DETROIT, MI - Chevrolet on Wednesday pulled the cloak off the drop-top version of its all-new, 2016 Camaro.

With the convertible Camaro's arrival, Chevy said it has some segment firsts, including the ability to open or close the top at speeds up to 30 miles per hour, remote opening with a key fob and a fully automatic operation with latches that release and secure the top.

The non-convertible, sixth generation of Chevy's signature pony car was first unveiled last month on Belle Isle in Detroit. It's faster and 200 pounds lighter than its predecessor.

The 2016 Camaro will come equipped with 2.0L turbo that gets 275 horsepower and can move the car from 0-60 mph in less than 6 seconds. It will also get a 3.6L V-6 that will get an estimated 335 horsepower, and a 6.2L V-8 in the SS trim that gets an estimated 455 hp.

The six-gen Camaro goes on sale in the fourth quarter of this year.

General Motors is hiring back 500 second-shift jobs at its Lansing Grand River Assembly Plant to help build the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro.

GM temporarily laid off 350 workers at the plant in November. The second-shift workers will begin late this summer.

The current, fifth-generation Camaro is built at a GM plant in Ontario. With the new, sixth-generation Camaro's arrival in Lansing, GM is investing $175 million in its facility there for new equipment and new paint systems, including those for Camaro-specific colors: Summit White, Bright Yellow, and Red Hot.

GM also builds its Cadillac ATS and CTS models at the Lansing plant.
