2015 Colorado, Canyon Score Impressive Fuel Economy Ratings


Environmental consideration in a pickup? Yep, it’s real, and Chevrolet is leading the way.

In a move that bests its midsize-truck rivals, the 2015 Chevy Colorado and the 2015 GMC Canyon each will have a combined EPA fuel economy rating of 21 mpg. With a 3.6-liter V-6 engine, the two-wheel-drive version of the trucks will be rated at 18 mpg in city driving and 26 mpg on the highway, for a combined rating of 21 mpg. Four-wheel-drive versions aren’t far behind and will be rated 17 mpg in city driving and 24 on the highway, for a combined rating of 20 mpg.

“Colorado proves you don’t have to buy a lot of expensive technology to save money at the pump,” said Tony Johnson, Chevy Colorado marketing manager.
