Chevrolet appears to be one of the busiest automakers at this year’s SEMA Show, with the company paying special attention to its pickup trucks.
Besides the Colorado Performance and Silverado High Desert concepts, Chevrolet is also showcasing two pickup trucks aimed at outdoor sports enthusiasts: the Colorado Nautique and Silverado Polaris ACE+ studies. While the former is paired with the Super Air Nautique 210 wakeboard boat, the latter is combined with the Polaris ACE single-seat, sit-in off-road vehicle.
The Chevrolet Colorado, the Nautique boat and its trailer share the same custom orange metallic flake paint scheme, with the truck and trailer riding on matching 18-inch Chevrolet Accessories wheels.
The Super Air Nautique 210 is powered by the ZR 450 Pleasurecraft Marine Engine Group, allowing it to generate a wake strong enough for wakeboarding at lower speeds.
For those whose idea of fun involves off-road trails, the Chevrolet Silverado ACE+ concept is a tempting proposition. Based on the production 2015 Silverado 1500 crew cab with the Z71 Off-Road package, the truck’s bed can accommodate the new 48-inch wide Polaris ACE.
The Silverado Polaris ACE+ concept rides on 22-inch Chevrolet Accessories aluminum wheels shod with 33-inch–by-12.5-inch off-road tires, while concept fender flares enhance the truck’s rugged appearance. Additional exterior features include a concept bed-mounted sports bar with custom LED lighting and a concept front nudge bar.
The black exterior with blacked-out trim is accented with graphics coordinated with the Polaris ACE. The concept truck is powered by the 355hp 5.3-liter V8 engine enhanced with concept air-induction and exhaust systems. A concept Brembo brake package with 16-inch slotted front rotors matched with six-piston calipers and high-performance brake pads completes the package.
