Chevrolet introduced the Colorado ZR2
concept – a vision of how Chevrolet could take the all-new midsize truck’s
off-road capability to the next level. It also showcases the new 2.8L
Duramax diesel engine that will arrive in the Colorado lineup later next year.
The
aggressively styled concept builds on the capabilities of the production
Colorado Z71 and advances the legacy of Chevrolet’s previous ZR2 production
models. The new ZR2’s imposing stance is four inches wider than a production
Colorado Z71, with features including new front and rear fascias, that drastically
reduce front and rear overhang, designed to increase approach and departure
angles when driving off road. They also feature integrated, flip-out aluminum
tow hooks and the front fascia incorporates a built-in winch. The approach and
departure angles are 30.7 and 22.7 degrees, respectively, versus the Z71’s
25/21 degrees. Ground clearance and rough terrain are handled with a two-inch
lift and integral skid plates, while the wider track helps enhance stability in
potentially unstable situations.
