2018 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 Race Development Truck

The ZR2 Race Development Truck builds on the ZR2's desert-running capability with a long-travel version of the stock truck's DSSV shocks. These are tuned for high-speed off-road use, adding unique parts validated by Chevy Performance Engineering and legendary off-road racer Chad Hall in the Best in the Desert racing series:
•1.5-inch body lift
•33-inch Goodyear Wrangler MT/R tires
•Rear shock skidplates
•Rear differential skidplate
•Steel driveshaft
•Wheel spacers with extended-length wheel studs
•Off-road air intake and performance exhaust

The ZR2 Race Development Truck also shares the 3.6L V-6 and segment-exclusive eight-speed transmission with ZR2. Both trucks leverage the electronic locking front and rear differentials, Off-Road Mode and additional elements from the regular production ZR2.

'Colorado can play any way you want,' said Campbell. 'The work with AEV and Hall Racing acknowledges the strengths of our midsize platform, with both SEMA entries showcasing the versatility that's already made Colorado a resounding success.'

2018 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 Race Development TruckColorado celebrates its three-year anniversary this month, with more than 250,000 sales in 36 months. Colorado also boasts the segment's first applications of 4G LTE Wi-Fi and Apple CarPlay, along with safety features such as Forward Collision Alert and Lane Departure Warning.
