All trim levels of the 2025 Chevy Colorado get a price increase for the model year, with pricing previously uncovered by GM Authority. For the three trim levels that can get the Midnight Edition package, the Trail Boss starts at $41,395, the Z71 starts $45,395, and the ZR2 starts at $51,195, while all three feature standard four-wheel drive.

    3. People want to build the 2025 Colorado on Chevrolet.com but it’s not working and it’s almost February. Does anyone not see why Toyota keeps gains gaining ground?

    1. 20in wheels have been an option for the TrailBoss since this gen of Colorado has been out.

    1. Your not kidding! It especially looks terrible on vehicles like Buick’s, Cadillacs and Lincolns or the foreign equivalents like Acura, Lexus, Genesis etc. The fact that this has become so invasive on so many vehicles is very depressing and one of multiple reasons we are in Malaise era II. I don’t have an issue making it an option but never should it be std equipment with no way to change it!

  5. the blacker it is, the dirtier it looks.

  6. This is and has been the most stupidest idea GM has ever came up with, it looks dirty all the time and is outdated already, if GM has to have this let it be an option and then they will see how low the buyers will be, don’t just expect the rest of us want this, and one more thing make more room in the cabin by getting rid of that outdated shifter in the console and give this small truck better fuel economy without making it a full EV.

  7. GM would not be offering the special black editions if there was no demand.
    I saw a new Silverado with blackout trim and red emblems, including red letters on the tailgate. It looked great IMO.

  8. The Chevy RS package used to replace chrome with black trim, it was sportier in terms of suspension, performance and styling cues without spending a fortune. SUV’s and Trucks use the midnight black package or RST to blackout trim and wheels and markup prices without much useful content. High Country isn’t worth the cost, its benefits don’t justify the extra price increase. $30k – $40k is the sweet spot for middle class consumers. The days of $70-80k trucks and SUV’s are numbered. Incomes can’t keep up, that’s why the new Trax is selling so well. A loaded midsize truck shouldn’t be much more than $40k or buyers will buy a full sized truck.

    1. That $40k full size is going to be a step above a work truck. Not comparable in terms of features to a $40k midsize.
