I bought the 21 ZR2 with the Bison Package. Looks even more bad-ass with meatier skins and custom badges and embroidery inside. 2" factory lift, wide wheel stance with extended flairs and loads of custom skid plates. Love it.
The only thing missing is the Diesel! AEV does it right with the Bison. My AEV JEEP has 213,000 miles on it and still looks and rides incredible.
I have a white 21 zr2. I am a lifelong Chevy man. Incredibly capable, bold 4-wheeling system from the factory. Lockers, lift, satisfactory tires. It climbs like a billy goat. It’s a baby monster truck, which is good. It’s not too heavy or long or wide or as top-heavy as a super-lifted status symbol. I love it. Buy it and add to or change it how you want, but it is bad-to-the-bone from the showroom floor. Best, complete 4x4 Chevy has ever put out. Dannnnnng! DTM
Gorgeous truck. I roll in a 2005 Colorado w/ 95000 miles on it. Just had it fully serviced at my local Chevy dealership. Saw these new ZR2's and the 4 banger, diesel 🦬 Bison over there. Dreaming of these, don't have enough to pull the trigger on the financing. Thanks for the interesting overview.
This truck is so bad ass! Great review!
Thanks for watching Smitty!
Absolutely love the Zr2. Just wish the rear slider was power and they offered a moon roof/sun roof and fog lights without having to add the Bison package.
Thanks for the video! If Chevy ever figures out how to add a splash of color to their interiors to brighten things up a bit, I might actually like one enough to trade next time. I do hate the interior and the new front end still hasn't grown on me yet, but maybe one day it will. Otherwise, I love the zr2! Thanks again for showing it to us.
You're welcome Mike, thanks for watching!
Inside the tuck needs a big make over.
the color I picked for my 2021 LT long box w/ tow pack & G80 locker.
Solid purchase, hope it's treating you well!
Now I wish id waited to buy this one. I got the 2018 ZR2 ..and I LOVE it...but would like this one..
Beautiful truck. I hope one day I can afford one of those.
"Affordability" is relative. ;-)
I expect to get a ZR2 ("Sand Dune Metallic" color) next month (March)...not that I can "afford" the price if I had to pay it up-front, but sure can afford the payt's (especially with a healthy down-payment from selling my 2016 Honda Pilot).
That works for me! :-)
Besides, I HAVE to get a ZR2: I'm in CO and I was told it's THE LAW here. ;-)

Me too. However as trucks go nowdays it's not even crazy expensive. I know blue collar guys spending 40, 68, even 82k on freakin trucks (full size platinum editions etc). This one stickers 45 but you could probably get it for 40. I totally agree though cars in general are a huge sticker shock nowdays. all the environmental regulations are to blame, all to save almost no miles per gallon (my 08 truck gets ~20 a gallon, and the 2021's get about the same)
I love how amazing the Zr2 look but honestly would never use the off road capability. I saw a used 2016 4wd 6 cylinder (no ZR2 of course) with IIRC ~50k miles on carvana for 20k. More my price range. Extended cab rather than crew cab but I can live with that, and it would have all the capabilities I need to drive the occasional icy road we get around here in East Texas winter.
@@cryengine_x I'm only going to be using the ZR2's off-road capability occasionally, and only in some situations. MOST driving with be around town, then some log-weekend road trips. I'll use 4x4 MORE up here in CO, but LESS in TX. Still, it's nice to have in case you DO need it...rather than not having it available at all, yes?
First, a real/true 4x4 -- not to be confused with my Pilot's AWD, as excellent as Honda's iVTM4 (aka: Acura SH-AWD) system is -- will be better in snow on the roads (pavement), especially deeper snow we sometimes get after a blizzard. Not to mention snow on the off-road trails/forest roads we have almost everywhere in CO. And, when it's really bad out there in the city on a particular "snow day," drive around and help people who are stuck (like lots of 4x4 owners do here) -- as I did with my Pilot. If I were back in West Texas (ELP), however -- where I might be in 3-4 years -- I couldn't use the "snow excuse" card. :-(
Secondly, I want to do some of the many mountain passes (11,000+ feet -- CO has over 50 peaks that are 14K or higher) we have here in CO, where some parts of said passes my Pilot couldn't handle (and I'd have to turn around and go back). Even back in West TX though, I could use true 4x4 out in the desert/hills: I've taken my Pilot places it shouldn't (!) be going, so I again saw I really needed a "serious" 4x4 even in the outback there. And mot passes have signed posted: "High clearance 4x4 vehicles only" (not AWD).
As the ZR2 does BOTH off-road and on-road very well, I'm covered...
Besides, the Bronco STILL isn't out yet, and the Jeeps, well they have mixed reviews on reliability (for YEARS now), and both bronco & Jeep can only tow 3500lbs (not enough for MY needs).
As it's now (3-3-21), I should have my ZR2 by the middle of the month...or earlier (it's up to how fast my car-buying-concierge guy can find it). Already have an offer from CarMax on my Pilot, and 2 lenders (1 bank & 1 credit union, out of 3 banks and 3 credit unions) are in the wings waiting to finance the rest at a very good (IMO) APR. Then I do accelerated pay'ts and pay it off early -- sounds like a good plan! ;-)
So now I just wait for "my guy" to find one -- in Sand Dune Metallic color, of course! But no "Sports Bar & Lights," thank you!
Happy Trails,

P.S. Talking about "things to live with" as you mentioned, the ZR2 doesn't check ALL my boxes, either (like no push-button start)...but what it DOES give me, I CAN live with the misses. Besides, there are always trade-offs in life re: MANY things...I just try to get the most Pros and least Cons -- at an "affordable" price -- as the "perfect whatever" doesn't exist (for most of us).
BTW, am keeping my ZR2 mostly STOCK...for me, it's fine they way it is. NO interest in larger tires, higher lift, etc. PERHAPS a bed-rack/rooftop tent, AND rear shock-mount skid plates (as they hang-down REALLY low!), but otherwise, just stock.
Same! The 2020 model in back as a Zr2 / Zr2 Bison maybe in 2031.
@@billredding2000 did you get it? Got mine in sand dune in February. Love it. Got a good deal because the manager at the dealership used it as a demo and only put 600 miles on it
hopefully getting the 2022 version of this tomorrow
The ‘blow through’ bow tie has been dubbed the ‘Flow-Tie’ starting with the 2014 Z28.
It is awesome truck
I hope chevy will bring ZR2 into Korea because we only have Z71
How do I turn off the school notice chime on the info sysytem ?
Does the Z71 also come in the same color and have optional locking differentials I see little benefit of the glitzy nick nacks rocker protection is nice a a former snowplow truck driver I can see it's size could be advantageous in overlanding and the Z71 has more capacity how much is the diesel upgrade 45 k naa not much dollars but maybe a z71
What is the difference between ice metallic and steel grey?
is this the same color as the satin steel metallic on the silverados ?
Nice truck
Thanks for watching Kevin, glad you like it!
That truck is so beautiful I like it man. Where is the dealership in?
Looks great but I need the Midnight one.
450 mile range is impressive!
Nice/ silver n black for me
Why is there a big empty button in between the music skip & back buttons? What use to be there?
where hazard button used to be
Idk why Chevy didn’t give us the option to have the 5.3 v8 in this off-road goat. With that engine plus it’s off-road capability and aggressive looks this thing would rip! I have the 5.3 v8 in my 2005 Colorado so I know they can.
Too big for the chassis
한국에도 들여왔으면 좋겠어요 ㅠ,ㅠ
You can swap out that shifter with a Buick Invision one. Looks pretty damn good.
Has a fellow SeaDoo owner, I just want to remind you that the season is just around the corner! haha thanks for watching!
@@martysgmcmartyschevy not here! Ahhh
So will the new Blazer shifters.
That price is out of hand. Let’s reel it in guys.
yeah its more than i paid for my 2019 silverado RST v8 4x4 crew cab
@@xXJBrutalXx With a ZR2 you're paying for the infamous multimatic DSSV suspension as well as the front and rear locking diffs, two things no other truck offers.
Any crash avoidance systems for teen drivers?
Lol no im 17 and I have one. No safety features at all. Just a pure truck
Cool✌️
Vous êtes où je suis àMontreal.
Dear Santa...
Tell him to bring me one too....
I love my 2020 Colorado like the new color but can’t stand that front in of the 2021
WANT
Did Chevy fixed those 8 speed transmission ? Ive heard horror stories about it on earlier models.
A long time ago they did.
-- BR
No they’re still junk they put them in the Silverado till 2020 when they went with the new 10 speed don’t be fooled
I got rid of my 2018 because it was terrible. Other than the transmission the truck is awesome!
@@pagodad2036 Right NOW, my only choices (as said) are the ZR2, Jeep Wrangler Rubicon/Gladiator Rubicon or Ford Bronco (still not HERE yet). So by default, it's GOT to be a ZR2. Kind of "by default." In a few years? Who knows what OTHER choices we'll have.
So, I can only HOPE they finally (3 years later after yours!) put a GOOD transmission in my soon-to-be-purchased 2021 Chevy Colorado ZR2 (again, in Sand Dune Metallic color of course!)...but just in case the transmissions are STILL trouble (if so, GM should be CLASS-ACTION SUED for that!), will be looking into getting a GOOD extended-warranty plan, either from GM or aftermarket, like Car Shield or such. ;-)
But you know, I can always sell/trade it in just before the OEM 3-year/36K miles (60 months/60K miles on drive-train) warranty is up and get a 2024/2025 ZR2 -- IF it has behaved itself and had no serious issues -- since by then (I've read) the current V6 gas engine will be gone (as of 2023?) and it'll have a new engine (4cyl turbo) with more torque, and possibly better gas MPG, a real problem with the ZR2 presently on the highway for road trips. DO I want a turbo engine? Not really, but that's the way the mid-sized vehicle power-plants are going: Dumping the V6 and going turbo-4, whether we like/want it or not -- just like them PUSHING pushing EVs (I do NOT want ANY electric vehicle!). And no, I don't want a diesel engine, either.
...but that's THEN, not now!
So I repeat: I HOPE my 2021 ZR2 serves me well...if not, we'll see what OTHER 4x4 off-road (but good on the highway also, as if the ZR2 is over Jeep and possibly even the "still not here yet" Ford Bronco!) GAS vehicles are available on the market come 2024/2025.

@@billredding2000 (Slow claps) well said ol chap.....well said!
They all look the same 😏 from 15 to 21
Nice looking but why is a V6 only getting 18 miles per gallon? There are V8s getting better than that.
This truck is definitely one of the best on paper, but the reliability and price is a major issue.
your right on the reliability, my 21 zr2 is back at the dealers every 2 weeks. very poorly made.
@@davidsutliffe8443 sorry to hear that.
@@davidsutliffe8443 Have GM buy it back then!
Still, for every person who has issue with their vehicle -- regardless of brand -- MANY MORE owners of the same vehicle do not.
All we can do is get what we want and hope for the best....and maybe get a very good extended warranty if we're going to keep it more than 3 years, yes?
In my case, the other 2 4x4 vehicles I was looking at was Jeep (WORSE reliability?) and the "still not out yet" Ford Bronco. Am going with the ZR2, for better or worse. ;-)
-- BR
This is one of the ugliest trucks Chevrolet ever made
@@billredding2000 i wish they would buy it back. its just not that simple
It's called "flowtie"
Go back to the Bow Tie front, develop new headlights, and for God sake get a new interior! Then it would be great.
The projection type light s suck balls the 2018 I currently have has far superior lights for night driving.
46k truck and no changes to the interior, mostly plastic, and no power rear sliding window.
Small truck? Really? It's not a half ton it's a midsized, that doesn't mean it's small loll!!!
Ya, looks nice on the outside,but watch out on the mechanicals,JUNK!!!!
The rear shock design.. turn me off..
