You are correct about the engine sizing. The Tahoe / Yukon / Escalade triplets used a 6.0L instead of a 5.3L. This is because they were engineered with Atkinson Cycle operation that closes the intake valves later than usual. This usually results in lower power and torque for same sized engines, so GM executed this on the larger displacement, higher output 6.0L in order to recover the power and torque to the usual 5.3L levels.

anyone know anything about what might be on the 2020 Colorado/Canyon refresh? Specifically if it will be getting the 10 spd transmission as an option for the V6, sunroof, or any other upgrades. I have search the web hard, but haven't found anything specific, or even when announcements will be made by GM.
hoping some of our "in the know" may have some information. thanks |

Nothing as of yet. We just started seeing 2020 Equinox/Terrain MCEs being tested so it's possible we just haven't spotted the midsize trucks. That being said, Colorado is still outperforming newer rivals in comparisons. Hopefully GM hasn't decided to just rest on their laurels as a result.

At this point, I'm starting to think we aren't going to get anything new in the mid-size twins for 2020, and maybe we'll see something in 2021, or GM really is just going to keep doing minor updates until they roll out the 3rd gen in a few years. The 2019 got some decent (although minor, but needed) updates which is great. I'd love to see a facelift and/or an interior change, but at the same time I still think the current trucks are competitive, and in many ways, better than the competition. If GM feels the same, we may not get an MCE at all this generation.

Thanks guys, appreciate all the information. I am really needing a mid size truck, and the whole issue with the GM Transmission with the V6 makes me super hesitant (class action suit). I won't be in the market till summer, so still a little time to see if anything shakes out. The 10 spd would be a no-brainer. Again, thanks guys!!

But yeah...if they did introduce the 10-spd, it would be great. I really like my 2015 a lot, and recently drove a 2018 as a loaner for a day and the new engine/8 speed combo drove great and noticeably had more pep than mine does. Its a damn shame the TC issues are putting a damper on an otherwise great truck.

And I also know that not everyone experiences the problem, as we know when people are happy with their rides, they are less likely to find/post on forums for assistance. So I understand that also. |
