Comparing Used Colorado Model Years

One of the most important distinctions when shopping for a recent used Colorado is the redesign that arrived for the 2023 model year. A 2021 or 2022 Colorado belongs to the previous generation, while 2023 and newer trucks use the redesigned platform.

Previous-generation Colorados offered greater variety in powertrains and body configurations, including four-cylinder, V6, and Duramax diesel engines along with Extended Cab and Crew Cab choices. That can make these trucks particularly interesting to used buyers looking for an engine or configuration Chevrolet no longer offers.

The redesigned 2023 Colorado moved to a Crew Cab Short Box configuration and a family of 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engines. It also introduced a more technology-focused cabin with an 11.3-inch center touchscreen and established the WT, LT, Trail Boss, Z71, and ZR2 trim structure used by the third-generation truck.

Used Chevrolet Colorado Engine Options

Engine availability is another reason to pay close attention to the model year when comparing used Colorado trucks. Recent pre-owned inventory can span several substantially different powertrains.

2.5L Four-Cylinder: Available on select previous-generation Colorado models, this engine can appeal to buyers looking for a more straightforward truck for commuting, lighter-duty hauling, and everyday pickup use.

3.6L V6: The available V6 produced 308 horsepower on later second-generation Colorado models. Properly equipped 2022 trucks with the V6 and Trailering Package were rated to tow up to 7,000 pounds.

2.8L Duramax Turbo-Diesel: Offered through the 2022 model year, the available Duramax produced 369 lb-ft of torque and allowed qualifying Colorado configurations to tow up to 7,700 pounds. Because Chevrolet discontinued this engine with the 2023 redesign, the diesel is now a used-market-only option.

2.7L Turbocharged Four-Cylinder: Chevrolet introduced its new turbocharged engine family with the redesigned 2023 Colorado. Early third-generation trucks were offered with multiple outputs, while later models transitioned to the higher-output TurboMax configuration. Properly equipped newer Colorado trucks can tow up to 7,700 pounds.

Which Used Colorado Trim Fits Your Needs?

Colorado trims can vary significantly by model year, so think about how you plan to use the truck before focusing on a particular badge. WT and LT models generally provide practical starting points for commuting, work, hauling, and everyday truck duties.

Trail Boss and Z71 models place greater emphasis on capability and off-pavement driving. Equipment varies by generation, but these trims can add features such as four-wheel drive, all-terrain tires, specialized suspension equipment, drive modes, and other capability-focused hardware.

ZR2 models sit at the more specialized end of the Colorado lineup. Recent versions include equipment such as Multimatic DSSV dampers, additional ground clearance, more aggressive tires, and off-road-focused chassis tuning. If you are considering a ZR2, compare its specialized hardware against how much trail and off-road driving you actually expect to do.

Used Colorado 4WD and Off-Road Capability

Four-wheel drive is available across many used Chevrolet Colorado model years and configurations. It can be especially relevant for Utah drivers who regularly encounter winter weather, unpaved roads, trailheads, recreation areas, or changing road conditions.

If off-road capability is a priority, pay particular attention to Trail Boss, Z71, and ZR2 models. The exact equipment varies by generation and model year, so verify the drivetrain, tires, suspension, locking differential equipment, ground clearance, and drive modes of the individual truck rather than relying only on the trim name.

Towing With a Used Chevrolet Colorado

A properly configured Chevrolet Colorado can provide substantial towing capability for a midsize pickup, but the maximum rating has not been identical across every model year, engine, trim, or drivetrain.

For example, qualifying 2022 Duramax diesel Colorado configurations were rated for up to 7,700 pounds, while properly equipped 3.6L V6 models were rated up to 7,000 pounds. Select redesigned Colorados with the 2.7L turbo engine can also reach a 7,700-pound maximum rating.

Always verify the capability of the exact truck before towing. Engine, drivetrain, cab, bed, trim, trailering equipment, payload, passengers, and cargo can all affect how much an individual used Colorado is rated to handle.

Used Colorado or New Colorado?

Shopping used gives you access to Colorado configurations that are no longer available new, including V6 and Duramax diesel trucks, while also giving you more model years and price points to compare. A late-model pre-owned Colorado may also provide much of the technology and capability of a current truck at a different purchase price.

If you are deciding between pre-owned and current-model options, compare the inventory above with our new Chevrolet Colorado inventory. Looking at both can help you evaluate differences in mileage, warranty coverage, equipment, powertrain, technology, and overall purchase price.

Financing and Trading Toward a Used Colorado

Used Colorado pricing can vary considerably based on model year, mileage, engine, drivetrain, trim, condition, and installed equipment. Comparing those factors alongside your financing terms provides a more complete picture than looking at monthly payment alone.

You can apply for financing online as you compare available trucks. If you are replacing a current vehicle, Sky Chevrolet can also evaluate your car, truck, or SUV as part of your purchase or as a separate sale.

Test-Drive a Used Chevrolet Colorado in Provo

Because used Colorado trucks can vary substantially by generation and configuration, a test drive is particularly useful. Compare visibility, ride quality, cab space, bed access, acceleration, braking, technology, and the overall condition of each truck you are considering.
