As is typically the case for all-new vehicles, the 2023 Chevy Colorado overhauls the exterior, interior, and powertrain. As the first model year of Chevy’s third-generation midsize pickup truck, one of the more notable features of the 2023 Colorado is the new screen setup, and today, GM Authority is taking a closer look into the two digital clusters offered in the all-new Colorado.
The 2023 Colorado offers two fully digital driver information centers. The first option is an eight-inch diagonal fully-digital display (RPO code URO) that’s standard on every Colorado trim level except the range-topping ZR2. Meanwhile, 2023 Colorado ZR2 exclusively features the 11-inch diagonal fully-digital display (RPO code URF).
| WT | LT | TrailBoss | Z71 | ZR2 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8-inch diagonal fully-digital display (URO) | S | S | S | S | - |
| 11-inch diagonal fully-digital display (URF) | - | - | - | - | S |
- S = Standard
- – = Not Available

Unfortunately, the larger gauge cluster is not offered on all Colorado trims, even as an option, except for the ZR2. That’s something we hope to see changed in subsequent model years of the third-gen Colorado.
As a reminder, the 2023Â Chevy Colorado features two engine options, starting with the turbocharged 2.7L I4 L2R gasoline motor, rated at 237 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. The turbocharged 2.7L I4 L3B gasoline engine, meanwhile, which produces either 310 horsepower and 391 pound-feet of torque, or 310 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque, depending on the tune.
As far as transmission options go, all 2023 Colorado units utilize an updated version of GM’s eight-speed automatic transmission.
Under the skin, the 2023 Colorado rides on an updated variant of the GMT 31XX platform, while production officially kicked off earlier this year at the GM Wentzville plant in Missouri.
Recently, GM Authority Executive Editor Alex Luft took a deep dive into the 2023 Chevy Colorado Trail Boss‘ interior, providing a thorough overview of the off-road truck’s cabin. Be sure to check it out for further clarity on the digital screen situation of the 2023 Colorado.

Ranger gets Ford has announced that the new Ranger will have a 10.1- and a 12-inch touchscreen that are both vertically oriented. Ranger little bit more expensive after xlt though
@ChevyvsFord: I prefer the horizontal screen as opposed to the vertical but that’s just me. When I worked at a Ford dealership, I just could not get the hang of it.
agreed, horizontal just looks better in a vehicle.
This article is a talking about the digital instrument cluster, not the infotainment touch screen. The standard touch screen is 11.3″ mounted horizontally on all models of both the Colorado and Canyon.
