2009 Chevrolet Colorado Review
Overview
How do you improve on the truck that already defined the standard for its class? By adding more power with the first V8 ever in the lineup: the 300 horse power Vortec 5.3L V8 – in addition to the efficient 185 horse power Vortec 2.9L four-cylinder and 239 horse power Vortec 3.7L five-cylinder engines. Driver control is also enhanced with the StabiliTrak electronic stability control system now standard on all models. Colorado offers Crew Extended and Regular Cab confi gurations. The Crew Cab offers spacious seating for up to six; the cargo capacity is also substantial with a payload of up to 1250 pounds. The practicality of Colorado is evident inside the cab with features like the flat-folding rear 60/40 split- bench seat in Crew Cabs and the handy under-seat storage in the rear of Extended Cabs Even your peace of mind is increased with the knowledge that the advanced OnStar system is now also standard. As well as our 5 year 100 thousand mile warranty. Demand more from a mid-size truck. We already did. The 2009 Chevrolet Colorado.
