CarGurus Analysis: 2021 Chevrolet Colorado

Summary
With 292 currently listed for sale near Indianapolis, IN and an average price of $22,296, 29.8% of 2021 Chevrolet Colorados for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2021 Chevrolet Colorado 4.58 / 5 stars.
91.1% of 2021 Colorado models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2021 Chevrolet Colorado stands out as a midsize pickup that offers a strong mix of capability and everyday usability. It sits in the second generation, where Chevrolet gave the truck a broad range of powertrains and trims, and the lineup’s strengths are concentrated in the mid-range and higher-spec models. Buyers looking for a Colorado in this year get a truck that is generally considered a solid companion and a good value for the money, with the added appeal of more performance and brawn than the base versions.
For 2021, the Colorado’s appeal is tied to its available equipment and versatility. The W.T. trim serves as the entry point, while the L.T. adds features such as an 8-inch touchscreen and the E.Z. Lift & Lower tailgate. The Z71 brings an off-road suspension package, automatic locking rear differential, skid plates, unique wheels with all-terrain tires, automatic climate control, driver power lumbar control, and wireless charging. At the top, the ZR2 adds serious off-road hardware, including Multimatic DSSV Damping System, increased ground clearance and track width, and larger 265/65R17 all-terrain tires. The diesel option is also notable in this generation for its 7,700-pound towing capacity and up to 31 mpg on the highway, though the truck’s reliability record is weakened by recurring transmission issues in models built from 2014 to 2019 and even a few later ones.
Owners also tend to value the 2021 Colorado for its features and performance, especially in the Z71 and ZR2 models. Reviewers commonly praise its value, ride quality, and decent gas mileage. At the same time, some drivers point to a harsh ride, cabin noise, and limited back-seat comfort, which keeps the Colorado from feeling fully polished despite its strengths.

The Zr2 is a beast. The engine in off road mode has a lot of power and the front and rear lockers make it very off road capable . I’ve been very happy with it.

Drives smooth, acceleration is a little laggy and the turn radius isn’t the best. Phone doesn’t fit wireless charger anything above an iPhone 8 will not fit in the charging pad.

Owners rate it 4.58/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
The user feedback also points to a truck that many owners find dependable in day-to-day use, with praise centered on value and performance over time. At the same time, the recurring concerns around ride harshness, cabin noise, and rear-seat comfort suggest you should focus on how the truck has aged overall, not just how it feels on a short test drive. For used buyers, that means long-term ownership risk is best managed by checking maintenance history carefully and prioritizing well-kept examples.
What should I look for when buying a used 2021 Chevrolet Colorado?
Accident-free inventory is solid at 76.1% — always verify the vehicle history report.
You should still run a history report on any truck you’re considering, even if the listing looks clean at first glance. Put inspection priority on signs of prior damage, uneven wear, and overall condition, especially if the truck has been used for towing or off-road driving. It also makes sense to focus on how the cabin and suspension have held up, since comfort and ride quality are common owner talking points.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2021 Chevrolet Colorado?
This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently and still find worthwhile listings.
- Deal availability: 30.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 3,134 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 6.94% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 76.1% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $25,157, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2021 Chevrolet Colorado's resale value?
The current average of $25,304 sits slightly below last year's $27,190.
That softer pricing suggests the truck has become more approachable for buyers, but it also means future sellers may not see the same pricing strength they would have a year ago. If you buy well and keep the truck in strong condition, you can help protect your exit value later. The current market also shows that buyers are still willing to shop this model year, which supports a steadier resale outlook than a truck with weak demand.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.58/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2021 Chevrolet Colorado or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2021 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2021 if:
- 30.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Accident-free inventory is solid at 76.1% — always verify the vehicle history report.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 6.94% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.58/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
The bottom line:
The 2021 is a smart primary choice if you want a midsize pickup with strong owner satisfaction, decent inventory, and a market that has eased from last year. If your main goal is to minimize upfront cost, you can also consider nearby years and compare condition, pricing, and history report results closely before deciding.
