2026 Chevrolet Colorado LT

The 2026 Colorado is Chevrolet's mid-size pickup, slotting between the compact Maverick and full-size Silverado. It squares off against the Toyota Tacoma, Ford Ranger, and Jeep Gladiator in the mid-size truck segment. The Colorado's turbo four pulls strongly and feels eager around town, with a composed highway ride. Its steering is precise and the chassis feels planted, though the ride can be firm on rough pavement. The cabin offers a clean layout with a standard touchscreen, and the crew cab provides decent rear legroom. The LT sits between the work-oriented WT and the off-road-focused Trail Boss, adding heated seats, dual-zone climate control, and keyless entry without the Z71's extra off-road gear. Its turbocharged 2.7L Turbomax makes 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque, paired with an eight-speed automatic and two-wheel drive for a responsive feel that's eager around town, and it returns 21 mpg combined. The Safety Package adds blind zone steering assist and rear cross traffic braking, giving the LT a helpful layer of protection when maneuvering in tight spots.
