Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 Concept Debuts in L.A. - Automobile

Compared to a standard 2015 Chevrolet Colorado , the ZR2 concept has its track widened by four inches and its suspension raised by two inches. Meaty 275/65R18 off-roading tires fit beneath widened fenders, while new front and rear fascias increase the Colorado's approach and departure angles from 25/21 degrees to 30. 7/22. 7 degrees, respectively. In addition to the lift, the ZR2's suspension builds upon that of the standard 2015 Chevrolet Colorado with new front control arms, King shock absorbers with remote reservoirs, and electrically locking differentials. The center stack boasts a new "Aux" toggle switch blank, as well as four other switches to control the winch and the front and rear differentials. Although the ZR2 is only a concept, Chevrolet confirms that the 2016 Colorado will offer this Duramax engine as an option from later 2015, alongside the existing 200-hp, 2. 5-liter inline-four and 305-hp, 3. 6-liter V-6 gas engines. Colorado marketing manager Tony Johnson said, "We'll gauge the public's interest in this concept as we continue to explore the possibilities for the all-new Colorado. Source: www.automobilemag.com
