2016 Holden Colorado Z71 launched

Holden’s Colorado pick-up is getting a new range-topping trim grade. Based on the existing LTZ 4x4 Crew Cab model, it borrows the Z71 moniker from fellow GM brand Chevrolet.

Identifying features include a front nudge bar, roof rails, 18” gunmetal-coloured alloy wheels, a ‘sailplane’ mounted on the cargo box and a soft tonneau cover.

Inside, the extra specification comprises leather upholstery and heated front seats.

Deliveries of the Colorado Z71 are due to begin next month.

Carbon dioxide emissions are only 98 g/km, a level that brings numerous benefits for UK drivers including zero road tax, a full discount on the London Congestion Charge and qualification for the lowest company car benefit-in-kind rate. Fuel economy is also decent and, according to the official figures, a TwinAir-powered MiTo will manage 67.3 mpg (4.2 l/100km) on the combined cycle.
