The still-new 2023 Chevrolet Colorado is taking a few changes into 2024, as Pickup Truck Talk found on a perusal of GM's fleet order guide. The biggest change is in the engine bay, Chevy deciding to do away with one of the midsize pickup's engine output levels.

Every Colorado comes with a 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder mated to an eight-cylinder automatic gearbox, the engine power numbers decided by trim:

The engine trim known as Turbo makes 237 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque, standard on the Colorado's Work Truck (WT) and LT trims. Turbo Plus makes 310 hp and 291 lb-ft., an optional choice for the WT and LT, standard on the Trail Boss and Z71.  And Turbo High-Output makes 310 hp and 430 lb-ft., the optional engine for the LT, Trail Boss, and Z71, standard fit for the ZR2.

On the 2024 Colorado, the mid-level Turbo Plus is no more and the Turbo High-Output gets renamed TurboMax. The WT and LT will still come with the Turbo but offer the TurboMax as an option. Every other trim will fit the TurboMax standard.
