2023 Chevy Colorado Z71 FULL Tour and Review! /// Allcarnews

My first ever GM press vehicle was this sweet looking 2023 Chevy Colorado with the multipurpose Z71 package. I say multipurpose as it combines on road luxuries with a touch of off road flavor from the more focused Trailboss. But is it worth the nearly $48k my tester came in at?
⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🏁 @Alllcarnews Spec Sheet: For the 2023 Model year, this Z71 gets a 2.7L turbo 4 cylinder making 310HP and 390 lb-ft of torque while a high output version in the ZR2 gets 430 lb-ft of torque. Towing is decent too at 7,700lbs. 🏁
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Highs:
-The looks inside/out are sweet! Bold boxy lines, trim specific facias and a very refreshing, modern interior are very welcome.
-On road handling also impressed me, it drives more car-like than expected though the suspension was a bit firm.
-The engine lineup, being 4 cylinder only, did not disappoint with heaps of torque and a linear feel with the gearbox.

Lows:
-Rear leg space is cramped as expected and interior materials, even with lot’s of options, could be more comfortable.
-The tech generally was flawless though the digital dash frequency froze which was concerning.
- It now has to compete with the upcoming all new Tacoma, Ranger & not yet revealed Ridgeline which are all very promising.

Generally liked it more than I was expecting but it felt like a Porsche with the amount of options needed to get decent features. 7.5/10 for me.

I love the look over the hood. It looks muscular and it is so nice to see some hood in front of you. Plus I love the hidden wiper blades where you have a clear view out of the entire windshield.

16:27 Leave it in 2WD. The only time you should use AUTO mode is in slick pavement, like heavy rain. If you drive around on dry pavement in AUTO mode all the time, it will eventually cause issues to the transfer case. It's AUTO 4WD, not a full time AWD system.

Big Agree with "Keep Airplay!" The Colorado could still use more cabin cubby storage, particularly in the door panels. One thing I've wondered is, why has no one offered a dash cam integrated with the RVM and that space? Great review... glad I found you!

[PJ-gphj]

Great review….knowledgeable on info features and mechanics 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[Revenant_Knight]

DO NOT LEAVE THE DRIVETRAIN IN 4-HIGH ON THE ROAD. You will damage your vehicle. You can set it to AUTO on road, but 4-HIGH is for off road use only.

10/10 review. I’ve seen lots of reviews and they don’t cover half as much as you did in twice the amount of time. Short, quick, and to the point but not too much in a hurry. Well done 👌

Why is everyone complaining about the headlight controls? Who is manually turning them on and off? They automatically come on and off

I purchased the 2023 Canyon Elevation its the base model canyon but comes with more standard stuff then the Z71. And it comes standard with the high output version 2.7 and the zr2 suspension package

[rachaelportillo]

I don't get why everyone complains about why you can't get all the windows up. I'm pretty sure that has to do with safety. Imagine a person not knowing thier window is going up

[jasonmajeski]

gap setting is for adaptive cruise my hyundai sonata has it….it keeps you a predetermined spaced back from the car in front of you.

[Holden-McGroin]

The Z71 bases at about $42k. This particular unit having $6-7k in upgrades, it would be nice to know which of these features come standard. Even on the Website it is extremely vague as to what actually comes standard.

[haroldmoran]

Full size spare 17” while running 18” or 20”

[kevinblock]

Sweet looking truck but almost 50k is an ouch…

[travisbicklemagnum]

Still waiting to trade in my 2010 V8 Colorado for a modern V8 one.

[seaneff]

I drove this for a month and the whole body was vibrating at 80mph and it sways a bit too much every time I exit or enter the freeway

Think the 24 Ford Ranger beats all other midsize offerings
