Chevy Colorado vs Gmc Canyon

Performance & Off-Roading

When it comes to power, both trucks pack a serious punch. They each come standard with a 3.6L V6 engine that packs in 308 horsepower and am impressive 275 lb-ft of torque, providing you with the performance you need to tackle any terrain.

In addition to all that strength, the Chevy Colorado keeps the underbelly of your truck safe while you’re tackling rough terrains thanks to its generous ground clearance. With the Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 Extended Cab with all-wheel drive (AWD), you’ll soar along rocky landscapes with 8.9 inches of ground clearance.

Meanwhile, the GMC Canyon falls slightly short of its Chevy competitor on the off-roading front. The extended cab AWD model of this pickup serves up 8.3 inches of ground clearance. Even that slight difference in ground clearance will make a major difference in how your truck performs on your next off-roading adventure.

Chevy Colorado vs GMC Canyon: Max Payload

Let’s face it: you need lots of muscle to handle all the equipment that you typically carry with you along the road. Luckily, the 2019 Chevy Colorado provides you with 1,574 pounds of maximum payload when properly equipped with its extended cab. As a result, you’ll be able to pull more weight to your next destination.

On the other hand, the 2019 GMC Canyon doesn’t quite match the maximum payload capabilities of the Colorado. Even when equipped with this truck’s extended cab, you’ll be armed with only 1,384 pounds of maximum payload.
