2020 Chevrolet Colorado Xtreme Packs A 455-HP Supercharged V6

After showing off its1,000-hp Camaro Convertible, Specialty Vehicle Engineering has turned its attention to theChevrolet Colorado. Say hello to the 2020 Chevrolet Colorado Xtreme, a modern-day homage to the popularChevrolet S-10Xtreme sports truck from the 1990s.

Available for crew cab or extended cab models, the Colorado Xtreme is powered by a 3.6-liter V6 cranked up to 455 horsepower and 425 ft-lb of torque, which utilizes SVE's in-house developed centrifugal supercharger with a unique head unit that features a planetary drive assembly as opposed to a traditional gear drive assembly that can spin up to 90,000 rpm with no supercharger whine.

This eliminates power lag, providing smooth drivability and a linear power band that increases power all the way up to 6,400 rpm. SVE's air-to-water intercooler system also minimizes heat soak to maintain optimal power at all times. Other upgrades include a composite Xtreme engine cover, body-color painted fog lamp surrounds with body-color painted grille and black bowtie emblem, a custom dual exhaust, and reworked suspension lowers the Colorado Xtreme by two inches at the front and five inches at the rear.

The 2020 Chevrolet Colorado Xtreme rides on 20-inch five-spoke wheels available in satin black or gloss black wrapped in Michelin 275/45R20 Pilot Sport PS2S performance tires.
