Comparison Review

Comfort
The Chevrolet Colorado offers passengers in its extended cab about the same head- and legroom as the GMC Canyon. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between the Chevrolet Colorado and the GMC Canyon.

Convenience
The Chevrolet Colorado requires fewer stops at the gas station than the GMC Canyon, making it more convenient to drive.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Clearly, the Chevrolet Colorado is a better financial choice over the GMC Canyon, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Chevrolet Colorado is much wider than the GMC Canyon, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. When looking at overall length, the Chevrolet Colorado takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the GMC Canyon.

Performance
In terms of towing capacity, the GMC Canyon is clearly the choice over the Chevrolet Colorado for pulling heavy loads. When it comes to horsepower, the Chevrolet Colorado is clearly outclassed by the GMC Canyon.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Chevrolet Colorado does a much better job of transmitting the horsepower of the engine to the wheels than the GMC Canyon.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit the same number of people in the Chevrolet Colorado as you will the GMC Canyon. You'll be able to fit about the same amount of lumber or gardening supplies into the bed of the Chevrolet Colorado as you will with the GMC Canyon.
