The Colorado ZR2 has the first off-road shocks to feature position-sensitive spool valve technology, making the truck equally adept on and off the road. To make it even more capable Chevy loaded it up with standard features include segment-exclusive front electronic locking differential, electronic locking rear differential, hill descent control, an aluminum skid plate that protects the radiator and oil pan, off-road rocker protection, Autotrac transfer case, transfer case shield, four-wheel disc brakes, modified rear axle with a 3.42 ratio and special off-rode mode setting.

At rest, the ZR2 distinguishes itself with its aggressive hood and grille combo and modified front and rear bumpers designed for better off-road clearance. Our test truck a Colorado ZR2 with the Midnight Edition featured an all-black exterior finish, black Chevy bow tie emblems and 17-inch five-spoke black accessory wheels, including the spare. The ZR2 Midnight also features a black sport bar with off-road LED lighting and ZR2 logos on the sport-bar sail panels. “The Colorado ZR2 Midnight and Dusk Edition models offer customers even more personalization choices from the only company with three distinct trucks: midsize, full-size and full-size heavy-duty,” said Jim Campbell, U.S. vice president, Truck Strategy, Performance Vehicles and Motorsports. “Chevrolet offers more choices because the truck market is too diverse for a ‘one size fits most’ strategy.” Colorado ZR2 Midnight Edition
