Smartphone App Control. Chiseled Design. 5-Year Warranty.

The Future of Powered Running Boards

The AMP Research PowerStep Smart Series is the latest evolution of the legendary electric-powered running board. Designed specifically for the 2015-2022 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon, this system moves beyond simple automation to give you total control via your smartphone.

Engineered and Made in the USA, the Smart Series allows you to override your steps to stay deployed or retracted with a single tap. It solves the traditional struggle of hardwiring manual switches and provides a cleaner, more integrated look for your truck.

The Problem & The Solution:

The Pain: Traditional power steps require drilling into the dash for manual override switches, and standard fixed boards ruin the ground clearance of your Colorado or Canyon.
The Smart Solution: Total In-App Flexibility. Override your steps for cleaning or roof access and control your integrated LED lighting system directly from your phone—no extra dashboard switches required.

Real Owner Feedback ★★★★★

"I upgraded from fixed boards on my Canyon and the difference is night and day. The Smart Series app is a game changer—I love being able to drop the steps while I'm washing the truck without having to leave the door open. My wife loves the LED lighting at night, and they feel incredibly sturdy underfoot. Best mod I've done yet."

Frequently Asked Questions

+ Do I need a professional to install these?

While many customers install these themselves, professional installation is recommended. The Smart Series includes a plug-and-play wiring harness, but it does require some mechanical and electrical knowledge of your vehicle.

+ What happens if my phone dies? Will the steps still work?

Yes. The steps will continue to operate automatically whenever you open and close your doors. The app is only required for manual override and lighting customization.

+ Can the steps handle ice and snow in the winter?

Absolutely. The PowerStep is designed for extreme environments. If significant ice buildup occurs, the internal safety system will sense the resistance and stop the motor to prevent damage. You can also use the app to keep the steps retracted during heavy storms.

+ Does this work with both Crew Cab and Extended Cab models?

Yes, the 2015-2022 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon kits are compatible with both Crew Cab and Extended Cab configurations.

+ What is the weight rating per side?

The PowerStep Smart Series is rated to support up to 600 lbs per side, making it one of the strongest powered steps on the market.

Prop 65

California Residents

Prop 65 Warning- Product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

Proposition 65 is a California law passed in 1986. Its goals are to protect drinking water sources from toxic substances that may cause cancer and birth defects and to reduce or eliminate exposures to those chemicals generally, for example in consumer products, by requiring warnings in advance of those exposures.

The regulation requires the State of California to revise and republish yearly a list of chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. The current list contains over 900 naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals. This regulation also requires manufacturers to place warnings on products that contain any of the chemicals listed by the State of California. No other states require warnings of this nature, and products with Prop 65 warning language are legal to sell in all states. Detailed information regarding requirements for compliance to the California Prop. 65 is can be found at: www.P65Warning.ca.gov
