2026 Chevrolet Colorado review

Chevrolet Colorado: capability first, comfort close behind. Illustrative review

7.9/10 OffLot expert score

The 2026 Chevrolet Colorado is a strong contender in its class. Strong tow and payload ratings for the class; standard driver-assist suite. Some cabin plastics feel basic on base trims and upper trims get expensive quickly, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $36,000, it lines up with most direct rivals.

Solid, with a few quirks

We cross-shopped three others and this won on towing stability. the fuel bill when towing is the trade-off.

Twelve thousand miles in. Nothing has gone wrong, dealer service has been easy, and the towing stability still impresses passengers.
