it’s got the best looking exterior of all the next gen midsize trucks imo. Interior looks good too, although I personally do like the iPad-esque screen in the ROW 6G, that still retains knobs for HVAC and volume.
yea idk man i dislike frontiers by a good margin but this is definitely not as good looking as the frontier...
@@declanrobinson1055 its way better than the frontier and the canyon beats them both by a mile... I think i like canyon even better than ranger raptor.
@@hewster1 that may be true but the canyon and colorado don't look even remotely as good as their competitors I think they look liked they got their face smashed in an some chevy designer said ooooooo and called it a day. the tacoma, frontier and ranger look miles better than any GM manufactured truck by miles.
@Declan Robinson I very very much so disagree. The Colorado is meh but the canyon is awesome. Tacoma front end is meh. Range looks like a basic truck (ranger raptor is a different story)
This truck is a real game changer in the mid size truck segment
I'm glad they actually made it look like a normal truck this time
You and Acceler8 have by far the best 2 reviews of the new Colorado. Believe me Ive watched them all. Top notch work man
Never had a pick up in my life. Considering this, looks awesome!
Can't wait till the truck goes through a tow test to see how the 4 cylinder turbo works, how the MPGs breakout, and if the engine can handle operating at higher temps while towing extended periods of time.
I have the last model and like it but I love this upgrade so ordered itro yellow z71 a few weeks ago with pretty much all the optional stuff
As a very satisfied current owner of a 2019 crew cab 4x4 V6, WT short bed I feel the new truck looks better and has some great features. However you mentioned the 4 WD control in what you said was an LT. But if you go on line to build your own, the WT and LT do not have a two speed transfer case available at all. Also your able to get the HO version tune at the dealer for under $400! The lowest trim for that is Trail Boss. I’m sure, that like in mine, if I engage Tow/Haul mode, there’s very little hesitation in the trans downshift.
I just bought a z71 Colorado in Nitro Yellow. A friend of mine bought a Canyon Denali new in 21 and that gave me the fever. Both are fantastic trucks and both look and function amazing!
Ordered a Z71 version of the new Colorado last week. Opted to pay the extra $400 for the high output tune. Can't wait for it to come in!
I currently have a 21 work truck, and I've got a 23 Trail Boss on the way. This video has got me excited
Nice new upgrades from Chevy on the Colorado. I just bought a 2022 ZR2 and I love it, but there are many features I am glad they have improved. Thanks for the video! 👍
I just bought a '22 ZR2 as well. I LOVE it but I kind of feel like I should have waited. The camera system alone makes it worth it. I also love the Keyless ignition. I need to stop watching these videos. LOL
looks wayyy better
How the Colorado badge almost at the level of the door handle was approved, baffles me.
Thanks for the driving review. I'm still waiting to order mine until I get to sit in one to be sure. I thought you were about to say we're not going to test the top speed since it's rush hour lol.
Nice truck! I think it's the best mid-size you can buy.
I think these trucks look great! My only exception is the placement of the Colorado name badge on the front doors. They are placed awkwardly high on the door, like a 3 year old slapped them on as an afterthought.
easy fix, just remove them lol. but i 100% agree, these new 2023's look awesome.
Gonna buy one this summer! Love it!
Good improvements over last generation. One negative impression is the cost cutting squarish instrument display not filling out the available space. I do miss my 2018 Canyon with the 2.8L diesel, I needed to move up to a 1500 to tow a bigger camper.
the new colorado with the uprated engine can tow 7700
By the way, the Colorado/ Canyons have never had a gasoline turbo option until this year, with the 2.7. It was a 2.5 N/A 4 cyl, a 2.8 Turbo diesel DuraMax, and the 3.6 V6
And the older bodystyle had a 3.7 l5, and later rare models got the 5.3l Vortec V8
You may have missed the card that corrected the "turbo" note from the preview generation.
@@MilesPerHr I'm watching from my phone so it didn't show me. Thanks
Thanks for doing this walkaround with slow an easy camera movements. I watched another big TH-camr do a walk around and his camera movements were too sporadic and fast to really get a good look at the truck exterior.
Glad it was helpful!
Such a good-looking car imo although I just wish the prices were lower and that they kept the NA v6, this is coming from a 2018 zr2 owner my car was $42k out of the dealership and these new zr2s MSRP costing $48k is honestly absurd, and the new turbo 4 cyl is cool and all but in all honesty I would easily pick a NA v6 over it any day just for the potential it does have if you are willing to mod it.
2.7 is far superior in power, and towing, performance.
@@calebniederhofer6529 yea but reliability... No.
Forced induction gas engines wear out much quicker than NA, proven by the fact that the oil industry had to create a whole new oil (GF6) to cope with the heat and rpm of the turbos.
@@vettle1 Do you own one? I own a 2019 EB 2.7, and zero issues at a 100k. I would argue it is more reliable then GM current 5.3 and 6.2 with the lifter issues,, etc. You are making a uneducated comment about a topic, that you really don’t understand. GM has not had issues with there 2.7 either, other then the transmission issues. Because something has turbos, does not make it unreliable. Ships, trains, aircraft all use turbos. My 2.7 has a composite block, similar to the Fords 6.7 diesel. Ford is superior in reliability, design, performance though in the EB motors. GM 2.7 lacks dual port injection, and being a 4 cylinder motor is limited. It also has carbon build up, although that can be cleaned every 60k.
@@vettle1 People make that argument, and it usually based off some dumb Scotty Kilmore video. Technology has improved, and the internals of my 2.7 is built stronger, and probably the best motor, that I have ever owned. I have had built diesels, 5.3 GM.
Looks like a Tacoma from the side. Like the new look. Chevy is getting smarter.
It doesn’t. Toyota gets zero credit for this redesign, thanks for watching though.
Nothing like a Tacoma if it did I would not have ordered mine.
I really wish Chevy would use this platform and make a truck based suv to compete with the Bronco.
I would like to see how the HO turbo engine pulls a trailer up hill. I have a 2016 with the V6 and don't like going up hill at 6000 rpm pulling a 5000 Ib TT. Thanks for sharing.
Love ford but really digging the style of the Colorado
Did you say Google built in the entertainment center this must be the 2023 introduction that Google was talking about seven weeks ago in a article I saw.
Yep!
This looks way better than a ranger. And now I would say it looks just as cool as a Tacoma on the outside. the inside is way better than a Tacoma
I can’t believe people are paying these prices for a midsize truck. They have to be bankrupting themselves for a truck with features they don’t need for a price they cannot afford. It’s supposed to be a mid sized truck not a luxury vehicle. The price as shown is more than the average yearly income in the U.S. Insanity
This is why I’m keeping my 2016 Silverado WT for a few more years. Good full sized truck, no payment, and still looks great for its age. A truck is a truck.
Chevy forever.
these things are great perfect truck for most truck buyers a bit more truck than a mavrick but not yet a full size good bridge between
It can really be a do-it-all vehicle for many people, I agree
How is the LT model $46,000? That would mean the Z 71 would have to be mid 50s and ZR2 in the 60s. Even though they keep telling us it’s a lot less than that I can’t see how.
In Canada I just priced a Z71 and ZR2 both with some packages but not loaded to the gunnles. Z71 was $55+k and ZR2 was $61+k Canadian dollars
The Z71 with similar options is actually only $1200 more than this LT. Zr2 starts low $50s. You should build and price them online, you might be surprised…
I may consider buying a Colorado or a Canyon
I ordered a zr2 Colorado
Nice ! 😁
Wish my CarPlay was full screen in my Silverado refresh
Really digging this refresh for both GM trucks. That 2.7 has some power I’ve seen silverados burnout. When can we expect a Canyon review?
When they do a First Drive event in the Canyon, I'll make a video!
I remember this was a 4 & 5 cylinder engine yrs ago
I’m definitely going to get me one even though I have a 2022 canyon.
Ordered a new 2023 Colorado z71
Good looking truck…I would like to see how it stacks up against the new Frontier with the V6.
Great review, nice truck!
Odd that the rear bumper is body color on this like Canyon where the rest of the Collorados are black.
Where was this video recorded ?
I was admiring the view and wondering where.
It's a new engine to match the Colorado, not the Silverado, accelerates pretty fast, has the right power-to-weight ratio
Its the exact same engine that's been in the Silverado since 2019
I’ve tested my 22’ Canyon 2WD with the 3.6l v6 0-60 on multiple occasions in dry conditions, and my best times are in the 6.2 to 6.5 second range. I’m willing to bet the 2WD version of the mid-range and high output trim levels of this truck would post just as good if not better numbers. The 4x4’s are HEAVY, and I think they’re even heavier than the last gen.
There is only a couple hundered pounds added with 4x4. The new gen truck is heavier than the previous gen due to only being made as a crew cab.
@@troyg3439 That’s not why they’re heavier. There’s a whole lot more to it than just being a crew cab. The wheel base is longer than the previous generation, torsional rigidity has been increased which requires more metal, and there’s just more of everything. And the 4x4s actually put on an additional 350-400 lbs, depending on trim level.
Excellent car review! 👍
Glad you liked it!
I almost wish I didn't buy the 2021 and waited for this!
Very thorough review that gives a lot of useful information. I'm not sold on it because too many things are an option making it overpriced.
Please review volvo s90!
Looks really good, but did he say first in bed storage? Must have meant first truck to do tailgate storage because the Ridgeline has had the in bed storage forever
My colorado is coming with a 220 amp generator. What exactly is the generator used for
Im a huge ford fan but with this new colorado. If ford doesn’t step up in the next model. Then i will possibly switch in my SUV for one. As i have been in the market for a midsize truck for a while.
Why was it called Crew Cab when it is just tad bigger than a quad cab?
Crew Cab, as I understand it, is the size you see in full size 1500s.
I'm worried about this 2nd gen 8 speed transmission. The 1st gen has some issues and its still really clunky.
0:00 it looks like it's got a MoTeC dash as standard lol
well i was considering trading my 2020 z71 crew cab for gen 3 but basicly only upgrade i see is infortanment center an cluster an a little different look on outdide an i can bet the 4cyl not gona handle towing like my v6 or diesals will
Great video, will you be test driving the new 2023 Colorado ZR2 🤔
What a beautful truck!
I’d go Frontier reliability, normally aspirated V6 and that truck in Pro4X trim is super smooth. The nine speed auto in the Frontier is second to none.
A lot of people don’t want to drive a Japanese brand truck
@@Encourageable yup and a lot of people do. Taco best selling mid size truck what 20 years straight? I personally like the superior reliability. I just picked up my PRO4X. Drives awesome.
Taco now made inn Mexico
1 out of 10/ gm10/tacoma 8/Ranger 7
Love the new look thinking in on chevy colorado zR2
I have a 2016 with the diesel. I like the body style and the interior upgrades but wouldn’t trade my diesel for this turbo 4.
Sharp looking truck and definitely better looking then the Ranger and Tacoma. From what I’m seeing with the updated Ranger and Tacoma the Colorado will still be better looking.
does that truck have adaptive cruise control?
Very nice review. as you stated there are no fuel economy ratings. but everybody wants to know what your fuel economy was on your test drive?
Unfortunately, I didn't keep track during my brief time behind the wheel - sorry about that.
I think this truck will a Manual trans would be pretty fun
Loved the video! I know it was an LT, but what packages did the truck that you test drove have?
To get to $46k, you have to basically add every option on the LT. You can get a modestly equipped LT for $40k or so.
I’m hanging right on the fence about pulling the trigger on one of these new Colorados. I’m gonna wait around to see what Toyota upgrades first. They’re in desperate need of an overhaul in both interior and engine as well. From what I’ve heard the new gen Tacoma is gonna have a turbo engine as well. It’s hard for me not to go ahead and get a colorado though. Really solid redesign!
Same here! The Tacoma better be worth the wait
Should go with the Canyon with the high output 2.7 then.
I own a Toyota Tundra, but I think that the Tacoma is overpriced.
@@oceanhedonist265 I agree. They rely on that Toyota name to sell them for more than they’re worth imo
GM will flash the mid-level 2.7L to get the high output numbers for a few hundred bucks.
Can you shut off the safety stuff like steer assist and cross traffic alert? I hate that stuff
Hurray
For the built-in Google maps to work, I guess you need internet subscription?
I believe it’s $20 a month or something like that. But you get the first 3 months for free. Honestly, just use apple carplay or android auto. There’s no real advantage of the google built in system.
How's the ride? Bumpy?
what's the 0-60 time for the base model?
How are there still incandescent lights on $40k+ vehicles still? All lights should be led
It looks like a mini Silverado which I like. I do wish that it had better reliability but being made by GM and it being new only time will tell.
When are auto makers going to realize that incandescent lights cheapen the brand image of their vehicles more than the few extra cents that LEDs would cost?
I really want to see you drive a GMC Canyon New Gen
How does this compare driving to the frontier sv?
Very very beautiful looking truck, same with the Toyota Tacoma.
Exterior looks decent. Wonder what the point of the large gauge cluster screen is if the gauges don't even fill it. That to me looks terrible.
The LT comes with the heated steering wheel?? Sold!
Best looking midsize on the market! Why are you even asking?
What's the fuel efficiency?
19 city 25 highway
Really not a fan of that square screen where the gauge cluster goes. Either make the screen the same shape as the shroud, or put real gauges on the side and a smaller screen in the middle! The square screen surrounded by black space outlined by the shroud looks unrefined.
the new tacom- i mean colorado looks nice. that front end looks oddly familiar though.
Man silverado looks good/different unlike f150 same design from like 2014
I wish they offered it in just the standard v6. I'm switching from my Ford ranger to the 2022 vr2 just to get away from the 2.3 turbo.
Where are these trucks not in michigan yet
A very nice truck. I’m shocked!
How are heated seats available on the LT but not the Trail Boss. Honestly frustrating as the only trim I'm interested in is the Trail Boss but literally every vehicle I've had for years has had heated seats standard.
Trail Boss is based on the Work Truck. You can get pretty much the same Trail Boss kit in the Z71 to have more amenities. Would be nice to pick and choose options, though!
@MilesPerHr I mean fact us the TB sits above the LT in the product stack. Should have all the options the LT has available at the least. There's also no option to add the lift that the TB has to the z71. Even if there was it's far more expensive initially and you get a painted bumper and no lift. Also no available suspension upgrade. On silverado trail boss all these things are options.
I hope she comes to Brazil, here the toyota hilux dominates
