Oshawa, Ontario (Tuesday, September 22, 2015) – Less weight and more power is the combination for performance success, and engineers of the 2016 Camaro have the numbers to prove it. With weight savings of up to 177 kilograms (390 lbs.), the all-new Camaro delivers performance numbers that reset the benchmark for the segment.
The 2016 Camaro offers higher levels of performance, technology and refinement, starting at a suggested retail price in Canada of $28,245, plus a destination freight charge of $1,650 for the Camaro 1LT, while the most powerful Camaro SS ever starts at $42,150 for the 1SS.
“The all-new 2016 Camaro will reset the bar in the segment with even greater levels of performance, new technologies not found on any other car in the segment, and more choices that enable customers to take personalization farther than ever before.” said Shane Peever, Chevrolet brand manager for Canada. “The 1LT trim level has long been one of the most popular for Camaro and we expect it will be even more popular as the 2016 Camaro 1LT is priced $2,575 less than the 2015 model and offers significantly more standard features and technologies.”
New standard features that were either unavailable or optional on the 2015 model include:
- Chevrolet MyLink with Apple CarPlay capability
- OnStar 4G LTE connectivity with Wi-Fi hotspot
- Driver Mode Selector with Snow/Ice, Tour and Sport modes on all models and Track mode on SS
