So many different vehicles here at the Mid-Missouri Powerhouse have chosen this amazing spring season to reveal their fresh looks, and we are thrilled that the 2023 Chevy Colorado LT is one of them! It’s coming soon and not quite here yet, but the Motorbiscuit.com staff had a great feature on their blog about its attractive makeover and what exactly to expect. The spy shots they provided had the truck heavily covered in camo per usual, but the adept reporting team still had a few reliable clues to go with.
The new Colorado LT features a more confident front end with new LED headlights and potentially modern projector beam bulbs that give them a more advanced look. The lights have a horizontal layout with LEDs at the top, and there are new lighting elements stretched across the top of the grille along with a set of round fog lamps that are sitting lower in the front bumper. It appears to also ride on brand-new 18-inch wheels with black machining, and a unique 12-spoke design ideally wrapped in Goodyear tires.
Everything seen here leads to the premise that this incoming Colorado is going to appear much sleeker, and will also ride on the 31XX-2 platform. Many customers that loved the existing Colorado and how it could be positioned well in a tight spot will appreciate just how it provides a sportier ride with a bit more calculated and smoother driving manners on pavement. The most reliable rumors have claimed that the Colorado will also see a new contender in the form of an awesome and spry powertrain, as the 310 horsepower and 420 lb-ft of torque will be provided courtesy of a turbocharged 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder engine.
You can also choose to fully embrace the calling of raw power and primo punch off the line, and go for the 3.6-liter V6 engine that doles out 308 hp and 275 lb-ft of torque. The current years’ model here at the Powerhouse sports a very smooth ride, attractive diesel option, and trim for every possible need. All the variants range from the very basic work truck to off-road ready ZR2 models that provide the utmost toughest choice for anyone who wants to blow haphazardly through dunes or handle rut-rich and boulder-laden terrain.
With the ideal blend of top-notch road manners and necessary function of daily usability, the Chevy Colorado has laid its claim solidly as one of the best midsize trucks on the market. Smaller and easier to handle always comes with benefits, and it’s not just when trying to snag a parking spot in the tightly-wrapped confines of an urban big-box parking lot. The multimedia system features a 7.0-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, a six-speaker premium audio system, and a 3.5-inch instrument cluster display. Enjoying “Truck of the Year” twice annually via our well-connected friends at Motor Trend, this is the truck you want to fully take charge of your spring “to do” list and provide the opportunity to offer you the best in well-honed off-or on-road navigation.
