2016 Chevrolet Colorado (facelift) debuts in ASEAN markets

Features a revised front-end and new interior.

The production-spec 2016 Chevrolet Colorado has made its debut in Thailand, following its premiere as a near-production concept at the 2016 Bangkok International Motor Show in March.

As seen in the Chevrolet Colorado Xtreme concept at the said motor show, the facelifted Colorado receives a new face that draws cues from Colorado sold in the U.S. Some of the new features include sleeker headlamps with LED DRLs, wider grille and a new bumper design with round foglamps.

Inside, the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado gets an all new dashboard design that, according to Chevrolet, is trimmed refined, soft-touch materials for a premium experience. It features an 8 inch MyLink infotainment display with support for Apple CarPlay, slightly updated instrument cluster and silver trim around the central HVAC vents and piano black trim around the gear selector.
