Mustang GT what now?All 2016 Chevrolet Camaro engines are available with either a six-speed manual transmission or an eight-speed automatic (Hydra-Matic 8L45 on the 4 and 6-cylinder, 8L90 on the V8). Depending on the model, vehicle mass has been reduced by up to 200 pounds (90.7 kilos) thanks to the GM Alpha platform. Look forward to just over 3,000 lbs (1,360 kg) in base trim. Although two Cadillac models employ the same rigid yet lightweight vehicle architecture, the Camaro's Alpha platform boasts 70 percent unique components, engineered for better performance before all else.“Redesigning the Camaro is thrilling and challenging all at once, but the secret is to offer something more,” declared Mark Reuss, General Motors executive VP of Product Development. “For Camaro enthusiasts, it retains iconic design cues and offers even more performance. For a new generation of buyers, the 2016 Camaro incorporates our most innovative engineering ideas with finely honed performance and leading design.”On the technological front, engineers gave the sixth-gen Camaro an all-new Drive Mode Selector that employs four operating modes: Snow/Ice (if you live in Chicago), Tour, Sport and a Track setting exclusive to the Camaro SS. Inside there are two 8-inch diagonal screens and an Interior Spectrum Lighting feature that offers 24 different ambient lighting effects. 10 exterior colors and 5 interior color combos are available.As we expected since late 2014, the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro is slated to start assembly at GM's Lansing Grand River Plant in Michigan later this year, with first deliveries slated for late 2015.
