Sunday mornings on the pond. Rocky ascents to reach the sunrise in time. At-home garden renovations. Lakeside camping under the stars. These are all activities that are made better with a 2023 Chevy Colorado or a 2023 Ram 1500 by your side. Which truck is the better option for you?
Our team at Andy Mohr Speedway Chevrolet wants you to get the most out of life, which is why we’ve put together this Chevy Colorado vs. Ram 1500 comparison for all Indianapolis, Fishers, or Speedway drivers. Read on to find your next road companion.
TAILGATE MEASUREMENT TOOL
STANDARD SAFETY SUITE
WIRELESS CONNECTIVITY
You need a truck that’s adaptable. A truck that fits in with the crowd while making a statement. A truck that helps you stay productive even while on the go. With the help of tailgate utility features and driving technologies, the Chevy and the Ram fit the bill.
If you’re looking for the power of choice, both the Chevy and the Ram provide it to you. Both trucks offer a handful of engines to choose from, which means you can find the performance you crave.
Speaking of which, your driving mood may change depending on the day or the activity. To help you adapt, the Colorado has its drive modes system, which includes up to five modes: Normal, Tow/Haul, Off-Road, Terrain, and Baja.
The Ram 1500 has an available Selec-Speed® Control feature, which applies engine torque and brake pressure to keep your drives consistently on various roads. However, it doesn’t have specific modes for different types of terrain.
Need some utility? Both the Chevy and the Ram have available cargo systems! You’ll find integrated tailgate storage on the Colorado and the RamBox® Cargo Management System on the 1500. Although both systems can be used as on-the-go toolboxes, emergency kits, or coolers, they’re located on different parts of the truck.
The Colorado keeps its utility features all in one place: the tailgate! On top of its available storage system, the Chevy has a built-in Tailgate Measurement Tool; so, if you leave your tape measure at home, the Colorado has your back. Unfortunately, the Ram goes without a similar amenity.
Whether you’re splashing through mud on the weekends, kicking up dust at the jobsite, or taking home an aged wine barrel for repurposing, it’s important that you make it home safely. Thanks to driver-assistance features on these trucks, you’ll experience ultimate peace of mind.
Chevy Safety Assist now comes standard on the Chevy Colorado! It includes the following driver assistance:
- Forward Collision Alert
- Automatic Emergency Braking
- Front Pedestrian Braking
- Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning
- Following Distance Indicator
- Intellibeam® auto high beams
The Ram 1500 is available with similar features.
Want even more peace of mind behind the wheel? You can opt for the brand-specific versions of these features on each truck:
- Blind Zone Steering Assist
- Adaptive Cruise Control
Both driving aids will be helpful on unpredictable highways.
The Colorado and the 1500 offer larger-than-life capabilities; so, it’s only natural that their interiors follow suit.
When equipped with the Uconnect® 5 NAV system, the Ram 1500 sports a 12-inch display! However, this screen is only available with an upgrade. If you want to experience that grandness from the jump, choose the Chevy Colorado. This truck makes an 11.3-inch display standard.
Regardless of this difference, both models support wireless Apple CarPlay® and wireless Android Auto™. So, you or one of your buddies who has tagged along can play a song without the hassle of a cord.
It would be great to have eyes in the back of your head. Oh wait, the Chevy Colorado actually does thanks to its best-in-class 10 available camera views! Plus, it has segment-first underbody cameras that provide real-time forward and rear-facing views from beneath the truck. You’ll be navigating tough turf and rocky trails like a pro.
While the Ram 1500 has its own slew of trailering technologies, it goes without a comparable camera system designed to give you a confident driving experience.
Ready to enjoy all that Indianapolis, Fishers, or Speedway has to offer? If so, we recommend choosing the 2023 Chevy Colorado as your companion. We believe its additional capabilities, standard safety suite, and advanced technologies will bolster all your future adventures.
