Chevrolet Starts to Develop Colorado Performance Concept

Chevrolet teamed up with Motorcyclist Ricky Carmichael to develop Colorado Performance concept that is designed to provide lifestyle-supporting capability and is set to be unveiled at the SEMA Show in Vegas.

The redesigned Colorado is equipped with bike mounting capabilities in the vehicles 6' 2" cargo bed which is capable of carrying items up to eight feet long.

The company has redesigned the exterior of the pickup truck with gray exterior color accented and high-gloss silver along with yellow accents which replicates the hall-of-fame racer's competitive spirit.

Colorado is powered by a 3.6L V-6 engine capable of producing 305 horsepower and it can pump 269 lb-ft of torque, and the vehicle is capable of going 26 mpg on the highway.

Carmichael said: "Where I take my bikes, a full-size truck isn't always the best solution, so a maneuverable midsize truck like the Colorado is just the ticket.

"Besides a cargo bed that's not only large enough to haul a motocross bike and a mountain bike, the Colorado has the power to confidently take them where the pavement ends."
