2019 Chevrolet Colorado Z71 V6 4x4 Crew Cab, Long Box with Locking Rear Differential


Introduction

The Colorado Z71 holds a specific spot in the mid-size truck world: compact enough to stay easy to live with daily, capable enough to handle backcountry roads and tow a serious trailer. This 2019 unit keeps its long box, its 4x4 driveline with the two-speed AutoTrac transfer case, and the full Z71 off-road package. It is the kind of pickup that moves easily from cottage weekends to a week on the job site without pretending to be something it is not.


Performance and Driving

Under the hood, the 3.6L direct-injection V6 produces 308 horsepower and 275 lb-ft of torque, paired with an automatic transmission. This is the most generous gas engine offered on this generation of Colorado, and it keeps real headroom even when loaded or climbing. Tow/Haul mode adjusts shift points when pulling a trailer, and the 79-litre fuel tank allows for solid range between stops.


Off-Road and Four-Season Capability

The Z71 package is more than a sticker. It brings an off-road tuned suspension, a two-speed AutoTrac electric transfer case, an automatic locking rear differential, Hill Descent Control and a transfer case shield. On gravel back roads, in the sugar bush, on a trail or simply in a snowed-in driveway, the 4x4 system works with genuine margin.


Towing and Hauling

With its long box (74 inches at the floor), this Colorado offers noticeably more cargo room than the short box. Based on this Crew Cab Long Box V6 4x4 configuration, towing capacity reaches 5,000 lb with a standard hitch and up to 7,550 lb with a properly equipped weight-distributing hitch. Hitch Guidance projects a guideline to make hooking up a trailer easier when working alone.


Comfort and Cabin

The crew cab seats five with a folding rear bench. The driver gets a six-way power seat with power lumbar, and the front passenger gets a four-way power seat with lumbar as well. Both front seats are heated, and the leather-wrapped steering wheel is heated too. Automatic climate control, electronic cruise control, auto-dimming rearview mirror, color multi-function driver display and power windows round things out for long drives without fatigue.


Technology and Convenience

The remote starter takes the edge off January mornings, and wireless phone charging keeps the cable clutter out of the console. The HD rear vision camera and ultrasonic rear park assist make backing up a long-box truck a lot less stressful. Teen Driver mode lets you pre-set boundaries for a younger driver. The EZ-Lift tailgate reduces effort opening and closing, and the CornerStep built into the rear bumper makes climbing into the box much easier.

FAQ


What's the difference between this gas V6 and the 2.8L Duramax diesel offered on the Colorado?

The 3.6L gas V6 makes 308 horsepower and 275 lb-ft, while the 2.8L Duramax turbo-diesel produces less horsepower but more low-end torque and uses less fuel. The V6 accelerates more eagerly, generally costs less to maintain and does not require DEF. The diesel is more comfortable on long-distance towing and offers better range. For a mix of recreational use and light work, the gas V6 is often the more rational choice.
