Ahead of progress: the history of generations of the Chevrolet Camaro

Chevrolet Camaro is a legend that surprises and sets new trends in its class with every stage of development. The brand was created in 1966, and during this time six generations of cars came out. All of them have one thing in common: special design and powerful engines.

The first generation: how the legend was born

It all started in 1964, when Ford introduced the Mustang. It was a car of a completely new class, aimed at young people who were not satisfied with the large family cars popular at that time. The market reacted violently, and just two years later the first generation Chevrolet Camaro joined the compact sports car class. Initially, there were two options available: a convertible and a coupe, from the 80th additional options under the order. The most powerful motor in the lineup is a V-shaped one, with 5.7 liters and 255 hp.

The modernized 1969 Chevrolet Camaro series was offered with a pronounced sporty design and improved technical content. There was a deep grille and segmented headlights. The car has become wider and more squat. A modern dashboard and luxury seats have been added to the cabin. The line of motors at that time was represented by 12 models. For the most powerful 5.7-liter, modifications were available for 325, 350, as well as 375 hp.

Second generation: classic

Just three years after the premiere, the second generation of the Chevrolet Camaro was born. At that moment it was one of the most popular models, so the novelty was greeted with a standing ovation. And it was worth it: the generation turned out to be of such high quality that its production lasted 12 years without major modernization.

The novelty was a little "Europeanized" - the cabriolet body was removed from the line and the coupe was lengthened by 5 cm. The 6.5-liter version with the 396 marking was used as the main engine. with a 105 hp unit However, this did not prevent the modification from becoming the best-selling in its class.

Third generation: impeccable style

The new generation of the Chevrolet Camaro was presented in 1982. In the same year, the novelty was recognized as the "car of the year" for its excellent design and ideal driving characteristics. Much attention has been paid to the suspension design, which improves agility and makes driving easier.

The third generation was distinguished by engines: they were equipped with fuel injection systems (this was a novelty for the automaker). The 3-speed automatic transmission was replaced by the 4-speed and 5-speed ones. A budget model with a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine appeared in the lineup.

The fourth generation: a time for innovation

His company presented in 1993. New Chevrolet Camaro was pleased with the most modern materials and technologies for that period. For the first time, when developing a car, the designers focused on plastic: fenders, a hood, and others were made from it. body parts... This made the car lighter and better handling - as did the redesigned front suspension and rack and pinion steering.

Under the hood was an LT1 engine with a new mechanical box gears in 6 steps. The production of new items was stopped in 2002. Then there were suggestions that the legendary Chevrolet Camaro would no longer be created.

Fifth generation: spectacular rebirth

Chevrolet Camaro fans found hope in 2010, when a new generation of the legend was presented. The novelty was presented more than effectively: it “played” one of the roles in the then cult film “Transformers”. With the fifth generation, the embodiment of ultra-modern design began with several elements of the classic muscle cars of previous years.

The power range consisted of two engines: 3.6 liters with 328 hp. and 6.2 liters with 405 hp. Both units were equipped with a 6-range automatic transmission for European buyers. Cars with 6-speed manual transmission are available to Americans. The model was designed on the Alpha platform (which later became the basis for the sixth generation) with multi-link suspension of both axles and rear-wheel drive.

In 2013, the fifth generation Chevrolet Camaro was regenerated. After restyling, the design of the car became even more interesting. An important role in this was played by LED running light lamps in the head optics, as well as a modernized center console in the cabin. It houses 4 sections of analogue readings of motor systems, as well as an innovative multimedia complex with a large screen.

The range of motors was presented by:

1. 6.2 L unit with 426 hp and a 6-speed manual transmission.
2. The engine is 6.2 liters and 589 hp, with a manual transmission * 6 steps (or automatic (6 positions).

Another distinctive feature of the upgraded version is excellent ride quality on slightly uneven roads. This greatly increases comfort on long journeys.

Sixth generation: the story continues

The new version of the Chevrolet Camaro retained the external features of the previous generation. But in general, this is a completely different car in which everything is modernized: design, interior trim, engines and systems.

Sixth generation model options:

1. LT - in the base version it is equipped with a 2.0 turbocharged four-cylinder unit with a capacity of 275 hp. On request, it is possible to install a six-cylinder engine with 3.6 liters and 335 hp.
2. The LT with the RS package is available with xenon headlights and LED surrounds, chrome grille trims, small spoiler and 20-inch wheels.
3. SS - a sports version with a V-shaped engine with 8 cylinders and 6.2 liters. Power - 445 hp A distinctive feature is a radiator grille with 6-sided cells, real air vents on the hood, xenon headlights and an LED edging that functions as daytime running lights.

All variants of the sixth generation Chevrolet Camaro of the pre-styling version are available in an open design: the noise and heat-insulated top on an electro-hydraulic drive can be fully folded and reclined at speeds up to 50 km / h.

In 2018, a restyled version of the car and a modification with a retractable roof came out. Engineers, working on improvements, updated the exterior, added modern technologies, introduced equipment:

• 8-inch touchscreen display with personalized settings;
• decorated steering wheel with beveled bottom and heated;
• dashboard for 22 parameters;
• rotary knobs for quick and easy climate control;
• a large compartment for things, cup holders on the central tunnel, and other handy little things.

The model looks even more modern. At the same time, the price of the car remains affordable within its niche.

Already, the official dealer of Chevrolet Major Auto offers to buy the 2019 Chevrolet Camaro - the most modern novelty. You can contact us to clarify prices and complete sets of models.

Chevrolet Camaro and sport: a history of achievements

Already the first generation Chevrolet Camaro was created taking into account all the necessary sports performance... The main goal in the development of the design, the engineers considered the utmost adaptability to participate in races of all types: whether it is a circuit competition on winding European tracks or 0.25 mile races with a parallel start.

The focus on sports victories became part of the marketing promotion of the Chevrolet Camaro: this was the only way to compete with worthy competitors in the niche. Therefore, all generations of models have been supplemented with excellent and responsive handling in all situations.

For sports competitions, initially each line was supplemented with the SS ( Super sport). It was the first generation Camaro with a 375 hp engine. opened the Indianapolis 500 race - and the cabriolet with spectacular orange stripes then became world famous. He was one of the most powerful and fastest for that time.

The heyday of sporting achievement for the Chevrolet Camaro began with participation in the Nascar competition. Initially, this league was focused on production cars, but over time, the format has changed: now, exclusive Chevrolet Camaro with special technical characteristics enter the track.

However, SS still participates in one of the most popular series - the Sprint Cup. This category of competition has brought the automaker 38 victories in history. Recently, the company's models have been constant leaders - and this is an absolute record among car manufacturers in this category.

The body of each racing car is tested in a wind tunnel. All auto experts attending the competition speak about engine reliability and safety.

The new 2019 Camaro continues the trend for great sports cars. The designers managed to reduce the weight of the model by 177 kg, while improving its braking performance, maneuverability and handling. The body length has become shorter and the width has increased. Vehicle reliability has increased by 28%. Many hours of testing in a wind tunnel made it possible to achieve an extremely low drag coefficient.

The driver can choose any mode: Sport, Tour or Snow \\ Ice. Each program offers special driving comfort and increased safety. Speaking of safety, there are 8 airbags in the cabin. Additional protection is provided by the high-strength body shell.

You can buy the 2019 Chevrolet Camaro from authorized dealer trade mark. Give preference to innovative sports carin which dynamics, optionality and reliability are elevated to absolute values.

In mid-May 2015, Chevrolet presented the sixth generation Camaro muscle car to the public at a special event in Detroit. The car retained its recognizable features, but at the same time it became noticeably more technologically advanced, having moved to a new "cart", and at once lost almost a hundredweight.

The production of the sixth incarnation of this sports car is established at the General Motors facility in Michigan - its sales on the US market began in the fall, and in 2016 it reached the Russian market.

The appearance of the "sixth Camaro" continues to develop the motives of its predecessor, but has become more modern and expressive.

Sharp edges and aggressively squinted optics with LED daytime running lights, combined with massive rear “hips”, original plastic bumpers and “muscles” pumped all over the body form a powerful and squat silhouette that cannot be confused with any other sports car.

Well, the final contribution to the completion of the harmonious image is made by stylish lanterns and beautiful rims measuring 18 or 20 inches.

The level of performance directly affects the design of the exterior:

• The basic version of the "sixth Camaro" is distinguished by vertical LED "chains" of running lights on the front bumper and two tailpipes of the exhaust system.
• But the privilege of the "top SS" is a more aggressive "muzzle" with horizontal LEDs and ventilation slots on the hood, as well as four "trunks" responsible for the release, and a small spoiler on the trunk.

The 6th generation Chevrolet Camaro has become smaller than its predecessor in all respects at once: length is 4784 mm, width - 1897 mm, height - 1348 mm, distance between axles - 2811 mm. This means that these indicators "lost" (in comparison with the previous one) - 53 mm, 20 mm, 12 mm and 41 mm, respectively. The front track is 1602 mm wide, and the rear track is 1631 mm.

The interior of "Camaro 6" retained a slight continuity with its predecessor, but received a noticeably changed layout. Four aircraft deflector nozzles look interesting, evoking associations with Mercedes, and the central pair is planted at the level of the transmission lever.

Wheel in a sporty way it is truncated in the lower part and carries the control elements, and it looks much more appropriate in the interior of a sports car than the “donut” from “Cruz” in the previous model.

By default, the sculptural canopy hides analog instruments, but an optional 8-inch high-definition display is installed. A screen of similar size tops the center console, but it runs the MyLink multimedia system.

The air temperature and fan speed control is organized in an interesting way - they are controlled by the rings around the ventilation deflectors, as a result of which the developers managed to get rid of some of the buttons.

What the sixth generation Chevrolet Camaro has noticeably added against the background of the fifth generation model is the quality of finishing materials - solid plastics, fabric or leather in the seat upholstery, metal inserts. The sports car is equipped with front seats with pronounced bolsters on the sides, the rear sofa will still be comfortable only for children or short riders.

Specifications. For the "Camaro", a power range of three gasoline units is proposed (but the basic version causes the greatest surprise):

• The role of the "base" is performed by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder Ecotec turbo engine developing 275 horse power at 5600 rpm (in the Russian market declared as "238-strong") and 400 Nm of torque, available in the range from 3000 to 4500 rpm.
• "Golden mean" is a V-shaped six-cylinder "aspirated" with a volume of 3.5 liters, equipped with direct injection, variable valve timing technology and a function to turn off a pair of cylinders at partial loads. "Six" releases 335 "horses" of power at 6800 rpm and 385 Nm of peak thrust.
• The summit is occupied by a 6.2-liter "monster" V8 LT1 with direct fuel supply to the combustion chamber from the Corvette C7 Stingray sports car, the output of which reaches 455 horsepower at 6000 rpm, and the maximum torque is 617 Nm, which are fed to the wheels with 4400 rpm. / minute.

Each of the engines relies on a 6-speed "mechanics" or an 8-band "automatic" Hydra-Matic (8L45 for the 2.0-liter version, 8L90 - for modifications 3.6 and 6.2).

In terms of dynamic characteristics, the "sixth Camaro" is not bad - even the basic version of this coupe accelerates from 0 to 100 km / h in less than 6 seconds, and for every 100 km of run in the combined cycle, it consumes an average of 7.8 liters of gasoline.

This two-door is based on the Alpha RWD platform (which also serves as the base for the Cadillac CTS sedan, but has been 70% redesigned specifically for the Camaro). On the front axle, an aluminum multi-link scheme with MacPherson and double swivel fist, behind - a steel five-link suspension. The wider use of "winged" metal in the body structure increased the rigidity of the latter by 28% and reduced the total weight of the car by at least 90 kilograms.

The steering device implies the presence of an electric amplifier.

In the basic version, the coupe "flaunts" Brembo brakes: 4-piston with 320 mm discs in front and 1-piston with 315 mm discs at the rear. "Top" cars put devices with a diameter of 345 mm on the front wheels and 338 mm on the rear.

Options and prices. In the Russian market, the 6th generation Chevrolet Camaro in 2018) is offered in a single 2LT configuration, supplemented by the RS package, with a 2.0-liter turbocharged "four" under the hood, which has been derated from "American" 279 hp to "Russian tax-optimal "238" horses.

In our country, they ask for 2,990,000 rubles for a car, and its "arsenal" unites: eight airbags, an electric sunroof, a two-zone "climate", a Brembo brake center, front seats with heating and ventilation, bi-xenon headlights, 20 inch alloy wheels, LED taillights and remote engine start.

In addition, the sports car "flaunts" the advanced MyLink multimedia complex with an 8-inch touchscreen, a rearview camera, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay reading and navigation, a premium Bose audio system with nine speakers, wireless charging for a smartphone and the darkness of other relevant equipment.

This car was created in order to take a leading position in its segment and successfully compete with its counterparts, in particular - with Ford mustang... And it is worth noting that the American car did it well and does it. But how has it changed over many decades? More on this below.

1st generation (1967-1969)

The first Chevrolet Camaro was released in 1967. At the presentation of the coupe, the company's marketers immediately identified the Ford Mustang as a rival, which appeared two years earlier and had already managed to gather a large army of fans during this time.

The new Chevrolet Camaro received a memorable body design, which was not devoid of brutality, while the interior received a high-quality finish and high functionality.

On the market, the car is presented in two body modifications:

• Coupe.
• Cabriolet.

Kamara is currently classified as a retrocar. Its price in Russia is on average three million rubles.

Specifications

There are two versions available for purchase:

• With a 3.8 liter engine with 142 power output.
• FROM power unit 6.5 liters, which produces 330 "horses". It is worth noting that this engine was offered only for the Chevrolet Camaro in the SS modification.

The CC version, in addition to a more powerful engine, differs from the usual modification in other wheel disks, black stripes on the body, and sports paraphernalia of the interior. In addition, the front suspension and braking system are reinforced.

Test Drive

Emphasized athleticism

Chevrolet Camaro looks very brutal. From the total mass, the car stands out with round headlights, big wheels with chrome rims, as well as expressive fenders and wide wheel arches. The stern is notable for a spoiler-stamping on the trunk lid, rectangular lights with a separate reverse section.

Combination of sport and luxury

The interior is, first of all, respectable. Business atmosphere is created wood inserts on the dashboard, the central tunnel, as well as many chrome parts. Sporty notes can be traced in the dashboard, which is recessed into the wells, as well as in the steering wheel with three aluminum spokes.

The front seats are equipped with seat belts. They are comfortable to sit on, but lateral support is not enough for active riding. Even three people will sit on the back sofa, but with an increase of no more than 175 centimeters.

The main thing is the motor

Chevrolet Camaro is accelerating recklessly and interestingly. The 6.5-liter engine shows its frenzied temper in the middle rev range, while it growls menacingly, which scares everyone around. The gear ratios of the manual transmission are optimal, however, the clarity of its shifting is not ideal.

The heavy steering wheel, nevertheless, is informative and allows you to keep the car well on a given trajectory. When cornering, oversteer is excessive, which makes the accelerator pedal more careful.

II generation (1970-1981)

The new generation of Chevrolet Camaro was released a year after its predecessor left the assembly line. The car received a more graceful body design, as well as upgraded chassis and motors.

The average cost of a car is 2 million 700 thousand rubles. However, it can be purchased exclusively from private collectors.

Technical part

Under the hood, the regular version of the Chevrolet Camaro has a 4.0-liter engine that develops 155 horsepower. It comes with a four-speed manual gearbox.

There is also a more powerful alternative - a 5.0 liter unit with a return of 200 forces. Together with it, an automatic transmission works in four steps.

The SS modification also received a five-liter engine. However, its power is boosted up to 300 "mares", which are realized through a four-band "automatic".

Specifications:

The "second" Chevrolet Camaro is built on the modernized platform of its predecessor. Based on feedback from automotive journalists, the previous car was seriously inferior to the Ford Mustang in terms of handling. Therefore, in order to improve handling, the design of the front suspension was revised, and more rigid shock absorbers and springs were installed.

Test

Change of priorities

The appearance of the second generation Chevrolet Camaro has lost some of its muscularity, but it has become more vintage and aristocratic. The profile of the car has become more impetuous due to the dropping roof, and the stern is decorated with narrowed brake lights.

Cozy and comfortable

Salon american coupe looks attractive due to colored upholstery door cards and colored plastic. The dashboard is divided into different wells along the dashboard, but at the same time it is well readable and informative. On the center console there is a block of the climate system, as well as a radio receiver - their control is intuitive, so you hardly get distracted from the road.

The driver's seat has a pronounced lateral support, a pleasant profile. It is pleasant to feel in it both with active driving, and with imposing. But on back row a bit cramped even with 170 centimeters in height - there is very little room for knees, a head.

Sports for every day

The five-liter engine, which develops 200 horsepower, feels good both in the city and beyond. Traction is most noticeable at low, medium revs, but at high revs there is also a good pickup. The gear ratios of the automatic transmission are somewhat stretched, although it does its job smoothly and smartly.

The steering wheel is responsive, which allows you to actively maneuver. However, at high speeds, its information content decreases, so it can be problematic to find the position of the front wheels. Roll in corners is moderate, while the suspension is soft and playfully fulfills small, medium bumps, which provides a minimum of shaking.

III generation (1982-1985)

The new Chevrolet Camaro was significantly different from its predecessors and it was not only about design. In the early 80s of the last century, the oil crisis was at its peak, moreover, the content powerful cars was not economically viable due to expensive insurance. Based on this, the company decided to adapt the new generation of its sports car to the realities of the American market and significantly limited the power output of its motors.

However, the developers decided to compensate for this with a futuristic design, rich equipment and a well-tuned chassis. In addition, the convertible returned to the bodywork range, which was very much liked by fans of open-top driving.

Technics

The motor range consists of:

• Unit 2.5 liters with a recoil of 105 forces.
• 2.8-liter engine producing 128 horsepower.
• Engine 5.0 liters. Power is equal to 172 "mares".

Power units are equipped with a five-speed manual or four-speed "automatic".

The chassis is remarkable for its pleasant innovations. Namely, a multi-link suspension is now installed on the rear axle instead of the semi-dependent beam in the previous generation car.

III generation. Restyling (1985-1992)

The updated Chevrolet Camaro delighted its fans with a more aggressive design and improved interior materials. But the main reforms affected the power range - the engines became more powerful.

Now the range of motors looks like this:

• Installation of 2.8 liters with a return of 130 forces.
• The 3.1 liter engine is capable of developing 162 horsepower.
• The power unit is 5.0 liters. Power is equal to 172 "horses".

All power plants are equipped with a four-speed manual transmission or four-band automatic transmission.

We should also talk about the IROC-Z modification. The company decided to release it in 1990, which hinted that it is returning to the origins of the model. The main feature of such a car was a powerful 5.7-liter engine. Its power output was 264 horsepower. The installation worked together with a manual or automatic transmission.

Price policy

The cost of a sports car on the Russian market strongly depends on its technical condition... For example, a well-kept copy will cost at least 2.5 million rubles and can only be purchased from a private collector.

Test Drive

Deliberate aggression

The third generation Chevrolet Camaro looks very menacing and brutal. Chopped body shapes give it this look, front bumper with low overhang, wide wheels, as well as an air intake on the hood. The taut stern is notable for the wedge-shaped brake lights.

Sharp contrast

The interior is less impressive in terms of appearance. Upsetting is the abundance of black and hard plastic, as well as the rustic center console. However, the ergonomics are at a high level and all controls are in close proximity to the driver.

But the driver's seat pleases. It has developed side support rollers, a profile, which provides the body with a reliable fixation. The back sofa is molded strictly for two. Enough legroom, but hanging overhead low roof and rear window.

Unbridled disposition

Despite the relatively moderate power, the 5.7-liter engine has an avalanche-like thrust in almost the entire rev range, so any press on the gas pedal is accompanied by a nervous roar of the exhaust system and a sharp sinking into the back of the seat. Also, the excitement is added by a short-stroke mechanical box, which has high definition switching.

Steering with high information content, pronounced feedback and sensitive "zero" makes it possible to make sharp maneuvers even at low speed. However, a noticeable diagonal buildup, a sharp skid of the rear axle somewhat cool the ardor of an inexperienced driver.

IV generation (1993-1998)

The newest Chevrolet Camaro received a biodesign of the exterior that was fashionable in the 90s, while retaining its recognizable features. In addition to the modern body, the developers have equipped the sports car with more powerful enginesthan it was before, which again aroused the keen interest of fans of the model.

Technics

Under the hood of the Chevrolet Camaro were installed:

• Engine 3.4 liters, delivering 160 forces.
• 3.8 liter engine. Power is equal to 200 "mares".
• The power plant is 5.7 liters with a return of 275 horsepower.

Brief characteristics:

The platform remains the same. However, the front suspension kinematics have been changed, and anti-roll bars, shock absorbers and springs have been reinforced to improve handling.

IV generation. Restyling (1998-2002)

The restyled modification of the Chevrolet Camaro received different bumpers, body kit and lighting optics. Inside, the quality of finishing materials has improved.

The power row now looks like this:

• 3.8 liter engine with 193.208 horsepower.
• The power unit is 5.7 liters. Able to issue 310 or 330 forces.

Market price

Unfortunately, finding a decent copy of the model on sale is problematic. Many of them arrive in poor technical condition.

Test

Everyday suit

The "fourth" Chevrolet Camaro is attractive, but there is little aggression in its appearance. The body is devoid of sharp features and swiftness, and rounded shapes prevail in the design. However, the bulging bonnet and wide wheel arches still make it clear that this car is capable of delivering driving emotions.

Simple but functional

The salon is decorated without frills, but assembled quite neatly. The steering wheel is equipped with buttons for controlling the climate system, an audio system, so there is no need to be distracted from the process of driving.

The instrument panel with large scales is perfectly readable, and on the right side there is a small display on-board computer... On the center console, you can see a cassette radio, as well as a climate system with three controls.

An explosion of emotions

The most interesting engine in the Chevrolet Camaro range is a 5.7-liter unit with 330 horsepower. Such an engine delivers frantic thrust at medium revs and immediately accelerates even from very high speeds. However, the automatic transmission is able to reduce the degree of excitement with its leisurely switchings.

The steering wheel is responsive to the driver's commands, and also poured with a pleasant weight. This allows you to confidently maneuver, but turns must be done more carefully because of the tangible buildup.

V generation (2009-2013)

After a long hiatus in the fight against its main competitor, the Ford Mustang, Chevrolet decided to get involved in the battle again and presented the world with a completely new Camaro. The car received a spectacular body design with retro motives, as well as rich equipment, roomy salon... However, the main trump card of the American sports car was its affordable price, which turned out to be significantly lower than that of competitors.

Specifications

The power range consists of two motors:

• 3.6 liter engine, developing 328 horsepower.
• Installation of 6.2 liters. Power return is equal to 405 forces.

Both motors are equipped with a six-speed automatic transmission (for the European market). For the North American market, a six-speed manual transmission is available as an alternative.

Data in brief:

The fifth generation Chevrolet Camaro is designed on a GM platform called the Alpha. The sports car shared this base with the Cadillac CTS. The suspension of both axles is multi-link, and the drive is carried out to the rear wheels.

V generation. Restyling (2013—2015)

In 2013, a planned update of the Chevrolet Camaro followed. The presentation of the novelty took place in video format. The restyling has made the car's design more attractive with LED running lights in the head optics, as well as a redesigned center console inside the cabin.

The motor range has been replenished with the following installations:

• 6.2 liter engine with 426 horsepower. Works together with a six-speed manual gearbox.
• The power unit is 6.2 liters, which is capable of delivering 589 forces. There is a choice of manual or automatic transmission with six steps.

Price policy

Both versions of the sports car are presented on the Russian market. However, the price for the upgraded version is greatly overpriced even when purchased from hand.

Test Drive

Retro style

Chevrolet Camaro easily stands out from the general stream. This is assisted by a striking body design with wide fenders and wheel arches, a low roof and a taut stern. LED lighting optics lend respectability to the American sports car, while voluminous exhaust pipes, massive bumpers and a low body kit hint at outstanding dynamic capabilities.

Avant-garde atmosphere

The salon is neatly assembled. However, the finishing materials are not of the highest quality - the hard plastic of the dashboard, as well as the pseudo-aluminum inserts, upset.

This can be compensated for by the interesting design of the center console, on which there are four sections of secondary analog readings of the motor systems. In addition, there is a multimedia and entertainment complex (rich versions), on the screen of which navigation and a rear view camera are displayed.

Fast but comfortable

The 6.2-liter unit produces 405 horsepower and this is enough for all occasions. The motor is elastic and traction throughout the entire rev range, and the accelerator pedal is very sensitive, so any pressure on it is accompanied by a sharp push in the back.

The chassis is compromised. The Chevrolet Camaro cannot boast of perfected habits during sharp maneuvering due to tangible rolls, uninformative steering. But it is able to provide a good ride on small bumps, which makes long trips relatively comfortable.

VI generation (2015 - present)

The current Chevrolet Camaro is very similar in appearance to its predecessor, but upon closer examination, it is noticeable that this is absolutely new car... The interior has undergone significant changes - a new multimedia complex has been installed, the instrument panel has been redesigned. The technical reforms are also pleasantly surprising.

How much does an American sports car cost? A compartment is imported to the Russian market only by order, so its price is purely individual.

Specifications

Placed under the hood:

• Engines 2.0 liter. Give out 238, 275 forces.
• Unit 3.6 liters with a return of 335 "horses".
• 6.2 liter engine with 455, 660 horsepower.

By default, all motors are equipped with a six-speed manual gearbox. An eight-band "automatic" is available in rich trim levels, and a 660-horsepower unit works in conjunction with a ten-speed automatic transmission.

Brief data:

The car is designed on the modernized GM Alpha platform. The suspension kinematics have been revised, while the shock absorber struts are adaptive and have several modes of operation.

Test

Cut the image

The previous Chevrolet Camaro came out so successful in terms of design that the new generation almost completely retained the old stylistic concept of the model. As before, wide and convex fenders, expressive wheel arches, a convex bonnet and a low roof are striking. At the same time, the LED optics have become more expressive, intriguing, and the front bumper has a huge "mouth" of the air intake.

More effects

The salon is interesting and functional. At the same time, the quality of materials is at a very decent level - the panels are upholstered in leather with neat stitching, there are inserts made of real aluminum.

The dashboard with a huge display of secondary readings pleases with high information content, as well as colorful design. The center console houses a modern multimedia complex that supports Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and displays navigation, a picture from the rear view camera.

Moderate aggression

The supercharged 2.0-liter engine with a return of 238 forces pulls well throughout the entire rev range, but acceleration occurs without pronounced pickups and a formidable roar. Automatic box changes steps quickly, although it lacks a smoother operation.

The steering will satisfy the vast majority of active drivers who rarely choose to racing tracks... The steering wheel is informative, quite responsive, and there are practically no rolls when cornering. However, in slow turns, you need to significantly limit the speed, otherwise the car will drive the front axle out of the trajectory.

Photos of all generations of Chevrolet Camaro:

The Detroit International Auto Show in January 2006 saw the premiere of an all-new concept car that heralded the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro muscle car. The serial version of the "American legend" appeared before the public in 2008 in Las Vegas, and the next year it reached car dealerships. A year and a half later, at the autumn auto show in Los Angeles, the presentation of the open version of the car, which received the Convertible prefix, was held.

In 2012, at a bride show in New York, the debut of the updated car took place, which, in addition to a refreshed appearance, received new equipment and an increased palette of body colors. In 2013, at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the world was shown a restyled convertible, which improved in the same vein as the coupe.

The design of the "fifth" Chevrolet Camaro surprisingly combines the individual features of the legendary predecessor from the seventies and the modern sports style inherent in the typical American "muscle car".
Aggressive, predatory, muscular - each of these epithets is perfect to describe the appearance of a sports car. The spectacular look is reinforced by the vicious gaze of the head optics peeping out from under the edge of the long hood, the chopped shapes of the rear fenders, lED lights, two "muzzles" of the exhaust system and beautiful wheels measuring 20 inches.

"Camaro" of the 5th generation is a large car: 4836 mm in length, 1918 mm in width and 1377 mm in height. Against this background, the equipped weight of 1687-1770 kg is not perceived as something out of the ordinary. The wheelbase of the "muscle car" is 2852 mm, and the gap from the bottom to the roadway (clearance) is 118-122 mm. The "open" version of the Convertible is slightly larger - 5 mm longer and 12 mm higher, and ground clearance it has 3 mm less.

The interior of the Chevrolet Camaro 5 has a spartan atmosphere, and hard and inexpensive plastics are used everywhere, although the seats are dressed in good-quality leather. Square "shafts" are hidden behind the multifunctional steering wheel borrowed from the Cruz dashboardthat look original, but do not shine with information content. In the shape of the center console, space notes are traced, and it is crowned with a color display of the MyLink multimedia complex and a stylish air conditioning control unit (there is no "climate" even for an extra charge). Privilege expensive versions - four "loopholes" additional devices at the very bottom of the torpedo, showing important information.

"American" is equipped with comfortable and dense armchairs, but their lateral support is not expressed enough. The rear seats are more suitable for children or short adults - the stock of space is limited both in length and in height.

The trunk of the "Camaro" is small - only 320 liters, and instead of a "spare wheel" there is only a repair kit.

Specifications. For the Russian market, the "fifth Camaro" was equipped with two types of gasoline power plants, each of which docked with a 6-band "automatic" Hydra-Matic 6L80 and a rear-wheel drive transmission.

• Under the hood base case installed atmospheric V6 unit with a volume of 3.6 liters, equipped with a 24-valve timing and direct injection. Its maximum output is 323 horsepower at 6800 rpm and 375 Nm of torque, available from 4800 rpm.
• "Top" versions "sport" a 6.2-liter V-shaped "eight" with an aluminum block of cylinders, phase shifters at the inlet and Eaton technology, which turns off some of the "pots" at low loads, in the arsenal of which a herd of 400 "horses" available at 5900 rpm, and 554 Nm of peak thrust at 4300 rpm.

With the "junior" engine, the coupe develops 100 km / h after 6.2 seconds, with the "senior" engine - 1.5 seconds faster. The maximum speed in both cases is limited to 250 km / h. Due to its greater mass, the convertible is slower in acceleration dynamics by more than 1 second, but it was not officially available on the Russian market. In the combined cycle of movement "Camaro" costs 10.9-14.1 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers.

The fifth generation Chevrolet Camaro is based on the GM Zeta platform, where the engine is shifted behind the front axle to achieve better weight distribution (52:48 in favor of the front end). MacPherson struts are installed in the front, a four-link structure in the back. An electric booster works in the steering drive, and all wheels are aggregated with ventilated disc brakes (on the front axle their default diameter is 321 mm) and aBS systems and EBD.

Options and prices. On the Russian market, the "Camaro" coupe was sold in two trim levels - 2LT with a V6 engine and 2SS with a V-shaped "figure eight" under the hood. For the first modification, the minimum requested was 3,900,000 rubles, for the second - 4,600,000 rubles.
The list of standard equipment includes front and side airbags, air conditioning, cruise control, MyLink multimedia complex, leather interior, full power accessories, heated front seats, premium audio system and 20-inch alloy wheels. The "top" version, in addition to a more powerful engine, is supplemented by bi-xenon headlights.
