NEW Colorado ZR2 coming tomorrow

I am excited to see the new Colorado and Caynon, GM has been working on that Wentzville factory for 2 years getting ready for this, and I hear initial production of the new models is already underway, so no long wait for these trucks.

Do we have any expectations for the new platform, besides the switch to the 2.7L Turbo 4 cyl?

Trucks are running on a modified version of the platform they are on now.
I am looking forward to what they will be introducing.
I wonder if they will keep the same power numbers on the 2.7 we see on the Full Sized Trucks.

Oh speaking of the Colorado and Canyon twins, EV equivalents are supposed to be arriving sometime by 2026

Yes, I have SOP for the mid sized pickup EV's Mid 2026, at Orion, right in @Dark-Fx neighborhood. EV Vans also coming in 2026 at Wentzville.

OK, the new Colorado looks much better, and specs are better, interior still iffy, but maybe OK in that segment.

I like that they are down to 1 engine choice, and just performance differences, cheaper to manufacture.
