Toyota Tacoma vs. Chevy Colorado: Which Truck Prevails in New Holland, PA?

Midsize trucks are ideal for getting around Lancaster, PA because they're a breeze to park and maneuver. They also have strong towing and hauling capabilities for work and recreation. The Toyota Tacoma has all the power you need, and it's available in a variety of configurations to suit your preferences. The Chevy Colorado is also a tough midsize pickup, but it can't match the versatility of the Tacoma. At New Holland Toyota, we strive to arm you with all the information you require to choose the right truck, so we developed the following comparison of these two pickups.

Performance

Engines

The Toyota Tacoma offers a choice of three engines to get the power or efficiency you desire. Its i-Force Max hybrid powertrain generates a combined 326 horsepower, enabling effortless merging onto highways in Reading, PA.

The Chevy Colorado only has one engine - a 310 horsepower four-cylinder engine.

Fuel Efficiency

With constantly fluctuating gas prices, many Ephrata drivers prefer going as far as possible before refueling. The Toyota Tacoma earns an estimated 23 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway when equipped with its base engine and rear-wheel drive.

The Chevy Colorado returns 19 mpg in the city and 24 mpg on the highway with its most efficient configuration.

Off-Roading Options

If you enjoy hitting the trails outside Lititz, the Toyota Tacoma has you covered. With eight available trim levels, including four off-roading specialists, you're sure to find a Tacoma model that satisfies your cravings for adventure.

The Chevy Colorado comes in five trim levels, and only three of them are off-road oriented trims.

Interior

Cab Options

The Toyota Tacoma lets you choose between a two-door, four-seat XtraCab and a four-door, five-seat Double Cab. If you only need seating for four, an XtraCab could be a thriftier option.

The Chevy Colorado is only available in a Crew Cab configuration with seating for five.

Bed Sizes

Lancaster drivers who frequently haul construction supplies or furniture in varying lengths will like the Toyota Tacoma's available 5-foot and 6-foot bed lengths.

The Chevy Colorado only offers one 5-foot bed option.

Interior Quality

The Toyota Tacoma has a modern cabin with high-quality materials and easy-to-use physical controls. An available heated, leather-trimmed steering wheel feels good in your hands on chilly days in Thorndale.

The Chevy Colorado has a well-thought-out interior, but there is too much hard black plastic trim - which picks up fingerprints and smudges. The Colorado offers a heated steering wheel option, but it's not leather trimmed.

Safety

Your safety is always a crucial consideration, and the Toyota Tacoma shines at protecting your well-being. Careful New Holland drivers will appreciate that the 2025 Tacoma earned a Top Safety Pick rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

The Chevy Colorado received a marginal rating in the moderate overlap test, preventing it from becoming a Top Safety Pick in IIHS evaluations.

Resale Value

You may not be concerned with this now, but down the road you may want to re-sell your truck or trade it in for a newer one. Year after year, the Toyota Tacoma continually has best-in-class resale value.

The Chevy Colorado has a slightly less-than-average track record for retaining its value.
