A dash means the maker’s documents we have don’t give that number for that configuration, and a column with no number for any configuration of the year isn’t shown. “Door label” means the maker prints it only on each vehicle’s certification label, and “not published” that the maker doesn’t print it, or points elsewhere. “Up to” is a ceiling the maker prints over several configurations; a range is the maker’s own, printed across the grades of that configuration.

Third-partyA double underline marks a figure from a magazine test, dealer or spec site, not the maker’s own documents: shown only where the maker publishes nothing, and never used for a headline, comparison or ranking. Its page is listed with the year’s sources.

02 / What changed

New for 2026

The 2026 Colorado against the 2025, the previous model year we hold. Only what Chevrolet’s documents show: nothing here is inferred.

No retail configuration added or dropped: the 9 sold in the 2025 are all here.
Same range as the 2025: towing, payload, ground clearance, curb weight and length.
Towing rating differs on 3 of 9 configurations sold in both years: +4,200 lb.

The 2026 documents

7 documents behind the 2026 Colorado’s figures. The maker’s own come first; a third-party page fills in only a number the maker doesn’t publish, and wears its own mark.

Documents last checked Oct 9, 2026. How we read them and what the marks mean: how we source the numbers. A figure doesn’t match its document? Report a wrong number.

These are Chevrolet’s published figures for the models it describes, not a weighbridge or a tape measure; your own vehicle’s options change them. Found a figure that doesn’t match the document? Tell us.
