CarGurus Analysis: 2018 Chevrolet Colorado
Summary
With 21 currently listed for sale and an average price of $21,772, 19.0% of 2018 Chevrolet Colorado listings on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2018 Chevrolet Colorado 4.5 / 5 stars.

Why it stands out
The 2018 Chevrolet Colorado stands out as a midsize pickup that balances everyday usability with real truck capability. It is part of the second generation, which brought a more modern design, stronger engine choices, and a broader spread of trims and body styles than the original Colorado. For buyers who want a truck that is easier to live with than a full-size pickup, the Colorado’s smaller footprint is a major part of its appeal, and owners often praise its compact size, smooth ride, and easy driving manners.
For 2018, the Colorado’s strengths are especially clear in its available powertrains and utility. The lineup includes rear-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive configurations, and the truck can be equipped with a 3.6-liter V6 or a 2.8-liter Duramax Diesel engine. The diesel is the standout for towing, with up to 7,700 pounds of capacity, and it also delivers up to 31 mpg on the highway. The Colorado also offers practical bed and cab choices, along with useful touches like the two-level tailgate and bed pockets designed to help carry a 4x8 sheet of plywood over the wheel wells.
The 2018 Colorado is not without drawbacks. The source notes that the second generation has had transmission issues, especially in early models, and that the truck’s active safety feature set was not as broad as some rivals in this era. Even so, it remains a strong used-truck choice because it offers a good balance of performance, brawn, and value, especially in the mid-range and higher trims.

2018 Z71, Crew Cab, Very nice truck overall. The V6 has plenty of power. Also, it has plenty of towing capacity. The fit and finish are quite nice, for the price. Apple Car Play is amazing. I was surprised that it didnt have push-button start. It is much more nimble and easy to park than my full size pickup it replaced. I would highly recommend this for anyone who wants the utility of a truck, but doesnt need or have room for a full size model.

Is the 2018 Chevrolet Colorado a good car?
Yes — the 2018 Chevrolet Colorado earns a 4.5/5 user rating, which points to strong owner satisfaction. Owners commonly praise its smooth ride, decent gas mileage, good power, towing capacity, compact size, and easy driving manners. That makes it a practical fit if you want a midsize pickup that is easier to live with than a full-size truck while still delivering real truck utility. With 32.7% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have a decent chance of finding a competitive price.
Is the 2018 Chevrolet Colorado reliable?
Owners rate it 4.5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
User feedback highlights that many owners find it solid, dependable, and recommended for utility and nimbleness. At the same time, some drivers mention mechanical issues, so long-term ownership risk is best managed by focusing on maintenance records and a careful pre-purchase inspection.
What should I look for when buying a used 2018 Chevrolet Colorado?
At 62.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should run a vehicle history report before you commit, then prioritize a thorough inspection of body panels, frame areas, and repair quality. Because some owners have raised concerns about mechanical issues, pay close attention to how the truck drives, shifts, and responds under load. A clean service history and a careful test drive matter more here than a quick glance at the odometer.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2018 Chevrolet Colorado?
This is a moderate buyer’s market, so you can be selective without waiting forever.
- Deal availability: 32.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 2,293 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 6.85% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 62.3% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $20,410, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2018 Chevrolet Colorado's resale value?
The current average of $20,410 sits slightly below last year's $21,912.
That price movement suggests the truck has softened enough to help you buy more carefully, but it also means future resale gains may be more gradual. If you keep mileage reasonable and maintain the truck well, you can help protect value when it is time to sell. Demand should remain supported by the Colorado’s practical size and broad appeal among used-truck shoppers.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2018 Chevrolet Colorado or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2018 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2018 if:
- 32.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 62.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 6.85% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2019 if:
- At $21,272, the 2019 costs more than the current year's $20,410 average.
- It leans into a simpler, more capability-focused formula with available diesel and ZR2 appeal.
The bottom line: You should start with the 2018 if you want the better value and a wider pool of listings to compare. If you are willing to pay more for a newer model year and prefer its slightly more focused capability story, the 2019 is the secondary path worth considering.
