Question 1

What are the features and versions of the 2022 Colorado available in Canada?

Accepted Answer

The 2022 Colorado is the second generation of Chevrolet's mid-size truck, available in Canada in WT, LT, Z71, and ZR2 trims, in Extended Cab and Crew Cab configurations. Two engines are offered: the 2.5L 4-cylinder producing 200 hp and the 3.6L V6 producing 308 hp. The 8-speed automatic pairs with the V6, while the 4-cylinder receives a 6-speed automatic. The 2022 Colorado is the penultimate year of this generation before the complete redesign in 2023. The ZR2 version offers Multimatic DSSV shock absorbers, a 51 mm suspension lift, front and rear Eaton electronic differentials, and BF Goodrich KO2 tires — ideal for off-road enthusiasts across Canada. Prices start at approximately $30,498 for the WT.

Question 2

What is the towing capacity of the 2022 Colorado and which engine should I choose for towing?

Accepted Answer

The 2022 Colorado with the 3.6L V6 and towing package can tow up to 3,946 kg (8,700 lb) in Crew Cab configuration with short box — enough for a recreational boat, a light travel trailer, or a snowmobile trailer. The 2.5L 4-cylinder is limited to approximately 1,587 kg (3,500 lb), making it inadequate for regular towing use. For a Canadian planning to tow a trailer to the lake or haul ATVs in British Columbia or Alberta, the V6 with towing package is the logical choice. Maximum payload is approximately 726 kg (1,600 lb). Always verify the certification plate on the B-pillar — capacities vary based on the exact configuration of your vehicle.

Question 3

Is the 2022 Colorado ZR2 suitable for serious off-road use in Canadian mountains and forests?

Accepted Answer

The 2022 Colorado ZR2 is one of the most capable mid-size off-road trucks available on the Canadian market. Its Multimatic DSSV shock absorbers offer longer travel and better control on rough terrain than standard shocks. The ARB electronic differentials (front and rear) allow selective traction on wheels losing grip. Ground clearance of 264 mm surpasses most of the competition. On forest trails in Quebec, Ontario, or British Columbia, the ZR2 easily handles ruts and rocky passages. However, its wheelbase remains that of a mid-size truck — less ideal than some dedicated trail SUVs for highly technical obstacles. Starting price around $56,498 CAD. For mixed daily use combining city driving and forest trails, it is an excellent compromise.
