Chevrolet Colorado Pros and Cons
Thanks to the powerful diesel engine, the truck is a capable performer which delivers power efficiently. Thanks to the 2.8L diesel engine that the truck can come equipped with. Also, a high point for the vehicle is the addition of multiple technology and safety features in select variants. Handling is also not a chore and is surprising for a midsize pickup.

Perhaps the seats could use a touch more softness and cushion, but the con is exacerbated by the difficulty in finding a good driving position since the steering wheel doesn’t adjust telescopically. On top of all of this, the 4x4 system, if equipped, lacks a locking differential; which aids in the off-roadability of this pickup.
