Small overlap front: passenger-side
Tested vehicle: 2019 Chevrolet Colorado LT Crew Cab
Rating applies to 2015-22 models
The Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon Crew Cab were redesigned for the 2015 model year after a two-year absence from the market. Although the structure was reinforced starting with the 2017 model year on the driver side to improve occupant protection in small overlap frontal crashes, no such changes were made on the passenger side.
