Is the 2023 Colorado the new generation or the previous platform?
The 2023 Chevrolet Colorado is the very first model year of the all-new third generation, launched on the new Global B platform. It is a complete redesign: body, chassis, powertrains, and technology are all new. The turbocharged 2.7L four-cylinder replaces the previous V6 3.6L, delivering more low-end torque — up to 430 lb-ft in ZR2 specification. The interior was entirely redesigned with an 11.3-inch touchscreen and integrated Google Built-In. In Canada, the 2023 Colorado is available in WT, LT, Z71, Trail Boss, and ZR2 trims in crew cab or extended cab configurations. It is a significant repositioning in the midsize truck segment, competing directly with the Ford Ranger and Toyota Tacoma with a focus on technology, performance, and off-road capability.
