Chevy Colorado Towing Capacity by Engine

The Chevy Colorado towing capacity is born from a trio of powerful engine options. The engines can be bolstered with the addition of the Trailering Package. Which one is right for the way you drive in Hanceville?

• Colorado w/ 2.5L 4-Cylinder – This is the baseline Chevy Colorado engine, and it can tow up to 3,500 pounds.
• Colorado w/ 3.6L V6 – When you upgrade to a V6 engine you can still tow up to 3,500 pounds. When you add the Trailering Package, that number jumps to 7,000 pounds.
• Colorado w/ Duramax® 2.8L Turbo-Diesel 4-Cylinder – Go all out when you equip your truck with the Duramax® diesel engine to reach the Colorado maximum towing capacity. All models so outfitted can tow up to 7,700 pounds!

If you choose the ZR2 trim level, your Chevy Colorado towing capacity is capped at 5,000 pounds. That’s still enough to get you on the road out of Decatur with your small camper or boat in tow. The Colorado ZR2 offers its own outdoor fun with its enhanced off-road capabilities.
