It came. It performed. It conquered. 2024 MotorTrend Truck of the Year.®
The evaluation process was rigorous. The standards high. And when the dust settled, the Colorado emerged the 2024 MotorTrend Truck of the Year®. Colorado excelled in MotorTrend’s six key categories: Advancement in Design, Engineering Excellence, Efficiency, Safety, Value and Performance of Intended Function. In other words, the same criteria you use when you buy a truck.
A broad lineup delivers an impressive range of off-road capability without compromise to everyday livability.

MotorTrend’s criteria for Truck of the Year®
Advancement in Design
A design with a clear point of view and styling that takes advantage of the platform’s proportions is a must.
Engineering Excellence
MotorTrend looks at how well the vehicle is built, as well as its ability to fit the people and things you need day to day.
Efficiency
A vehicle’s fuel efficiency, charge speed, range, operating costs and weight all factor into this category.
Safety
Among other things, MotorTrend tests everything from basics like emergency stops and lane changes to how well advanced driver assistance features perform.
Value
This category is relative to each buyer and segment, and whether the vehicle offers a good bang for your buck.
Performance of Intended Function
This can vary from segment to segment, and looks at how a vehicle does the job it’s intended to do.
A broad lineup delivers an impressive range of off-road capability without compromise to everyday livability.

THE TOUGH GET GOING
The 2024 Colorado is powerful and performance-ready thanks to its aggressive off-road capability and durability, plus an available TurboMaxâ„¢ engine paired with the enhanced 8-speed transmission.

TURBOCHARGED CAPABILITY
TURBOCHARGED CAPABILITY
Let’s talk goals. Engineering goals. To get the available 2.7L Turbo High-Output engine just right, it had to deliver twofold: maximize responsiveness and low-end torque. The gist? Next-level performance and near-instant turbo boost. It’s exactly the capability you demand – right when you need it most.
COMBUSTION PROCESS
COMBUSTION PROCESS
One of the key aspects of meeting those goals is the combustion process, which helps maintain high efficiency.
TURBO DESIGN AND INTEGRATION
TURBO DESIGN AND INTEGRATION
To tackle the tough hauls and tow the heavy loads, an engine requires some real crafting. Again, it’s that strong low-end torque that makes it all possible. But let’s go deeper. The in-line 4-cylinder arrangement provides a symmetrical natural turbo placement, while big cylinders feed into a near-equal-length integrated exhaust manifold that couples with the dual volute turbo. The exhaust pulses are separated through the turbine, which helps provide exceptional responsiveness and turbo boost performance.
AIR COMPRESSION AND COOLING
AIR COMPRESSION AND COOLING
The large-charge air cooler acts as the middleman between the turbo and engine. This feature takes warm, compressed air and cools it down before reaching the engine, increasing efficiency and power. The result: optimum towing capability in hot conditions.
A SUMMARY OF PERFORMANCE
A SUMMARY OF PERFORMANCE
What makes the available 2.7L Turbo High-Output so appealing is its remarkable combination of capability and torque. The details you’ve seen so far, combined with advanced controls, give the engine its high power output and 430 lb.-ft. of torque. It’s a product of rigorous testing and real-world trial that’s ready to work for you.

FULLY FORGED BOTTOM END
FULLY FORGED BOTTOM END
Heavy-duty durability starts with a strong foundation. The engine has a fully forged-steel bottom end, starting with a stiff forged-steel crankshaft and supported by forged-steel main bearing caps.
DIESEL ENGINE TECHNOLOGY
DIESEL ENGINE TECHNOLOGY
Turbocharged engines are subject to higher loads than naturally aspirated engines. That’s why the available 2.7L Turbo High-Output engine is equipped with diesel technologies, such as tri-metal rod bearings, pistons with a fully machined crown and a cast-iron ring carrier supporting a physical vapor deposition (PVD) coated steel top ring. Because when you set out to take on the heavy loads with turbocharged power, start with an engine that was designed to do just that.
DESIGN AND BUILD
DESIGN AND BUILD
Long-term durability all starts with attention to detail. For instance, chain drives are designed to achieve full service life. It’s an extra detail that lives deep inside the hydraulic tensioners and plays a significant role in long-lasting durability by reducing high chain loads and stress on the chain drive systems. The lower crankcase extension also plays a big part and is used to support the main bearing caps. This feature is designed to handle the heavy loads that turbocharging offers while adding to the solid foundation.
THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY
THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY
Another thing about turbocharged engines is they are subject to higher temperatures than naturally aspirated engines. So how do they handle the heat? One way is with spiny lock nodular cast-iron liners. They provide a durable wear surface for the rings, which is critical for long engine life. And the locking interface increases heat transfer out of the cylinder to the water jacket. Sodium-filled exhaust valve stems, as well as high thermal conductivity valve seats and guides, are also used. These help keep exhaust valves running cool under extreme, high-performance situations.
TURBOCHARGER LUBRICATION AND COOLING
TURBOCHARGER LUBRICATION AND COOLING
Symmetrical natural turbo placement allows for priority feed oil from the filter and the perfect coolant routing. This provides thermosyphon cooling, which aids in keeping the turbo cool after shutting down. And under extreme conditions, the electric water pump can provide after-run cooling. Keeping the turbo lubricated and cool are the keys to a long life.
