Performance

Under the hood, the Chevy Silverado comes with four different engine choices, while the Chevy Colorado offers a single-engine option with an option for increased output. Mansfield drivers can consider one of these lively options with the Chevy Silverado:

• Turbocharged 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine delivering 310 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque
• 5.3-liter V8 engine offering 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque
• 6.2-liter V8 engine generating 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque
• Turbocharged three-liter six-cylinder diesel engine producing 305 horsepower and 495 pound-feet of torque

The Chevy Silverado can tow up to 9,500 pounds with the appropriate equipment, making it a robust option for work-related tasks. In contrast, the Chevy Colorado has a towing limit of 6000 pounds. This capability from the Chevy Colorado is thanks to a turbocharged 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine, which generates either 237 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque or 310 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque in its high-output variation. For everyday tasks around Hornell, the Chevy Colorado could be the more suitable choice, while the Chevy Silverado offers the power and variety needed for more demanding performance needs.

Interior and technology

Both the Chevy Silverado and the Chevy Colorado come with significant interior amenities. The base Chevy Silverado is equipped with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity linked to a seven-inch touchscreen. The Chevy Colorado, on the other hand, steps up the luxury with similar wireless capabilities but connects to a larger 11.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system.

The higher trim levels of the Chevy Silverado, such as the LTZ, include ventilated front seats, full leather seating, a Bose premium audio system, and the capability for wireless smartphone charging. While similar features are available for the Chevy Colorado, they require the purchase of additional packages.
