As drivers get ready to dig out of the snow and begin getting to work on their spring and summer projects, they’re increasingly heading to EVS Auto Group to find the best truck to get them through the months ahead. One of the most popular models in this regard is the 2017 Chevy Colorado, a potent midsized addition to our lineup. So, when you’re getting ready to pull up to the hitch, what should you know about the towing capacity and features of the 2017 Chevy Colorado?
2017 Chevy Colorado Towing Capacity
While midsize pickups aren’t frequently mentioned among the most potent haulers available today, someone forgot to tell this to the 2017 Chevy Colorado. 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?
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.

To assist with the process of towing, the new Colorado offers a number of great features to make things certifiably simpler.
