The 2027 Chevrolet Colorado WT 2WD Crew Cab is 213.02 inches long and 74.91 inches wide without mirrors. For shoppers near Springdale, that is a four-door midsize pickup with a 61.70-inch bed, 34.70 inches of rear legroom and room for five.

Colorado Engine and Drivetrain

Chevrolet pairs the automatic with the same TurboMax on all six trims. For buyers looking at a lifted model for the roads west of I-49 near Fayetteville, the powertrain stays the same and the tire and suspension setup change.

Exterior Dimensions and Weight

These figures are for the listed base Crew Cab Short Box configurations. Chevy’s Build & Price measures body width without the mirrors and separates trim-specific curb weight from the truck’s maximum loaded weight.

All six listed builds have a 131.36-inch wheelbase. The truck spans 84.4 inches across the mirrors, a useful second measurement when the truck spends the night in a garage in Rogers or Bella Vista.

Interior Dimensions and Bed Measurements

The 41.9-cubic-foot short bed is 58.80 inches wide at the floor and 45.50 inches wide between the wheel wells. The 61.70-inch floor gives Siloam Springs buyers a separate place for tools and coolers while the rear bench stays available for passengers.

Wheels, Tires and Suspension

WT uses 17-inch wheels and all-season tires. Custom adds gloss-black 18-inch aluminum wheels and LT uses 17-inch Blade Silver wheels. Trail Boss and Z71 have 32-inch all-terrain tires on 18-inch wheels. The ZR2 switches to 33-inch mud-terrain tires on 17-inch wheels, and the available Bison setup moves up to 35-inch mud-terrain tires.

Colorado uses an independent front suspension and a two-stage multi-leaf rear suspension. The ZR2’s Multimatic DSSV dampers are part of its three-inch factory lift.

Fuel Economy and Range

The 2WD Colorado has the highest highway EPA rating in the lineup for regular drives on US-412. The ZR2 and Bison have separate EPA figures from the regular 4WD truck.

Key Features by Trim

Safety Equipment

Forward Collision Alert and Automatic Emergency Braking are standard. Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning can provide a steering nudge when the truck drifts across a detected lane line. Available HD Surround Vision on LT helps show the area beside and around the truck when parking in Lowell.

Warranty Coverage

Chevrolet includes a first eligible maintenance visit during the first year. The Colorado maintenance schedule calls for tire rotation every 7,500 miles after that first visit as part of the regular schedule.

Colorado Dimensions in Practice

Colorado Specifications FAQs

How long is a Colorado Crew Cab?

The WT and Custom 2WD Crew Cabs measure 213.02 inches long. LT 2WD, Trail Boss 4WD and Z71 4WD measure 213.21 inches long. The ZR2 comes in at 212.69 inches, and all of these trucks share the same 131.36-inch wheelbase.

How wide is the Colorado with the mirrors out?

Measured across the mirrors, the truck is 84.4 inches wide. In the body-width figures, the 2WD WT measures 74.91 inches and Trail Boss 4WD measures 78.09 inches. The Trail Boss has a wider fender span than the 2WD WT.

Does the ZR2 fit under the same garage opening as the WT?

The standard ZR2 measures 81.80 inches tall, compared with 78.79 inches for the WT 2WD. The ZR2 comes with 33-inch tires and a factory lift. Bison uses a taller lift and larger tires, so the standard ZR2 height does not describe a Bison build.

How wide is the bed at the wheel wells?

The bed measures 45.50 inches between the wheel wells and 58.80 inches across the wider portion. The short box is 61.70 inches long and has 41.9 cubic feet of volume. StowFlex on LT adds a separate storage compartment inside the tailgate.

Does four-wheel drive change fuel economy?

Yes. The regular 4WD Colorado is rated at 19 mpg combined, while the 2WD Colorado is rated at 21 mpg combined. The ZR2 and ZR2 Bison each have separate ratings because the EPA lists them as distinct tire and chassis configurations.

What gasoline goes in the 2027 Colorado?

The TurboMax runs on regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane of 87. The fuel tank holds 21.5 gallons. Chevrolet uses that engine and fuel requirement on all six trims, including the WT, Trail Boss and ZR2, without a premium-fuel requirement.

How much does a Z71 weigh before cargo?

The base Z71 4WD Crew Cab Short Box has a curb weight of 4,517 pounds and a 6,250-pound GVWR. The figures leave 1,733 pounds of base payload before adding options. A truck with additional equipment can have a different payload label.

Exact dimensions and payload vary with equipment. EPA ratings are estimates.
