Selling an i-290 privately means listing a small pickup, explaining to callers why an Isuzu looks like a Colorado, letting strangers test-drive it from your driveway and waiting for their payment to clear. With us, one appointment wraps it up.
How much is my Isuzu i-290 worth?
We value your i-290 on its model year, mileage and condition first, using live market data and what we are paying for compact pickups today rather than a third-party price guide. There is less variety than on most trucks, since every i-290 has the 185-horsepower 2.9-liter four-cylinder, an extended cab with a six-foot bed and rear-wheel drive. That puts more emphasis on how the truck has been used: a lightly used pickup usually brings more than one that has worked hard. Trim and transmission come next. The LS, offered only for 2007, generally appeals to more buyers than the plainer S, especially with the four-speed automatic. Mention any bed liner, hitch or aftermarket parts so they are part of the valuation. Our page on how we calculate your offer explains each step.
What should I know about the Isuzu i-290?
The Isuzu i-290 is a compact pickup sold in the United States for the 2007 and 2008 model years only. It was the four-cylinder half of Isuzu's i-Series, which had launched for 2006 and was renamed when the engines were upgraded for 2007. The trucks were built by General Motors and are Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickups with Isuzu grilles and badges. Alongside the Ascender SUV, the i-Series was the last vehicle Isuzu sold here before it ended U.S. passenger-vehicle sales in January 2009.
Power comes from a 2.9-liter inline four-cylinder rated at 185 horsepower, through a standard five-speed manual or an optional four-speed automatic. The i-290 was offered only as an extended cab with a six-foot bed and rear-wheel drive. Trims were S and LS for 2007, with the LS dropped for 2008. Buyers who wanted more truck stepped up to the sibling i-370, which used a 242-horsepower 3.7-liter five-cylinder, came as an extended or crew cab, and could be had with four-wheel drive.
Because the i-290 was sold for just two years in one body style, condition and mileage matter most to what yours is worth. An LS with the automatic usually appeals to more buyers than a stripped S, and a truck that has been used lightly tends to bring more than one that has worked hard. Light use shows, and a free valuation on your i-290 accounts for it along with the trim and the miles.
What's the best way to sell my i-290?
An i-290 sells to people who want a small, economical pickup, so the real choice is between a quick sale and spending time on a private one.
| How you sell | Speed | Effort | Typical outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| Instant buyer (We Buy Any Car) | About an hour, instant payment | Low: handled for you | Fair market, a bit below top retail |
| Private sale | Days to weeks | High: list, calls, test drives | Potentially highest |
| Dealer trade-in | Fast | High, negotiation, fuzzy trade-in math, high-pressure sales | Credit toward a new car, not cash |
We are the fast option, with one appointment and instant payment at the end. A private buyer might pay more if you have time for messages and test drives, and a trade-in can work if your next vehicle comes from the same dealer.

What is the difference between the Isuzu i-290 and the i-370?
Engine and body choices. The i-290 has a 185-horsepower 2.9-liter four-cylinder, an extended cab and rear-wheel drive only, while the i-370 uses a 242-horsepower 3.7-liter five-cylinder, came as an extended or crew cab and could have four-wheel drive.
Is the Isuzu i-290 the same truck as a Chevrolet Colorado?
Essentially. General Motors built the i-Series, and the i-290 is a Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup with Isuzu grilles and badges. We value it on its own year, trim, mileage and condition.
Is an Isuzu i-290 LS worth more than an S?
Usually. The i-290 came in S and LS trims for 2007, and the LS was dropped for 2008, leaving only the S. An LS, particularly with the four-speed automatic, tends to appeal to more buyers than a plain S at similar mileage.
