The Chevy Colorado Dominated Its Competitors in 2020
In 2020, the Chevy Colorado dominated its competitors, namely the Ford Ranger and Jeep Gladiator. With new variants, three new looks, and the exciting XR2 model, the Chevy Colorado is extremely popular. This popularity has led to increased sales in the United States, Canada, and South Korea, according to Chevrolet. With those numbers, the Colorado easily outperformed the Ranger and Gladiator in sales for 2020. Find your Chevy Colorado for sale near me at Smith Motors, your Chevrolet of Northwest Indiana dealer, now to get in on the exciting action.
The Basics
Offering a perfect combination of performance and capability, the Chevy Colorado is the best vehicle for active lifestyles. The base model offers a standard 2.5L direct-injected 4-cylinder engine with an impressive 200 horsepower and 191 lb.-ft. torque, which will power through anything the road throws at you, and there are several Colorado trim levels to choose from. Making stop-and-go traffic a breeze, the Chevy Colorado includes a 6-speed automatic transmission. It also features CornerStep rear bumper and locking tailgate, giving drivers the tools they need for every road trip. With all of these great features, the performance of the Chevy Colorado can’t be beat.
Impressive Sales Performance
In the fourth quarter of 2020 alone, Chevrolet delivered 27,709 Colorado vehicles. In the same period in 2010, about 25,484 Colorado units were sold, meaning the popularity of the Colorado is only growing with time. This is not just true of the market in the United States; in fact, there was a forty-four percent increase in sales of the Colorado in Canada over 2019 sales (from 1,361 units in 2019 to 1,964 units in 2020).
Additionally, the Chevy Colorado has seen success in non-western markets, specifically in South Korea. In the fourth quarter of 2020, 1,653 units were sold in South Korea, which represents a thirty-one percent increase over the same period in 2019 (1,261 units). Total year sales for 2020 in South Korea reached an impressive 5,049 units, particularly remarkable given the small market for pickups in the country. This was about a 300 percent increase over the previous figures for 2019.
The sales in all markets are expected to increase even further with a total redesign coming to the Colorado for the 2023 model. The redesign might even earn the Chevy Colorado the top-selling spot for the year.
