As with several brands in the world, Chevrolet provides a special version of one of its pickups to the Armed Forces. But unlike the commercial one, the one used by the infantry squad has several modifications. Next, all the details.
a little over a week ago Chevy presented its latest off-road truck, the new version of the Colorado . This model will begin to be sold only in the United States market from next year and will discontinue its predecessor, which, despite being supplanted, will remain alive.
Although the current version of the pick-up renewed by the Detroit brand will no longer be sold, there is a special variant used by the US Army that will not be retired. It is a ship specially adapted for the infantry squad with a structure totally different from the commercial version that is usually seen on the streets of the city.
How is the Chevrolet Colorado for combat
The battle version of the Chevrolet Colorado combines a reverted structure for use by the US Armed Forces. It combines the bodywork of the aggressive ZR2 model with off-road upgrades from Multimatic, built by the General Motors (GM) Defense division capable of transporting nine soldiers and their equipment.
Although the new model of this SUV is about to break into the market, it has already been clarified that it will not have a military variant. According to the Motor1.com site, a company spokesperson clarified that the forces were made up of enough previous-generation cadres to fill their current order for the infantry squad vehicle (ISV) from GM Defense.
The current model of Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 is a truck that competes with the Ford Ranger Raptor 2022. It is powered by a powerful 3.6-liter V6 engine, which offers a maximum power of 761 CV, with a maximum torque of 814 Nm, which transforms it into one of the pick- up wildest North American market.
