Our verdict

7.5 / 10

The 2025 Colorado is GM's most capable midsize pickup in the Gulf — all four-wheel-drive, packing a turbocharged 2.7-litre four that punches harder than many V6s. The Trail Boss and ZR2 trims arrive with genuine desert and wadi credentials at a price well below a Hilux or Ranger Raptor. Cabin quality has taken a big step forward with the new-generation interior, though ride comfort and fuel economy on sand tracks will remind you this is still an American working truck.

Who it's for — UAE buyers who want an affordable, capable 4WD pickup for weekend off-roading or commercial use and don't need three rows — the Trail Boss and ZR2 are the sweet spots.

PROS

  • +310 hp turbo engine beats most midsize rivals and tows up to 3,493 kg
  • +Trail Boss and ZR2 off-road credentials with factory lift and locking diff
