Fun fact: do you know that Chevrolet is a French name? if you don’t, now you know. The Chevrolet Colorado has actually gone worldwide. The transmission is assembled in Mexico, the basic design has a lot of Brazil in it, and the Duramax turbo-diesel engine is made in Thailand.
Furthermore, the car is petite enough to be kept in most garages and is a good vehicle for everyday drive. With an affordable price for a diesel truck, there’s no harm giving this truck a try.
The Chevrolet Colorado comes with 16-bvalve DOHC 2.8-liter Duramax four-cylinder with only 181 horsepower. Still, at 2000 rpm, it goes up to 369 lb-ft of torque, more than what Chevrolet Colorado’s gasoline V-6 can offer.
The diesel used may not be as quick as the V-6, but it is fast enough under most circumstances. The truck does not have the EPA fuel-economy ratings yet, but it is said that the car can go 30 mpg highway. So, what do you think of this truck?
