IIHS Frontal Offset Crash Test
The Chevrolet Colorado was introduced in the 2004 model year as replacement for the Chevrolet S10. The test was conducted with an Extended Cab model.
 
Overall Evaluation: Good
Structure / Safety Cage: Good
Injury Measures:
Measures taken from the head, neck, and chest indicate low risk of injuries to these body regions in a crash of this severity. Forces on both tibias and the left foot indicate that lower leg and foot injuries would be possible.
 
Head / Neck: Good
Chest: Good
Leg / Foot (left): Acceptable
Leg / Foot (right): Acceptable
Restraints / Dummy Kinematics: Acceptable
Dummy movement was well controlled. After the dummy moved forward into the airbag, it rebounded into the seat without its head coming close to any stiff structure that could cause injury. However, there was too much upward movement of the steering wheel.
