2010 Chevrolet Camaro due on July 21
The 2010 Chevrolet Camaro, which looks almost like the prototype, is going to be revealed on July 21, and these are the first images. Powered by a 296 hp 3.6L V6 or a 416 hp 6.2L V8, and riding on a shortened rear-driven platform with four-wheel independent suspension, the new Camaro already makes the Mustang seem outdated by four decades.
The Camaro will come in LS, LT and SS trim, equipped with either a 6-speed manual gearbox or a 6-speed automatic. The V8 engine will feature cylinder deactivation to help fuel economy. StabiliTrak traction control is standard, while front Brembo brakes are available on the SS version.
The interior is a letdown, with a truck-like dashboard peppered with an overkill of low bulging gauges. Shown here is the leather interior, with blue LED lighting. The cabin looks to be of better materials than the hard plastics in the Mustang.
The Camaro will be in showrooms by early 2009. A convertible version will also be available.
