You’ve already been shown the official pics of Chevrolet’s Colorado “Show Truck”, unveiled in Bangkok a few days ago at a GM function. Now here are some live shots of the one-tonne challenger that will go on sale in Thailand late this year.
Making a lot of its near 100 year old history of making trucks, Chevrolet even brought some of the past masters to Bangkok, which contrasted strongly with the Colorado. Described as a “stylized version of the new truck”, the show truck features an extended-cab body on a high-ride 4WD chassis. The production model rolling off Rayong won’t be wearing those 20-inch wheels and off-road tyres though, and the LED count could be less.
Power comes from a 2.8L turbodiesel engine, Chevy says, but there weren’t other details released. Will there be a smaller engine? If not, we’ll need to see how GM’s choice of + 0.3 litres over the 2.5L bar compares with Ford’s choice of – 0.3 litres for the Ranger. The Blue Oval has also set six-speeds (with manual shift) as the auto gearbox benchmark. Read all about the Ranger here.
More pics after the jump.

What happen to the show girls???
only single cabin available?
Love the looks! but dunno the engine,, its Isuzu I-series engine,, sure no power one..
It’s not an Isuzu engine at all.
Both the 2.2L and 2.8L engines in the 2011 Colorado are newly-sourced VM-Motori designs, designed in Italy and manufactured by GM in Rayong, Thailand. The 2.2L is the same engine that will also be going into the Cruze minor change this November.
While on the topic, the next generation Isuzu D-Max will continue using (revised) versions of their current 2.5L and 3.0L engines – the new engines are only for the Colorado and it’s 2012 SUV counterpart.

There will be two diesel engines for the 2011 Colorado – a 2.2L making 163HP and the 2.8L making 200HP.
The Cruze will also get the new 2.2L engine in November 2011, but it’ll get revised tuning, pushing power from the new 2.2L to 184HP.
The Singaporean Colorado will get 2.4 turbo petrol instead to make 220HP, while the Silverado uses 3.6 Supercharged V6 at 360HP.
Will Chevrolet Colorado comes to Singapore???

I am not convinced with the truck. Good interior exterior but its quality isn’t good, even the performance. I want to know about the resale value of Colorado
