The 2023 Chevy Colorado and 2023 GMC Canyon debut all-new third-generation overhauls for both pickup nameplates, ushering in a long list of updates and changes. Critically, GM Authority has learned that new orders for the 2023 Chevy Colorado and 2023 GMC Canyon will be closing this week. As such, customers interested in putting in a new order with their dealer will need to act quickly.
According to GM Authority sources, the final dealer orders for the 2023 Chevy Colorado and 2023 GMC Canyon are going in now. Orders must be placed by 9 p.m. ET on Saturday, September 9th, in order to be accepted by GM.
General Motors unveiled the all-new 2023 Chevy Colorado in July of 2022, while the all-new 2023 GMC Canyon was unveiled in August of 2022. Both models introduce all-new styling, overhauled interiors, new tech items, and a new powertrain as well.
Both the 2023 Chevy Colorado and 2023 GMC Canyon offer three engine options. Kicking it off is the turbocharged 2.7L I4 L2R gasoline engine, rated at 237 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and 260 pound-feet of torque at 1,200 rpm. The mid-range engine option is the Turbo Plus 2.7L I4 L3B gasoline engine, which is rated at 310 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and 391 pound-feet of torque at 2,000 rpm, while the range-topping powertrain is the Turbo Hight-Output 2.7L I4 L3B gasoline engine, rated at 310 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and 430 pound-feet of torque at 3,000 rpm.
To note, the mid-range Turbo Plus 2.7L I4 L3B gasoline engine will no longer be available for the 2024 model year. In addition, the Turbo High-Output 2.7L I4 L3B gasoline engine will adopt the TurboMax branding for the 2024 model year.
The updated second-gen GM eight-speed automatic is offered as the lone transmission option across all three powertrains for the 2023 Chevy Colorado and 2023 GMC Canyon. Under the skin, the third-gen Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon ride on an updated version of the GMT 31XX platform. Both trucks as assembled at the GM Wentzville plant in Missouri.

There going to start taking orders for the 2024 probably wont start making them until deep into 24. meanwhile they still haven’t figured out how to get vehicles from the plant to the dealer lots. If they actually gave the destination money to the carrier every car carrier in America would be lined up single file. There would be a shortage of trucks to drive not drivers
I think they’re just trying to drive up prices creating a artificial shortage so they can take advantage of people in a time of high inflation. It might be an actual line that makes money for them unlike the lines of EVs that nobody wants to buy because of their independability.
Not everyone is buying into this climate change hoax. Ask Noah about climate change.
I live in Canada and dealerships are screw by GM. Why 2 millions new pickup waiting to be sold in the US and in Canada we pray to get one ??? Can someone explain me that BS ?
Ordered a Colorado LT in January. It was built second week of March. I have VIN. Its been listed as built and waiting for shipment for over 6 months. Still not here in September. Now they are talking about 24’s??? Kind of frustrating.
That’s rough! Mine was made in June and has been sitting with 3800 code since then without any movement what so ever. I couldn’t imagine waiting 7 months as I’m already starting to look else where to see whats out there.
I ordered a new Silverado in March 5 2022, never got it, reordered a 23, and now about two months ago was told I must reorder a 2024. I’ve ordered many vehicles in my life, always had great luck with each one I’ve ever ordered til this one. I still own a 92 I ordered from the same dealership 31 years ago, it took about six weeks to arrive. Now I’m retired and waited one last new truck, I’m sure it will be my last but at this point I’m not sure I’m gonna live long enough for it to get built.
I don’t know what changed but their build your own opinion is BS, they abut their customer orders last and are focused on dealer inventory
I agree with you . Dealer inventory takes precedence over customer orders. I asked the dealer to order what I wanted for their inventory and he said the Canyon Denali wasn’t a big seller, even though every dealer that has one, it is already sold. They finally ordered one, but its doesn’t even have a factory build allocation yet and order was put in on March 31, 2023. I’ve lost my desire for a new truck.
Problem up here at least, there isn’t much in the way of dealer inventory either, mostly a few Trail Bosses. When you do a search, most are still ‘in route’. So I’m kind of stuck for options. As an ex employee with a discount, going low mileage used doesn’t make sense. As for a Ranger or Tacoma, again doesn’t make sense financially. Plus I like the Chev better. Frustrating.
I looked at a Ranger. The dealership had it marked up $10k over MSRP. I told him it was a disgrace marking it up that much over invoice. He chirped back, “what do you mean over invoice”. I told him they were ruining the dealership’s reputation and the reputation of Ford and I’d never buy another Ford in my life.
The local GMC says he’s selling their Canyons at about $2k over MSRP which to me is ridiculous. I told him not to be upset when I bring in my new truck to have any warranty work done on it. There’s a dealer 70 miles away that is still offering Canyons at 8% off MSRP. All they currently have on the lot is a Yellow Elevation with no options on it. It’s been sitting awhile. They had several trucks at the end of August but most of them were either black or white and I don’t want either one of those colors. Over the last two weeks they haven’t been listing any new Canyons and everything is in transit except for that yellow Elevation. Only one Denali listed and it’s black. A few AT4’s listed but there’s no options on them. The rest of the trucks listed are Elevations , 2wd and bareboned.
It looks more and more like I’ll have to wait and see if they decide to make any 2024’s and see if these union strikes make them to unaffordable.
I deposited money in July to make order and my dealer says they had to wait for an allotment. One sick process.
I had the 23 Colorado 4×4 ordered since Dec. Paid alot down and GM recieved it in March the Order shows its never been built and 4 wheel drives are at a stand still in production for some reason is what my dealer sent me the message that he recieved. They don’t have much on the lots here .Scarace picking. I’m starting to get a little tired of waiting. Should I get my 35000 I have paid down or what you all think .Buy a different brand.
With utmost respect….why would you put $35000 down to order? Thats a lot of money to tie up. Hope you get your truck or a resolution.
Well thanks four your comment my dealer is a wonderful people to deal with this makes number 6 I bought from them . It’s no problem to get refund he has tried to do everything in his power to take care of me. I on a Colorado before and that’s what we wanted again but may have to go a different route if I can’t get one soon.
I ordered my at4 in April of 23 got it in July list price 50,500. I paid 46,000 . I am a x gm employee. Great truck
Well very Happy for you . My dealer done everything he could to get me . He got a hold of the GM Rep. For this area and said he would do what he could to get me my truck . He brought 2 down to this past Food City 500 race ar Bristol. I got a 2023 4×4 Z71 Sand Doon in color 20 inche wheels loaded . Blacked out as well. Got it for 45000 I’m one happy man we love our new truck . From being a past owner of a Colorado I’m so Happy with this up graded truck and the motor power is unreal. Big shout out to my local dealer Johnson Chevrolet were customers mater.
Seriously all the banter that I’ve read I really wish we knew that GM leader ship all the way to the CEO would read some of these . I work for a company that took complaints extremely seriously.it does not seem too me that GM does.
Can anybody in GM leadep ship? Tell me why it takes six months or more to get a vehicle that you’ve ordered. I ordered mine in the last week of FebruaryI My Canyon Denali is still sitting in Troy Missouri why?
I drove through the third largest GM dealership in red states today and there is not one GMC canyon in the lot anywhere.
So, even when you order one, it’s site unseen, and you never get to test drive it. This is never been the case in years past when you could go to the dealership and drive a new vehicle. I have no clue what’s going on. But somebody’s gotta be held accountable.
I’m in the same boat as you . My dealer has done everything he can try satisfy me. You no its ashame I could go by a different brand like the Ford Ranger they are several of them on them Ford lots but that is not for me. IM A Chevrolet guy . I hope ýou get one soon but my dealer sent a thing from GM that their not producing the 4×4 cause ofsome kind of restraints.
I was going to buy a buick envision,Ford Ranger or GMC Canon Denali and ended up buying Hyundia Santa Fe Calligraphy. After waiting 3 months for delivery I sent an email to the President of Hyundai America. I had a response from the president of hyundia America the next morning informing me that mine was being loaded in 2 days. Great service and response.
Hopefully nobody steals it.
I searched till I found the 2023 Colorado LT I wanted. I found it on a dealers lot 20 miles from home in June. My son liked the new Colorado so much we started looking for a 2023 ZR1 for him, found exactly what he was looking for in Evansville, Indiana, so he drove up from Nashville, TN and picked it up. We’re both very satisfied with all the improvements and features on the 2023.
I work for a Chevrolet Dealership. I special ordered my Colorado ZR2 in July. Unlike some of you, I’ve had the opportunity to test drive both the ZR2 and Trail Boss packages. I even locked myself in the back seat of the ZR2. (Dang child locks)
As much as I wish it were already here, the ZR2 is totally worth the wait.
Does it come with a power passenger seat or is it like the rest of the trims? You pay that much for a vehicle you should be able to get a power passenger seat, even if you just have to pay a little extra.
Doesn’t really matter if they aren’t making any though.
Hello Jerry,
I’m pretty sure the passenger seat is Manual, and I agree with you. But I won’t be riding on that side.
Perhaps some of the future packages will cater to the passenger.
For now, I’m patiently looking forward to the day when I can take delivery.
You’d think they’d want my wife to be a happy camper too 🙂
And if my wife drives the truck, I’d need to adjust the seat.
Other than that, it’s a sweet truck!
