Chevy Towing Capacity by Configuration

You’ll need the right equipment to reach the maximum Chevy Colorado towing abilities, but it’s also important to note that each trim has slightly different — but respectable — capabilities. Keep these engine specs in mind when you’re selecting your Colorado model and engine:

  • Colorado w/ 2.5L 4-Cylinder – All models equipped with the baseline Colorado engine can tow up to 3,500 pounds.
  • Colorado w/ 3.6L V6 – Upgrade to a V6 engine with the Trailering Package to reach a 7,000-pound maximum towing capacity. Without the Trailering Package, this engine tows 3,500 pounds.
  • Colorado w/ Duramax® 2.8L Turbo-Diesel 4-Cylinder – Equip your truck with the Duramax® diesel engine to reach the maximum Chevy Colorado towing figures. All models so outfitted can tow up to 7,700 pounds!

Also, note that Snoqualmie drivers who opt for the capable Colorado ZR2 trim will have a maximum capacity of 5,000 pounds. Though the Chevy Colorado towing abilities are slightly reduced in this configuration, it’s still more than enough power to tow some jet skis or a couple of ATVs. Owners will also appreciate the special off-road capabilities that make even more adventures possible. Our finance team can let you know which trim level might fit your budget!

Chevy Colorado Engine Specs 

The different engines also have slightly different specs that will alter your driving experience and fuel economy.
