Most-Efficient Truck is the Duramax Diesel

Sep 2, 2016

Kelley Blue Book has recommended the 2016 Chevy Colorado Duramax diesel, calling it the most fuel-efficient pickup in the United States. This means that you get the right balance of tough capability and smart gas mileage. This class-exclusive diesel is just one reason to schedule a test drive at your Chevy dealer Noblesville, IN.

Turbo Power
The Duramax is a diesel turbo. It saves at the pump with 31 mpg highway, beating every other truck on the market. This makes it a good citizen and a budget-smart member of your work team. The 2.8-liter unit delivers 369 lb.ft. of torque, which is more than every midsized truck and even some full-size trucks. Tows are much easier with low-rev torque thrust for acceleration.

Ride Quality
Kelley Blue Book reports that the Duramax ride quality is smooth and composed. With a smaller turning circle and more carlike handling, the driver will enjoy the drive. The reviewers have noted that diesel noise has been kept out of the cabin, improving ride quality for driver and passengers alike. Find your best deal.

Capability
With so much power, the 2016 Chevy Colorado Duramax has a 7,700-pound tow rating. When compared to rivals, it beats them by almost 1,000 pounds. A trailer brake controller and a diesel exhaust brake add stopping power to match this truck’s capability.

Technology
The modern cab offers a cockpit where the driver can tune into Bluetooth streaming audio and passengers can tap into OnStar’s Wi-Fi. Apple CarPlay is the newest addition to the Chevy MyLink audio touchscreen system.
