Three engines are offered for the new model year: a standard 2.5L inline four-cylinder engine, a 3.6L V6, and a new Duramax 2.8L Turbo Diesel. So, how does this translate to towing capacity?<\/p>\n\n\n<p>In its standard four-cylinder configuration, a potent 3,500-pound towing capacity greets buyers. However, when a buyer upgrades to the 3.6L V6, that value is boosted to 7,000 pounds. Finally, with the 2.8L Duramax Turbo Diesel, the Colorado rewards buyers with an otherworldly 7,700 pounds.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.buyevscars.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/582\/2017\/02\/2017-Chevrolet-Colorado-B04_o.jpg\" alt=\"2017 Chevrolet Colorado Top View\" class=\"wp-image-8189\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/760\/2017\/02\/23212047\/2017-Chevrolet-Colorado-B04_o.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/760\/2017\/02\/23212047\/2017-Chevrolet-Colorado-B04_o-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.buyevscars.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/582\/2017\/02\/2017-Chevrolet-Colorado-ZR2-B192_o.jpg\" alt=\"2017 Chevrolet Colorado Dashboard View\" class=\"wp-image-8188\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/760\/2017\/02\/23212046\/2017-Chevrolet-Colorado-ZR2-B192_o.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/760\/2017\/02\/23212046\/2017-Chevrolet-Colorado-ZR2-B192_o-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.evsauto.com\/blog\/category\/new-chevy-models\/\"><em><strong>Read More Topics About Chevrolet!<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n<h3>2017 Chevy Colorado Towing Features<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>To assist with the process of towing, the new Colorado offers a number of great features to make things certifiably simpler.
