2012 Chevrolet Colorado

March 24th, 2011 by Arman

Chevrolet released preview images of the next generation Colorado pickup truck ahead of its official debut in Bangkok, Thailand.

So it’s a concept show truck for now, but don’t worry because the finished product will look very close to this fantastic vehicle. It features a muscular and chunky extended-cab style. Some of the features of the concept models like 20-inch wheels for example might not be very production-ready, but the rest of it is up to the job for rivaling Ford’s new Ranger. The Colorado will be built Chevrolet’s strong truck DNA and award-winning heritage.

Power comes from an efficient 2.8L turbo-diesel engine, which produces a broad torque band for excellent cargo and towing capability.

nside, there’s another signature Chevrolet cue: a dual-cockpit instrument panel design. It flows into the doors, with continuous lines that create a floating, wraparound effect, amplifying the Colorado’s feeling of spaciousness. Ice-blue lighting and high-quality, “double-faced” leather-trimmed seats add sophistication and refinement.

Chevrolet has picked Thailand to reveal this car because that country is the biggest market for mid-size pick up trucks. The Colorado goes on sale in Thailand later this year.
