Walk out to the entry-price Colorado on our lot and the screen in it is the same screen that is in the most expensive one. That is unusual enough to be worth leading with, because on most trucks in this segment the good display, the native navigation and half the driver aids are things you buy your way up to. Here they are fitted from the Work Truck onward: an 11.3-inch diagonal center touchscreen running Google built-in, an 11-inch diagonal digital driver information center, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the six-feature Chevy Safety Assist package.

Allen Tillery Auto Chevrolet is at 4573 Central Ave and the sales line is 501-881-4274.

2026 Colorado Infotainment and Connectivity

Two screens, both standard on all six trims: an 11.3-inch diagonal center touchscreen with Google built-in, and an 11-inch diagonal digital driver information center.

2026 Chevrolet Colorado

Google built-in is the part that matters. Google Maps and Google Assistant run natively in the truck rather than mirroring off a phone, so navigation and voice control work whether or not a phone is connected and whether or not it has signal in its pocket. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are also standard, so a buyer who prefers the phone's interface loses nothing.

Above the WT and Custom, the LT adds remote start with Keyless Open and Start and available wireless phone charging. In the bed, an available 120-volt outlet and cargo bed lighting appear higher in the lineup, and the ZR2 adds available underbody cameras, a segment first. Trim-by-trim detail is on the trims page.

Hands-Free Driving and the Colorado's Driver Assistance

The 2026 Colorado's driver assistance is a standard-equipment safety suite rather than a hands-free highway system. Super Cruise, Chevrolet's hands-free driving technology, is fitted to other Chevrolet models and is not part of the Colorado's equipment list.

That is worth stating plainly rather than leaving a buyer to infer it, because Super Cruise is heavily marketed across the brand and it is a reasonable thing to ask about in the showroom. What the Colorado gives you instead is the full Chevy Safety Assist package on every trim, standard blind spot detection, and standard lane departure warning and prevention. On a daily commute or a run through the Ouachita Mountains those are the systems doing the work.

Standard Driver Assistance Features

Six features come standard on every 2026 Colorado, packaged as Chevy Safety Assist. Blind spot detection and lane departure warning and prevention are standard as well.

  • Forward Collision Alert: warns of a developing collision with a vehicle ahead.
  • Automatic Emergency Braking: can apply the brakes if you do not.
  • Front Pedestrian Braking: detects and brakes for people in the path ahead.
  • Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning: warns and steers back toward the lane.
  • Following Distance Indicator: shows following gap in seconds on the driver display.
  • IntelliBeam auto high beams: switches high beams off for oncoming traffic.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration separately records electronic stability control, forward collision warning and lane departure warning as standard equipment on this vehicle. Chevrolet's own note applies to all of it: driver assistance features are no substitute for paying attention, and visibility, weather and road conditions affect how they perform.

Available Driver Assistance and Packages

Beyond the standard suite, the Colorado's additional aids are camera-based and concentrated on the off-road trims.

Multiple camera views are available, and on the ZR2 that extends to underbody cameras that show the terrain beneath the truck. The Trail Boss and Z71 carry four selectable drive modes with an off-road performance display; the ZR2 carries five, including a sand mode exclusive to it. Available wireless phone charging arrives at the LT.

Adaptive cruise control. If it is a requirement for you, call 501-881-4274 with a VIN and we will read that truck's build sheet with you.

Safety Equipment on Every Trim

Chevy Safety Assist is fitted to every 2026 Colorado, and so are blind spot detection and lane departure warning and prevention. Electronic stability control and forward collision warning are standard equipment as well.

That is the whole list, on the Work Truck and on the ZR2 alike. It is one of the clearest reasons to look hard at the lower trims: the safety equipment does not improve as you spend more, because there is nothing above it to buy.

Which Colorado Has the Technology You Want?

For most technology questions the answer is any of them, which is unusual. The screens, the phone integration and the safety suite do not change across the lineup.

Long humid summers put a real load on a small-displacement turbo engine's cooling and intake temperatures, which is a reason to care how a truck is set up and not only what it is rated for. Come sit in one and work the screen before you decide; ten minutes with Google built-in tells you more than any feature list, and buyers driving in from Malvern down Highway 270, or up from Little Rock and across from Benton and Bryant on Interstate 30, routinely say the same thing. Garland County shoppers can be here in a few minutes, and Benton is a half hour down the interstate. See what is in stock or schedule a test drive.
