GM delivery reports provide observed U.S. volumes rather than registrations, fleet size, or a global sales estimate. The figures describe the reporting periods shown and include the selling-day and discontinued-model policy stated in the Q4 release.

U.S. reporting period Colorado deliveries Measure
Q4 2022 20,602 GM-reported quarter
Q4 2023 12,396 GM-reported quarter

Q1 2024 14,922 GM-reported quarter

GM reported 12,396 Colorados delivered in the United States during Q4 2023, versus 20,602 in Q4 2022; the release reports the year-over-year change as -39.8%. For the full calendar year, GM reported 71,081 Colorado deliveries in 2023 and 89,197 in 2022. GM U.S. DELIVERIES FOR QUARTER 4 2023

The next reported quarter recorded 14,922 Colorado deliveries in the United States in Q1 2024. This is a quarterly delivery measure, not a continuation of the calendar-year total. GM U.S. DELIVERIES FOR QUARTER 1 2024

2025 Chevrolet Colorado Prices and Powertrain Data

The 2025 U.S. model-year lineup used the same basic engine specification across trims, while starting MSRP and wheel diameter varied by trim. MSRP is a starting price; options and destination-related terms can affect the final transaction price.

2025 trim Starting MSRP Wheel specification
WT $31,900 17 inches
Custom $33,045 18 inches
LT $35,800 Not specified here
Trail Boss $39,900 Not specified here
Z71 $43,900 Not specified here
ZR2 $49,600 Not specified here

The 2025 Colorado WT started at $31,900, while the Custom started at $33,045 and the LT at $35,800. The Trail Boss started at $39,900, the Z71 at $43,900, and the ZR2 at $49,600. 2025 Chevy Colorado: Midsize Truck | Chevrolet

Every 2025 Colorado used a 2.7-liter TurboMax inline-four engine. Chevrolet rated it at 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque, and specified regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 87.

The WT used 17-inch wheels and the Custom used 18-inch wheels. These are model-year trim specifications, not a claim that every available option package shared the same wheel measurement.

Chevrolet Colorado Dimensions, Cabin and Payload Statistics

The 2023 U.S. brochure provides dimensions and capacities for specific configurations. Chevrolet labels the fuel-tank figure approximate and cautions that cargo and load capacity are limited by weight and distribution.

The 2023 Colorado had approximately 21.4 gallons of fuel-tank capacity, a seating layout of two front seats and three rear seats, and 41.9 cubic feet of brochure cargo volume. The inside bed length at the floor was 61.7 inches across all models, while the wheelbase was 131.4 inches across all models. 2023 Chevrolet Colorado eBrochure

The WT and LT length was 213.0 inches. Front and rear legroom measured 45.2 and 34.7 inches, respectively, while the ZR2 ground-clearance figure was 10.7 inches.

2023 configuration Maximum payload
2WD WT, 2.7L Turbo 1,500 lb
4×4 WT, 2.7L Turbo 1,490 lb
2WD LT, 2.7L Turbo 1,460 lb
4×4 LT, 2.7L Turbo 1,450 lb
2WD WT, 2.7L Turbo Plus 1,710 lb
4×4 LT, 2.7L Turbo Plus 1,670 lb
Trail Boss or Z71 1,580 lb
ZR2 1,280 lb

The payload table shows why configuration matters: the listed maximums range from 1,280 pounds for the ZR2 to 1,710 pounds for the 2WD WT with the 2.7L Turbo Plus engine. Actual carrying capacity depends on the vehicle label, occupants, cargo distribution, and equipment.

Chevrolet Colorado Towing and Trailering Statistics

Chevrolet’s 2025 crew-cab trailering table reports gross combination weight rating and maximum trailer weight by configuration. Passengers, cargo, options, accessories, and required trailering equipment can change the practical limit.

2025 configuration GCWR Maximum trailer weight
2.7L TurboMax crew cab, listed 2WD row 13,250 lb 7,700 lb
2.7L TurboMax crew cab, listed 4WD row 13,250 lb 7,700 lb
ZR2 2.7L TurboMax crew cab 11,600 lb 6,000 lb in 4WD

The standard TurboMax crew-cab rows list a 13,250-pound gross combination weight rating with the 3.42 axle ratio and a 7,700-pound maximum trailer weight in both listed 2WD and 4WD columns. The table footnotes require specified trailering equipment for those maximums. 2025 Colorado Trailering¹

The ZR2 TurboMax crew-cab row lists an 11,600-pound GCWR and a 6,000-pound maximum trailer weight for the 4WD configuration. Both the standard TurboMax and ZR2 TurboMax rows list a 3.42 axle ratio.

IIHS Chevrolet Colorado Crash-Test Ratings

IIHS results are controlled tests of a specified vehicle, not population accident rates. The cited page identifies a tested 2025 Colorado WT Crew Cab 4WD, with ratings applying to 2023–26 models under the stated IIHS criteria.

In the updated moderate-overlap front test, the Colorado received one overall Marginal rating, while its structure and safety cage received a Good rating. Four driver injury-measure categories—head/neck, chest, thigh/hip, and leg/foot—received Good ratings.

The same front test rated two rear-passenger injury-measure categories, head/neck and chest, Marginal. The rear-passenger thigh category received a Good rating, and restraints and kinematics received an Acceptable rating.

In the updated side test, the tested Colorado received one overall Good rating and an Acceptable structure and safety-cage rating. Driver head/neck, torso, pelvis, and head-protection categories received Good ratings; three rear-passenger protection categories were Good, while rear-passenger head protection was Acceptable. 2024 Chevrolet Colorado

IIHS Chevrolet Colorado Crash-Test Technical Measurements

The technical measurements below come from the same IIHS trials and should be read as instrumented dummy or vehicle-compartment measures, not human injury rates. The updated moderate-overlap test is identified as test ID CEF2518, and the updated side test as CES2502.

Test measurement Result Test
Footrest intrusion 6 cm Moderate overlap, CEF2518
Brake-pedal intrusion 3 cm Moderate overlap, CEF2518
Instrument-panel rearward movement, left/right 1 cm / 1 cm Moderate overlap, CEF2518
Steering-column movement, upward/rearward 1 cm / -1 cm Moderate overlap, CEF2518
Driver HIC-15 176 Moderate overlap, CEF2518
Driver maximum chest compression 30 mm Moderate overlap, CEF2518
Driver torso deflection, maximum/average 20 mm / 18 mm Side test, CES2502

The moderate-overlap test recorded driver neck tension of 0.8 kN and extension bending moment of 10 Nm. Rear-passenger measurements included 2.5 kN of neck tension, 0.3 kN of neck compression, a chest index of 44, and 6.1 kN of shoulder-belt tension.

IIHS also recorded 1 cm of rearward movement on both left and right instrument-panel measurements, plus steering-column movement of 1 cm upward and -1 cm rearward. The negative rearward value is reported direction-specifically by IIHS.

The side test recorded maximum driver torso deflection of 20 mm and average driver torso deflection of 18 mm. These technical results describe one controlled test configuration and do not measure the Colorado fleet’s real-world crash frequency or injury rate.
