Looking like something straight out of Bungie’s original Halo video game series, the Chevrolet Colorado ZH2 was revealed with a state-of-the-art fuel cell power system exclusively for the U.S. Army.
Master Chief’s Warthog the U.S. Army will take possession of the Chevy Colorado ZH2 later next year for one year of intense field operations to study how fuel cell vehicles can benefit the military’s fleet. But, we’re not here to talk about the vehicle’s specs, we’re here to discuss its design in today’s Hot or Not. If you do want the specs, check those out here, though.
First thing is first: this is a big truck. The Colorado ZH2 stands six and a half feet tall and seven feet wide, with help from 37-inch tires and a unique suspension setup to cement its aggressive stance. The Colorado ZH2 takes an unfamiliar face with Chevy trucks, however.
Gone are the wide-eyed headlamps in exchange for slim, presumably LED, headlights with a similarly slimmed up Chevrolet split grille. In the rear, a rounder rear fascia and slim taillamps are also present. We’d say it looks just future-forward enough without looking inappropriately futuristic.
Not to mention, the sand camouflage and dusty paint hue look really good on this beast.
The Chevrolet Colorado ZH2 has zero chances of falling into the public’s lap, but who knows, it could preview future Chevy truck design. And with that statement, we will turn it to you. Vote in our poll and talk to us in the comment section on the U.S. Army’s new toy.

Did you have to ask?
I know there will be one person complaining they can’s see out the back?
This is a true replacement for a Hummer H3 in the private market. Now if they can make it look like this and not cost what the government would pay.
This truck is cool enough if the Army left any in the middle east people would go over and fight ISIS for one if it were the only way to get one.
Don’t worry about ISIS, because this thing like all chevy’s come with Big Brother watching On-Star. So all on star has to do is give its GPS IP code to the nearest Drone and Bada-BOOM!!, instead of Colorado they could call it “Trojan Horse”.
Strange how On-star says they don’t collect data when you don’t pay for the service, but I still get emails about routine service based on mileage. hmmm
That is horrible looking! It looks like one of those vehicles from the apocalyptic MAD MAX movies. I have a neighbor that would love that thing, he would punch holes in the muffler and jack it up another 3 feet.
And that if priced right why GM could make money on this one. Trucks are cheap to build and this one people would pay a premium for as it is a end of the world like vehicle.
Big trucks and Hummers have their segment and this would sell.
NEWSFLASH: This Colorado runs on Fuel Cells. punching holes in the exhaust wont make a difference.
It’s for the military, style points don’t count!
