About the 2026 Chevrolet Colorado

The 2026 Colorado is Chevrolet's midsize pickup, sold only as a crew cab with a 5-foot bed and seating for five. Six trims run from the $32,400 Work Truck to the $50,700 ZR2 before destination, and every one of them uses the same 2.7L TurboMax turbocharged four-cylinder making 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque through an 8-speed automatic. Every 2026 Colorado trim has the same engine and power output. Properly equipped, a crew cab tows 7,700 lbs. An 11.3-inch touchscreen with Google built-in is standard on every trim, including the Work Truck, which is unusual at this end of the segment and a real reason to look at the cheaper trims seriously.

Colorado trim selection centers on the suspension and traction hardware suited to your driving, alongside the carrying and towing requirements of the specific truck. The trims that matter most around Garland County, and for the Malvern, Arkadelphia and Benton drivers who make the run down, are the Trail Boss, which adds a 2-inch lift, 32-inch all-terrain tires and low range for the buyer who leaves pavement, and the ZR2 above it, which adds Multimatic DSSV dampers, front and rear locking differentials and 10.7 inches of ground clearance. Worth knowing before you shop: a properly equipped ZR2 crew cab is rated at 6,000 lbs rather than 7,700, so the trail truck and the trailer truck are not the same truck.

Start here. If you are measuring the truck against a garage or a trailer, go to specs or towing. If you want to know what the ZR2 buys over a Trail Boss, the off-road page compares them directly. If you have one specific question, the FAQ page answers thirty-nine of them.

See the 2026 Colorado at Allen Tillery

For a Colorado conversation at Allen Tillery Auto Chevrolet, use 501-881-4274 or visit the showroom at 4573 Central Ave in Hot Springs, AR 71913. We have sold trucks from this lot since 1967, an easy run up Highway 270 from Malvern or down Interstate 30 from Little Rock.

Trail Boss deserves a close look if you want the Colorado's factory lift and all-terrain tire setup for mixed pavement and gravel use. Lake season stretches from spring through October, so trailer traffic on the two-lanes out to Lake Hamilton is a months-long condition rather than a holiday-weekend one, and that shapes which truck actually suits a weekend around here more than any spec does. We offer financing pre-approval and a trade appraisal for Colorado shoppers. See current Colorado inventory .
