valve Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Needs a more aggressive/rugged looking "face". Too soft looking using the corporate "face" from the other models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbone Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Not terrible by any means, but definitely has a soft appearance. It seems to me that Americans like a more squared off look to their trucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92merc Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 I think it looks fairly decent. Has the corporate nose. They only thing I find funny looking is the rear tail lights. Looks like angry eyes to me with that top sloping angle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-dubz Posted June 17, 2020 Author Share Posted June 17, 2020 It’s based off of the Isuzu D Max, which looks like this. I usually like Mazda interiors, but the Isuzu’s interior looks better to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latest D-Max and BT-50 use a new platform, Isuzu Dynamic Drive, that differs from the one used by Colorado/Canyon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bzcat Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 (edited) The Asian version of Colorado (both Chevy and Holden versions) is based on the previous gen D-Max. The US version was re-engineered extensively by GM and only loosely resemble the D-Max based version. They actually share very little - different chassis, different cab (wider and longer), different drivetrain. In a handful of South American markets, GM actually sell both versions side by side. The smaller/narrower Asian version goes by the name Chevrolet D-Max and the bigger wider GM version goes by the name of Colorado or S 10.
