Chevrolet Camaro (fifth generation)

January 01, 1970

This article is about the fifth-generation of the Chevrolet Camaro. For general Camaro information, see Chevrolet Camaro.

The fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro is a pony car that was manufactured by American automobile manufacturer Chevrolet from 2010 to 2015 model years.[6] It is the fifth distinct generation of the muscle/pony car to be produced since its original introduction in 1967. Production of the fifth generation model began on March 16, 2009[7] after several years on hiatus since the previous generation's production ended in 2002 and went on sale to the public in April 2009 for the 2010 model year.[8][9]

Development edit

 
The clay model of the fifth-generation Camaro on display at the 2006 Washington Auto Show

By spring 2005, the first concept car of the fifth-generation Camaro was in development. Several sketches of both the exterior and interior were drawn and were shown months later to the public. Once sketches were finished, the Camaro was constructed as a clay model which was completed by fall 2005 and was shown to the public in early 2006.

After the public introduction of the concept cars, Chevrolet started constructing several camouflaged test mules of the Camaro which were manufactured by Holden costing about US$250,000 each. These vehicles were used for crash testing, test driving, and handling extreme weather conditions such as in Canada, Arizona, and Australia. By January 2008, Chevrolet announced that the test mules will not be camouflaged[10] and various images of the Camaro were released in the same year, including pre-production models.

2010 model year edit

As evidence that we're not completely brain-dead, GM will build the Chevy Camaro.

—Rick Wagoner, General Motors CEO[11]

On August 10, 2006, GM Chairman and CEO Rick Wagoner announced that the company would build an all-new version of the Chevrolet Camaro based on the award-winning concept that debuted at the 2006 Detroit auto show in January 2006. The new Camaro was originally scheduled to begin production in 2008 and to go on sale in the first quarter of 2009 for the 2009 model year,[6][12][13] but General Motors stated in March 2008 that production would be delayed until February 2009 with the Camaro going on sale in the spring of 2009 for the 2010 model year.[8][9]

Chevrolet General Manager Ed Peper stated that the new Camaro "will appeal to both men and women, and unite customers with fond memories of previous Camaros with those who first experienced a Camaro" when the concept was unveiled in January 2006.[14] Bob Lutz's post on the GM FastLane Blog for August 10, 2006 thanked everyone in the blogosphere who commented and offered feedback on the Camaro.[15]

Following the development of the Zeta architecture and because of its position as the GM global center of RWD development, GM Holden in Australia led the final design, engineering, and development of the Camaro. Original plans for the car included sharing the chassis with the Impala, which was to be switched to the Zeta platform. However, a 2007 energy law drastically changing the Corporate Average Fuel Economy forced GM to scuttle plans for replacing the W-Body platform of the Impala.[16] The new Camaro was produced at the Oshawa Car Assembly manufacturing plant in Canada.[17] 2,750 jobs would have been lost at the Oshawa manufacturing plant which had been originally scheduled to be closed in 2008; some of these jobs were saved due to the new Camaro's production.[18] This new product program and conversion of the Oshawa plant to a state of the art flexible manufacturing facility represented a US$740,000,000 investment.[19]

Camaro (2009–2015) edit

 
Interior (automatic model)

The Camaro was made available as a coupe in five different trim levels; the LS, 1LT, 2LT, 1SS, and 2SS. The LS and LT trim levels are powered by the 3,564 cc (217 cu in) GM LLT V6 engine having a power output of 312 hp (233 kW) at 6,400 rpm and 273 lb⋅ft (370 N⋅m) of torque at 5,200 rpm. The SS with manual transmission is powered by the 6.2 L (6,162 cc or 376 cu in) GM LS3 V8 engine rated at 426 hp (318 kW) at 5,900 rpm and 420 lb⋅ft (569 N⋅m) of torque at 4,600 rpm while the SS with automatic transmission is powered by a new variant of the LS3 called the GM L99 which produces 400 hp (298 kW) at 5,900 rpm and 410 lb⋅ft (556 N⋅m) of torque at 4,300 rpm. The L99 V8 engine, not to be confused with the earlier LT-series L99, uses Active Fuel Management which enables the engine to run on only four cylinders during urban driving conditions, such as highway cruising, to improve fuel economy.

Other features include a fully independent four-wheel suspension system, variable-rate power steering, four-wheel disc brakes standard on all models (four-piston Brembo calipers on SS models), a StabiliTrak electronic stability/traction control system, Competitive/Sport modes for the stability system offered on SS models, launch control on SS models equipped with the six-speed manual transmission, and six standard airbags that include head curtain side-impact airbags and front seat-mounted thorax side airbags. An RS appearance package was available on LT and SS trim levels which included HID headlamps with integrated halo rings, a rear spoiler, and RS-specific taillamps and wheels. Rally and hockey stripe packages were made available in several colors as well.

The Camaro was unveiled at the Warren Technical Center,[20] followed by GM Holden's Melbourne headquarters,[21] Yokohama Red Brick Park,[22] and Summer Sonic 2010.[23][24]

US models went on sale in the first quarter of 2009.[25]

Japanese models included the LT and SS, and went on sale on 2009-12-05.[26][27]

Transformers Special Edition edit

On July 22, 2009, to coincide with the release of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, GM announced a Transformers Special Edition appearance package for the 2010 Camaro at the 2009 San Diego Comic-Con.[28] The US$995 appearance package (RPO code: CTH) could be applied to LT and SS trims with or without the optional RS package and could only be applied to orders made in the Rally Yellow exterior scheme. The package included an Autobot shield badge on the driver and passenger side fenders underneath the Camaro nameplate, an Autobot shield on each of the four wheel's center cap, an Autobot shield embroidered on the interior center console, a Transformers logo on the driver and passenger doors' sill plates replacing the original "Camaro" labeled plates, and high-gloss black center rally stripes with the Transformers ghost logo embedded. This then made the 2010 Camaro resemble the Bumblebee Camaro from the 2007 movie, often referred to as T1 Bumblebee.[29] Production of the add-on package ceased on January 12, 2010, with an estimated 1,500 units produced.[30] 1,916 units were finally produced at the end of 2010.[31]

Japanese models of the ten package went on sale on in February 2010.[32][33]

Synergy Special Edition edit

On January 14, 2010, GM announced the production version of the Synergy Concept Camaro originally shown at the 2009 SEMA show. The Synergy Special Edition (RPO code: GHS) for the 2010 model year is based on the Camaro 1LT/2LT model and features the limited Synergy Green exterior color scheme.[34] Though the edition is from the SEMA concept there are certain accessories that did not come on the production unit such as the high wing spoiler, 21 in (530 mm) Black painted wheels and ground effects kit. The production units came accented by Cyber Grey Rally Stripes running the length of the Camaro hood and rear deck. Other exterior features include a standard rear spoiler found on RS and SS packages replacing the high wing and standard 19 in (480 mm) Sterling Silver painted wheels wrapped with P245/50R19 tires, backup radar, and sunroof. The color scheme is carried over on the interior with a Synergy Green instrument panel and door inserts with green ambient lighting that run along the door panels. Synergy Green stitching also accents the Jet Black cloth seats, steering wheel, shift knob, and center console. Other standard features include paddle shifters, the Convenience and Connectivity Package which offers Bluetooth phone connectivity, a USB port for MP3 players, and remote vehicle start for models equipped with an automatic transmission. Though this edition of the Camaro has certain accessories that come available with the RS package, the RS package itself was not available to purchase with the Synergy Camaro order. The Synergy Special Edition was available in limited production from February 2010 to May 2010, a total of 2425 were sold.

2010 Indianapolis 500 Pace Car Special Edition (RPO Z4Z) edit

 
Camaro Indianapolis 500 Pace Car Special Edition

In April 2010, General Motors and the Indianapolis Motors Speedway announced limited production of the Pace Car that was introduced to pace the 2010 Indianapolis 500. The Indianapolis 500 Pace Car replica is based on the 2010 Camaro 2SS Automatic 400 hp 6.2 L V8 model with RS package which includes the Inferno Orange exterior paint scheme with White Diamond rally stripes that run from front to the rear of the entire body of the car. The event and organization logos of the Indianapolis 500 Speedway are decaled on both driver and passenger doors with special badging placed underneath both front quarter panels of the Camaro nameplate. Special event stitching of the 2010 event replaces the "SS" stitching on the headrests of the front interior seating, with special premium accented floor mats and Inferno Orange accented interior trim kit. The front grille is replaced with the heritage grille that was made available as an aftermarket accessory from GM, with the addition of an Inferno Orange trimmed engine cover. Production was limited to 294 units, the majority of which were produced in automatics and a few had manual transmissions (Mostly Canadian). Out of the 294 units, 50 were sent to the Indianapolis 500 event (Festival cars) which could be seen during Pole Day prior to the event with each darning a license plate reflecting its number from 1-50. 45 other units were sent to Canada and 199 were sent to the 186 top Camaro selling dealerships based on retail sales in the United States.

Production of the 2010 Camaro Z4Z began halfway through the 2010 model year. The production of the 2010 Camaro was temporarily halted in April 2010 when all 294 of the Z4Z models were produced. After the 294 Z4Z models were produced, production of the standard models resumed.

The 2010 Camaro 2SS Indy 500 Pace Car (Z4Z) is the second lowest production number Camaro pace car that has been made available for public purchase since its debut at the Indianapolis 500 in 1967.[35]

SLP Performance ZL550/ZL575 Special Edition edit

The SLP Performance ZL550 and ZL575 are limited production versions of the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS from SLP Performance. The ZL550 would have a supercharger attached to the 6.2 L V8 boosting power from 426 to 550 hp. The 550 hp variant was mated to the 6-speed automatic transmission. It would also include 20-inch 5-spoke red line machined spoke face with ZL center caps. A decal on the rear tail light in flat black. Heritage style SS badges on the front grill and rear panel, three ZL550 or ZL575 OEM-styled exterior badges, ZL550 or ZL575 logo embroidered in the headrests and floor mats. It also included a 1-250 numbered plaque on the dashboard and numbered key fobs. It also sported a cold air induction system and an axle-back exhaust system with unique tips. A tweaked suspension lowered the front by 1-inch and the rear by 0.8-inch. The hood of the car utilizes an RTM hood with a functional heat extractor. The ZL575 used the same 6.2 L V8 upgraded with the ZL550's supercharger rated at 575 hp. The ZL575 models came mated to the 6-speed manual transmission found in the standard Camaro, but was enhanced to be able to handle the increased power. An option for the ZL575 was the 6-speed manual transmission would be installed with the clutch off of a Corvette ZR1 for sportier gear changes. Also, an option for the ZL550's transmission was being equipped with a 3.45 gear ratio. Brembo brakes were also an option. Sales began at Chevy dealers in mid-2010.

Styling Special (2010-) edit

The Camaro Styling Special is a version of the 2010 Camaro LT RS and SS RS for the Japanese market. It features a rally stripe, front grille, and door sill plate (standard on SS RS).

The vehicles went on sale in 2010–09.[36]

Production edit

Assembly of the fifth-generation Camaro took place in Canada like its predecessor. Production, however, was shifted from Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec to Oshawa, Ontario.

Chevrolet started taking pre-orders for the 2010 Camaro on October 13, 2008, however sales to rentals and orders made after the pre-order period, were processed before many of the pre-orders. By the end of 2008, General Motors confirmed more than 10,000 advanced orders[37] and that all pre-orders would be completed by October 2009.[38] Camaro sales began in April 2009.

On January 17, 2009, the first production Camaro (VIN #100001) was auctioned at the 2009 Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction in an American Heart Association charity lot.[39] The vehicle was purchased by Hendrick Motor Sports CEO Rick Hendrick for US$350,000.[40]

By late June 2009, Chevrolet dealers were reporting that the Camaro sales were exceeding availability, with prices running about US$5,000 above the MSRP. It was suggested that this may be influenced by the prominent presence of the vehicle in the Transformers movie sequel that was released worldwide throughout the month.[41]

General Motors sold 61,648 Camaros in the 2009 calendar year.[42] Sales of the Camaro did not start until April 2009.

Marketing edit

A 2010 Camaro was shown while the main character was driving in the NBC series My Own Worst Enemy, which premiered on October 13, 2008, as part of a marketing arrangement between GM and NBC.[43][44]

As part of the 2010 Camaro launch in Japan, a special GM-made T-shirt was made available between July 9, 2009, and August 31, 2009.[45]

As part of the 2010 Camaro launch in Japan, a promotion movie for Camaro premiered in Altavision Ginza between November 1, 2009, and November 8, 2009.[46]

As part of the 2011 Camaro launch in Japan, new members joining Hooters Tokyo between October 25, 2010, and November 30, 2010, could win a 2010 Chevrolet Camaro LT RS.[47]

2011 model year edit

Camaro coupe (2010) edit

 
Camaro SS coupe

For the 2011 model year, the Camaro V6 engine was rated at 312 hp (233 kW) and 278 lb⋅ft (377 N⋅m), an increase of 8 hp (6.0 kW) and 5 lb⋅ft (6.8 N⋅m) from 2010. No engineering changes were made for the increase as GM claimed the 304 hp (227 kW) in the 2010 Camaro's engine was a conservative rating.[48]

The Synergy Green color from the 2010 Special Edition would be available on all 2011 model trim levels. A head-up display (HUD) with most of the instrument panel's information would be offered. The HUD is a modified version of the Chevrolet Corvette's display. The main difference is that the version in the Corvette is able to display lateral g-forces, while that amenity is not available on the Camaro. Due to the 2011 Fukushima earthquake, certain pigments were not available to make certain colors.[49]

In November 2011, the export version (excluding the Japanese version) of the Camaro was introduced after a two-year delay. The delay was due to unexpected domestic demand. The export version included different tail lamps with integrated reverse and amber turn signal lamps, larger external rearview mirrors with integrated side turn signal repeaters, a rear bumper without reverse light inserts, and other changes as to comply with ECE regulations.[50]

The Japanese model was unveiled in golf courses in Tokyo, Yokohama, Nagoya, Osaka.[51] Japanese models include LT RS and SS RS with 6-speed automatic transmission and the choice of 9 body colors (including new Red Jewel).[52]

Neiman Marcus Edition edit

On October 19, 2010, at 12:00 noon EDT, orders of the Neiman Marcus Edition Camaro Convertible were opened through Neiman Marcus and sold out within three minutes becoming one of the quickest-selling special edition vehicles that General Motors has put out in the market.[53] A total of 75 units were produced and deliveries began in early 2011. The NM Camaro was based on both the 1SS and 2SS models and was equipped with the 6.2 L V8 engine in both options of either manual or automatic transmissions with the equal fuel efficiency and power output of the 2011 Camaro. Accessories that separated this edition from the rest were noticeably that of the exclusive tri-coat exterior paint called "Deep Bourdeaux" with ghosted rally stripes spanning across the hood to the rear deck along with a separate "Silver" painted windshield surround. A two-toned interior leather trim also separated the special edition from the rest with basic black leather with "Amber" interior accents on the front and rear seats as well as on the armrests all with accented "Brilliant Red" stitching on the aforementioned including the center console, steering wheel, and shift knob. A black interior trim kit was placed upon the door panels and dash which replaced the standard "Midnight Silver" that came in standard 2LT and 2SS models. 21-inch five-spoke wheels that were not yet released to the general public for separate purchasing until late 2011 were placed wrapped with Pirelli P-Zero tires that also contained a Brilliant Red strip flowing along the outer edge of the wheel to follow that stitching in the interior. This edition of the Camaro was the only batch of units that were to follow trimming keys of that from the 2007 Camaro Convertible Concept with the Silver painted Window surround, interior leather trim placements, and wide spoke wheels. No Camaro Convertibles produced from the factory ever provided a different color windshield surround other than the produced body color.

Convertible (2011–2015) edit

 
Chevrolet Camaro SS convertible

Production of the 2011 Camaro Convertible began on January 31, 2011, in Oshawa, Ontario, where the coupe was assembled.[54] It arrived in dealerships in February, and is available in both base and SS versions like the coupe. The Camaro convertible added an aluminum brace over the engine assembly, and under the transmission.

US models include a choice of V6 and V8 (SS only) engines, Tremec TR-6060 6-speed manual or Hydra-Matic 6L50 6-speed automatic transmission, and went on sale in 2011–12.[55][56]

Japanese models include a choice of four base colors (silver ice metallic, black, victory red, and summit white) and two premium (rally yellow, inferno orange metallic) body colors. They went on sale on 15 July 2011.[57]

2011 Synergy Series edit

From concept to reality, the 2011 Synergy Series Camaro first made its debut at the 2009 SEMA event as a concept under the tag of Camaro Chroma. This concept was to display a combination of various parts from the Chevrolet Camaro's accessories catalog of both current and conceptual pieces to provide a different appearance from the other Camaro models. In 2010, the car would pop its face again however under a different exterior paint scheme of "Cyber Gray Metallic" and a new nameplate of Synergy Series. It was made known that the Synergy car being shown at the 2010 SEMA event was not just going to be a concept but that it would be made available to the general public to purchase for the 2011 year model run. On May 5, 2011, orders were open to those who desired to purchase the appearance package on top of the price of either a 2LT or 2SS in either a coupe or convertible plus the purchase of the RS package was required. Only the exterior colors of Victory Red, Summit White, or Black could be made with purchase.[58] Upon ordering the Synergy Series Camaro people had the option to choose between two different packages:

Level One (RPO: AJA): Red interior stitching on gray leather-appointed interior seats, center console, steering wheel, shifter boot and knob, and armrests on the doors. Switchblade Silver interior trim kit on dash and door panels with accented red light piping in the door trim, footwells, and cup holders. Body-colored ground effects, Heritage grille, Blade spoiler, and antenna. Red engine cover and red-colored Brembo brake calipers. Premium floor mats with red edging and Silver stripe Yenko inspired decals on the hood, mailslot, rear deck, and side gills.[58]

Level Two (RPO: AJB): All Content from the Level One package with the addition of dealer-installed 21-inch wide five-spoke wheels with "Blade Silver" inserts and "Red Flange" stripe along the edge of wheels.[58]

Only 500 units of this package incorporated into the Camaros were to be produced for the 2011 model year run, however, only 400 were actually ordered.[59] The name Synergy was decided by Chevrolet to be not only known for the green color of the first run of special edition Camaros in 2010 but to be a yearly special edition Camaro offered by Chevrolet for their determination to release at least two special edition Camaros every year. So the word "Series" was added to reflect the editions as an annual special edition.

XM Accessory Appearance Package edit

The XM Accessory Appearance Package (RPO: ABN) was introduced at the 2010 SEMA event providing an option that would differentiate the 1LT model from the rest as special editions were being offered towards the SS models. Ordering of the appearance package began on February 17, 2011, until the end of the 2011 model and was limited to exterior colors of Black, Cyber Gray Metallic, and Imperial Blue Metallic. Integrated with the purchase of the XM Accessory Appearance Package was a front body-colored Heritage Grille, 21-inch diameter 5-spoke polished aluminum wheels, Silver strip running along the side of the Camaro following the contours of the shoulders to the front with pinstriping, premium carpeted floor mats, rear spoiler without the need to purchase an RS (RPO: WRS) package and a 12-month free trial subscription to XM Satellite Radio.

Production edit

Production of the 2011 Camaro began on 2010-06-07.[60]

Marketing edit

As part of the 2011 Camaro launch in Japan, a Camaro 2-day campaign took place between July 1, 2010, and September 30, 2010, featuring a 2-day test drive chosen by raffle from Chevrolet dealers.[61]

After the 2010 version incarnation of Hawaii Five-0 was picked up by CBS for broadcast, starting with the second episode (September 27, 2010), a Chevrolet product placement deal includes a Camaro RS used by Danny Williams (Scott Caan) used for the first three seasons, with a 2014 Camaro replacing it for Season 4.[62] A second Camaro (an SS variant), in yellow, is used by Max Bergman (Masi Oka), starting in the second season.

The Chevrolet Camaro was launched in China in April 2011 through imports under the Legend trim level. The 3.6 L LLT V6 was the standard engine paired to a 6-speed automatic gearbox. Imports for the fifth generation Camaro ended in 2015.

2012 model year update edit

ZL1 (2012–2015) edit

 
Chevrolet Camaro ZL1
 
Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 Convertible

Unveiled at the 2011 Chicago Auto Show, the ZL1 is a high-performance variant of the Camaro SS. At least 30 percent of the parts on the ZL1 are exclusive to the model.

The car features a 6,162 cc (6.2 L; 376.0 cu in) LSA V8 engine with a 1.9 L (120 cu in) supercharger which produced a maximum boost pressure of 7 psi (0.48 bar). The engine has a power output of 580 hp (588 PS; 433 kW) at 6,000 rpm and 556 lb⋅ft (754 N⋅m) of torque at 4,200 rpm. Power is delivered to the rear wheels by either a six-speed manual (TR-6060) or a 6L90 automatic transmission. The manual transmission has a stronger output shaft, a more robust rear housing, and an additional mainshaft roller bearing to provide 30% more torque capacity than the automatic transmission used in the Camaro SS. To improve shift quality, there are triple synchros in some gears and a revised linkage. A new dual-mass flywheel is bolted to a high-capacity twin-disc clutch. The automatic transmission has additional clutch plates, a strengthened output shaft and is programmed with three operating modes (Drive/Sport/Manual).[66]

The ZL1's power is complemented by exclusive performance technologies, including the third generation of Magnetic ride suspension and Performance Traction Management. Brembo supplied the braking system having six-piston calipers at the front and four-piston calipers at the rear. A duct system delivers air from the grille to the hard-working rotors. The 20-inch forged aluminum wheels are fitted with second-generation Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar tires (size 285/35ZR-20 at the front and 305/35ZR-20 at the back). Damping is provided by Magnetic Ride Control units. This system can sense the need for a damping correction 1,000 times per second and make that change in only five milliseconds. The Performance Traction Management (PTM) system was originally engineered for the Corvette ZR1. In addition to modulating engine torque for optimum launch performance in manual-equipped ZL1s, PTM also varies the traction control and suspension damping as needed. The five available modes are for wet, dry, sport with or without stability control, and race-driving conditions.[66]

Additional track-ready features standard on the Camaro ZL1 include coolers for the engine, transmission and rear differential, cooling ducts for the Brembo brakes, and a high-performance fuel system delivering fuel to the LSA engine under any performance-driving condition. The ZL1's rear axle includes a high-capacity cast-iron-case differential, large asymmetrical half shafts, and extra-heavy-duty universal joints. To keep the lubricant temperature in line, there's an oil-to-oil heat exchanger built into the bottom of the differential. Transmission fluid circulates through that heat exchanger and through the radiator to drop operating temps by more than 100 °F (38 °C). In addition, the engine is fitted with the same oil-to-coolant heat exchanger used in the Corvette ZR1. The ZL1 has a deeper oil pan, a longer pickup, and a higher-capacity pump than the SS.[66][67]

2012 Camaro 2LS (2012) edit

The Camaro 2LS was introduced in 2012. Designed for better fuel economy using a slightly different gear ratio than other V6 automatics, this model was ostensibly the automatic transmission version of the original LS. The LS trim level was now divided into 1LS (manual transmission) and 2LS (automatic transmission) trims. In addition to the gearing differences, the 2LS automatic transmission did not have "Sport Mode," nor did it allow the driver to manually shift with the steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters. Instead, the vehicle goes into Electronic Range Select (2LS), which only allows the driver to choose the highest gear that the transmission will automatically upshift to.[7]

Concepts edit

Chevrolet Camaro Concept (2006) edit

 
Chevrolet Camaro Concept

The Chevrolet Camaro Concept was designed by a South Korean-born designer Sangyup Lee.[108][109][110][111] The car was based on the Holden developed GM Zeta platform. It was powered by a 6.0-liter LS2 V8 engine rated at 400 hp (298 kW) with active fuel management. The engine was mated to a T56 6-speed manual transmission and the car was equipped with front and rear suspension featuring progressive-rate springs and gas-pressurized dampers, four-wheel vented disc brakes with 14-inch rotors, 21-inch front and 22-inch rear five-spoke cast alloy wheels, and 275/30R21 front and 305/30R22 rear tires. The wheelbase is 110.5 in (281 cm), which is 9 in (23 cm) longer than its predecessor, but an overall length of just 186.2 in (473 cm), 7 in (18 cm) shorter. The concept was inspired by the 1969 Camaro.

The Camaro concept was unveiled at the 2006 North American International Auto Show.[112][113][114][115]

AutoWeek editors unanimously awarded the Camaro Concept "Best In Show."

2007 Camaro Convertible Concept edit

 
 
2007 Camaro Convertible Concept

The 2007 Camaro Convertible Concept was announced on January 6, 2007, at the 2007 North American International Auto Show. Early speculation on the existence of the car by many automotive publications[116][117][118] proved to be true when an early embargo was broken on January 4, 2007.[119][120]

There are differences between the coupe and convertible concepts beyond the roof and Hugger Orange pearl tri-coat paint job with a pair of dark gray racing stripes.[121] Every exterior surface was changed from the door cut back. The rear fender lines dropped off from the horizontal surface to the vertical surface a couple of inches farther out than on the coupe to maintain visual proportions. The rear spoiler was also reshaped. The 21 in (53 cm) front and 22 in (56 cm) rear wheels were redesigned and a thin orange line was applied to the outer edge, a nod to the red striped tires popular on late 1960s muscle cars.

There were many interior changes that were incorporated into the new concept. The retro houndstooth-pattern seats of the coupe were replaced with modern leather and orange stitching. The metal finishes, accent panels, and seats were all in different colors. The rear seats were 6 in (15 cm) closer together to make room for the tonneau cover. The clarity of the circular gauges in square frames were improved by making the faces white with black chrome numbers and a red anodized needle. The deep-dish three-spoke steering wheel and four-pack gauge cluster were carried over from the coupe concept. Chrome seat-belt buckles were designed to look like the belt buckles in late 1960s GM automobiles. This reworked interior of the Camaro Convertible Concept was a very close representation of what would be seen in the production version of the vehicle.

SEMA edit

2008 edit

 
Camaro Black Concept at the 2008 SEMA show

General Motors showed several concept variants of the production version of the Camaro on November 3, 2008, at the 2008 SEMA show.[122][123]

The Camaro Black Concept featured a matte black hood, tinted glass, HID headlamps with red "halo rings," a darker grille, dark-tinted taillight lenses, and 21 in (533 mm) wheels with a darker finish. The interior also featured the same black theme as the exterior. It was powered by the 304 hp (227 kW) 3.6 L (220 cu in) V6 engine.

Inspired by the COPO Camaros of the late 1960s, the Camaro LS7 Concept was built from the 2010 Camaro SS with the LS3 engine replaced with a GM Performance Parts 7.0-liter LS7 crate motor having a power output of 550 hp (410 kW). The heritage of COPO's performance history was reflected with the inclusion of a high-performance exhaust and improved headers, air intake system, and camshaft—all developed by GM Performance Parts. Other modifications included a Tremec six-speed manual transmission, Brembo brakes, Hurst short-throw shifter, 20-inch custom wheels, and a lowered ride height. The exterior of the car was finished in Victory Red with accents of matte black on the "LS7" badges, front grille slot, rear headlight panel, and hood. The LS7 logo was repeated in Victory Red on top of the hood cowl. The interior had a matching color scheme with red panel trim on the doors, dash, and gages. Gloss black replaced every trim that came in silver in the final production Camaros, such as on the steering wheel, shifter knob, vent trimmings, and center console clusters.

The Camaro Dale Earnhardt Jr. Concept was produced with input from NASCAR Race driver Dale Earnhardt Jr. The Camaro started in SS trim and was tuned to run on higher-octane E85 fuel. It featured a gray and white paint scheme with orange trim. Additional features included 21 in (533 mm) five-spoke wheels, a dovetail spoiler, an alternate grille, and other official GM accessory modifications.

2009 edit

A customized Camaro was built by GM for TV presenter Jay Leno,[124][125] and is powered by the 3.6 L (220 cu in) direct-injected V6 similar to the unit that resides in standard LS and LT models, but has an additional pair of Turbonetics T-3 turbochargers. The engine has a power output of 425 hp (317 kW) with the help of a custom air-to-air intercooler that feeds 7 pounds of boost pressure into the engine. The extra performance is added with virtually no penalty in fuel economy. Besides the power upgrades, the vehicle also gets an upgraded Centerforce clutch and pressure plate for the six-speed manual transmission, an upgraded Be-Cool radiator, Brembo 6-piston brake package, a Pedders coil-over lowering kit, and a bodykit that includes a new rear diffuser as well as a revised front fascia and hood with additional vents for the brakes and engine.

The Synergy Concept Camaro was one of two concepts that showcased GM accessories that could be applied to the Camaro, previewing a new Synergy Green production exterior color[126] which featured the latest in Camaro appearance accessories offered through Chevrolet dealers in 2009 and demonstrated the personalization possibilities that were open to Camaro owners. The Synergy Concept included Cyber Grey rally hood and rear deck stripes, a new ground effects kit consisting of a new rear diffuser, a front spoiler, a new rear bumper with an integrated exhaust system, and a rear high wing. All accessories that were displayed on the concept Camaro were finished in the production Cyber Grey exterior color. The concept vehicle also included 21 in (530 mm) wheels with a black center finish and polished rim. The concept was further enhanced with a Pedders coil-over lowering kit and a set of large Brembo brakes. The interior is color-coordinated with Jet Black and Synergy Green accent stitching, piping, interior trim kit, and green ambient lighting that run along the door panels and speedometers. The production version of the concept Camaro, the Synergy Special Edition would eventually be made available from February 2010 through May 2010 in limited numbers.[34]

Japanese models went on sale in February 2010 through May 2010.[127]

The Camaro Chroma Concept is based on an LS3 SS/RS model in Summit White and uses a combination of accessory components that showcased future GM accessories for the Camaro which would become available during the 2011 model year.[128] The Chroma concept was the preliminary design of what would become later known as the "Synergy Series Camaro" that would debut at the 2010 SEMA Show. The accessories package included a new silver stripe package, 21 in (530 mm) wheels with silver-painted spoke centers with a Victory Red stripe painted along the edge of the wheel, "Blade” rear spoiler, color-matching ground effects package, rear fender vent graphics, and "Heritage" front grill with body-color outer frame. The interior comes with black and gray leather seats which feature red accent stitching that is also applied to the steering wheel and shifter boot that is surrounding a Hurst short-throw shifter as well as an interior trim kit painted in Silver Ice that incorporates the door panels and dash trim. Mechanically, the car is equipped with a combination of General Motor Performance Parts off-road shorty headers, Pedders' suspension kit, off-road exhaust, and Brembo Calipers painted in Victory Red.

Camaro Dusk edit

The Camaro Dusk Concept offers a contemporary tuner aesthetic featuring an aggressive look, a lowered ride height, 21 in (530 mm) BBS wheels, the rear spoiler from an SS model and a custom ground effects package.[129] The ground effects package includes a front splitter, rocker extensions, and a rear diffuser. The car is painted in Berlin Blue while the ground effects are painted a contrasting color. GM added a new exhaust system and Brembo brakes from a Camaro SS. The interior is trimmed in Jet Black and Sedona. Other interior features include footwell lighting and premium door sill plates. The concept also features advanced technology and premium audio options such as a Boston Acoustics sound system, WiFi connectivity, and a cradle for an iPhone.

Chevrolet launched a graphics campaign in October 2009 asking Camaro enthusiasts to vote for their favorite design from several accessory graphics packages. The top four designs were produced and brought to the SEMA Show. The Camaro Graphics Concept wore those designs on different days.[130] When the convention ended, another round of voting would be conducted and the winner was considered for future production. Brent Dewar, vice president of Chevrolet, said that "Camaro has thousands of fans on the social media sites and that this is one way for the company to stay connected to its customers."

2010 edit

 
Chevrolet Camaro SSX

Unveiled at the 2010 SEMA show, the Camaro SSX concept car is a variant of the Camaro SS converted into a closed-course track car, built to showcase new performance parts. The car was developed with input from Pratt and Miller, Chevrolet's partner in Corvette Racing, and Riley Technologies using parts proven in the Grand Am racing series.

Washington Auto Show By spring 2005 the first concept car of the fifth generation Camaro was in development Several sketches of both the exterior and interior were drawn and were shown months later to the public Once sketches were finished the Camaro was constructed as a clay model which was completed by fall 2005 and was shown to the public in early 2006 After the public introduction of the concept cars Chevrolet started constructing several camouflaged test mules of the Camaro which were manufactured by Holden costing about US 250 000 each These vehicles were used for crash testing test driving and handling extreme weather conditions such as in Canada Arizona and Australia By January 2008 Chevrolet announced that the test mules will not be camouflaged 10 and various images of the Camaro were released in the same year including pre production models 2010 model year editAs evidence that we re not completely brain dead GM will build the Chevy Camaro Rick Wagoner General Motors CEO 11 On August 10 2006 GM Chairman and CEO Rick Wagoner announced that the company would build an all new version of the Chevrolet Camaro based on the award winning concept that debuted at the 2006 Detroit auto show in January 2006 The new Camaro was originally scheduled to begin production in 2008 and to go on sale in the first quarter of 2009 for the 2009 model year 6 12 13 but General Motors stated in March 2008 that production would be delayed until February 2009 with the Camaro going on sale in the spring of 2009 for the 2010 model year 8 9 Chevrolet General Manager Ed Peper stated that the new Camaro will appeal to both men and women and unite customers with fond memories of previous Camaros with those who first experienced a Camaro when the concept was unveiled in January 2006 14 Bob Lutz s post on the GM FastLane Blog for August 10 2006 thanked everyone in the blogosphere who commented and offered feedback on the Camaro 15 Following the development of the Zeta architecture and because of its position as the GM global center of RWD development GM Holden in Australia led the final design engineering and development of the Camaro Original plans for the car included sharing the chassis with the Impala which was to be switched to the Zeta platform However a 2007 energy law drastically changing the Corporate Average Fuel Economy forced GM to scuttle plans for replacing the W Body platform of the Impala 16 The new Camaro was produced at the Oshawa Car Assembly manufacturing plant in Canada 17 2 750 jobs would have been lost at the Oshawa manufacturing plant which had been originally scheduled to be closed in 2008 some of these jobs were saved due to the new Camaro s production 18 This new product program and conversion of the Oshawa plant to a state of the art
