Although it really is an off-road truck, it offers the best of both worlds as it is comfortable to drive around the city also. The vehicle is loaded with certain exclusive features like Multimatic Shocks and front and rear electronic locking differentials.

It comes in the prize range of $20,955 to $42,620. The off-road technology allows you to seamlessly pick any kind of terrain, be it dessert, mountain or marshy areas.

The ZR2 has a 3.5-inch wider stack as compared to its predecessors. This provides a much greater stability, especially in rocky and mountain terrain.
