2007 Chevy Colorado
Chevrolet Colorado 2007 Lineup Features Larger, More Powerful Engines
A truck's capability is inextricably linked to its horsepower and torque output - and the 2007 Chevy Colorado answers customers' calls for more of both with new, larger and more powerful four- and five-cylinder engines. A new, 2.9L DOHC four-cylinder with variable valve timing (VVT) replaces the previous 2.8L four-cylinder and delivers 185 horsepower (138 kW) and 190 lb.-ft. of torque (258 Nm).* A new, 3.7L DOHC five-cylinder with VVT replaces the previous 3.5L engine and is rated at 242 horsepower (180 kW) and 242 lb.-ft. of torque (328 Nm).*
The new 2.9L engine produces approximately 6 percent more horses and about 3 percent more torque than the previous four-cylinder, while the new 3.7L engine offers a substantial 10 percent increase in horsepower and nearly 8 percent more torque than the previous five-cylinder engine. The 2.9L is standard in all models except 4WD Crew Cab and the 3.7L is available (standard on 4WD Crew Cab).
