Chevrolet announced pricing details of the 2017
Colorado ZR2 pickup truck, which is set for launch this spring. The company’s
new off-road pickup truck will be powered by a 3.6-litre V6 packing 308 Hp and
275 Lb-ft of torque but customers will be given the option of a 2.8-litre
Duramax turbodiesel that makes 186 Hp and 369 Lb-ft of torque.
The 2017 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 is also available
with a choice of crew- or extended cab bodystyles, including short and long
beds respectively.
The entry-level ZR2 comes with a pretty respectable
list of standard features that includes things like front and rear locking
electronic diffs, DSSV dampers, a 2-inch suspension lift, wider by 3.5 inches
tracks, modified front and rear bumpers for better clearance, new cast-iron
control arms, an aluminum skidplate, a set of 31-inch off-roar tires and the
list goes on.
The cabin also comes with standard leather seats and
a seven-speaker Bose audio system, while customers can opt for a full-length
black vinyl floor instead of the carpet for free, in case they want to get
their new truck really dirty.
Pricing for the 2017 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 starts
at US$ 40,995 and that includes US$ 940 destination fee. “We’re thrilled to be able
to offer it for more than US$ 2,500 less than the next closest comparable
vehicles. Taken in the context of serious off-roading, US$ 2,000 will buy you 50
years of annual passes to Arches National Park in Moab, Utah,” said Sandor
Piszar, Chevrolet Trucks marketing director.
