Like many trucks, the ZR2's rear bench flips up to create a usable cargo area.Ĭargo space in the bed, however, can be a problem. Two adults can spread out in back thanks to the sizable legroom that comes with the ZR2's crew cab body, although three people would find the amount of shoulder space tight. My five-foot, three-inch wife tired of having to hop up and into the passenger seat, for example. Space in both of the front seats is ample, although the ZR2's lifted ride height does make ingress and egress occasionally challenging, particularly for shorter individuals. The seating position itself is in no way truck like (you sit relatively low in the Colorado's cabin), but it's both pleasant and relaxed. It may share its seats with lesser trucks, but they're comfortable and supportive.
The front clip impacts the ZR2's profile, as well, but not as much as the flared wheel arches, knobbly Goodyear Wrangler tires, rock rails, and my test truck's “off-road sport bar.” While the wheel arches and Wrangler rubber come standard on the ZR2, that sport bar is part of the $3,425 ZR2 Midnight Edition package, as are the black, 17-inch wheels and black bow-tie badges on this test truck.Īs pickup trucks go, the Colorado ZR2 acquits itself well. The hood is unique to the ZR2, too, but it's disappointing that the creases and power bulge aren't really functional. Combined with the visible underbody protection, the ZR2 has ample amounts of Baja Truck DNA in its face. The dominant feature is the revised front clip, which is far higher and more aggressive, all in the name of increasing the Colorado's approach angle. But the ZR2 treatment amplifies this somewhat anonymous truck into a far more aggressive, purposeful thing. Its cleaner, smoother lines are certainly more pleasant than the new Silverado pickup. The Colorado itself is an inoffensive design.
