Which Chevy Colorado Engine is Right for You?

We may not have complete information on the Chevy Colorado gas mileage, but we can show you the other relevant specs for all three of your engine options. Take a closer look at your options to figure out which powertrain is right for you:

  • Base 2.7L Turbo-4: 237 hp & 260 lb-ft of torque (Standard on WT, LT)
  • 2.7L Turbo-4 Plus: 310 hp and 391 lb-ft of torque (Standard on Trail Boss, Z71)
