Remember this delightfully over-the-top Chevy Colorado "rally concept" from 2011? Rumor has it that GM might be blowing the dust off these drawings and pondering a Raptor-fighting off-road variant of the 2015 Colorado and GMC Canyon.
According to GM Authority's sources: "the new line of mid-size pickups is on track to offer an aggressive off-road variant equal to that of the Ford Raptor, but in a smaller (read: lighter) package."
So they're talking about something much beastlier than the "Z71" package which features more aggressive tires, Rancho shocks and a few skid plates. GM Authority seems to think a hard-core Colorado and Canyon would revive the "ZR2" badge from the old Chevy S-10 off-road trim.
