Speculation on Colorado/Canyon V6 mpg

[swampa]

Everyone , I talked to a chevy rep today and your not going to like what I have to say, I was informed the 2015 chevy colorado crewcab Z71 3.6 4 X 4 with the shortbed gas mileage is 16 City and 21 Highway , and the 2015 chevy colorado crewcab 4 cyl 4 X 4 with shortbed will get 18 City and 25 highway, The 2015 colorado 3.6 V6 Z71 crewcab in 4 X 4 configuration was boasted by chevy to be better than the 2012's 4 X 4 4.3 v6's 25 mpg Highway I guess they feel short of expectations

sorry everyone that i didnt get the 2 wheel drive gas mileage, I was only intrested in the 2015 colorado 4 x 4 Z71 crewcab with the shortbed gas mileage

You don't need to keep posting this in every single thread about these trucks.

Strange that a full size 8 does better on the highway??

My 2014 Double Cab 5.3 Sierra 1500 gets 22 all around and 24-25+ on the Highway. Don't do much straight city driving, but I can guarantee it would be better than 16. Guessing 18. Good luck selling those Colorado's!

 

Did you gat a ball park figure on a MSRP?

He likely made all that up. GM isn't going to sell a truck that's worse on gas than the outgoing model.

I didnt make it up butt head, all conversations at gm are recorded and there is a record of my call and the specs that I was told by the woman I spoke to ,before you start calling people liars get all the facts first ! those specs r right on in my opinion the 3.6 colorado makes 305 horsepower the 4.0 nissan PRO-4X makes 261 horsepower 44 less than colorado 3.6 and the toyota V6 makes 236 horsepower 69 hp less than the colorado 3.6 more horsepower means more fuel consumption period so the 16/21 for 3.6 Z71 colorado crewcab 4x4 that equals toyota and nissan is impressive

[MikeNH]

The numbers make no sense. The Toyota and Nissan engines are both decade old designs that are nowhere near as efficient as a modern GDI engine. I also called Chevy, just to call your bluff and they had no info. Nor did GMC. You were lied to or you're lying. As for the name calling, enjoy the vacation.
