Chevrolet Camaro

Every surface of the Camaro ZL1 is designed for maximum downforce. Massive upper and lower grille openings allow maximum cooling while aerodynamic enhancements like the unique bonnet, with carbon-fibre composite hood air extractor, and wing-style rear spoiler, help reduce lift and increase downforce to keep the Camaro ZL1 glued to the tarmac.

The aggressive front splitter and rocker mouldings complete this sophisticated aero package.

From the High Intensity Discharge headlamps at the front to the black-grained diffuser and vent at the rear, and the stunning 20”, 10-split-spoke forged alloy wheels in Dark Graphite, everything about this iconic machine takes high-performance to a higher level.

Dual zone automatic climate control, a 9-speaker BOSE premium audio and 24 colour Interior Spectrum Lighting, enhance the interior ambience of both models while wireless phone charging (for supported devices) is provided in the ZL1.

Remote start, on the two automatic transmission variants, allows the vehicle's engine to be started from outside the vehicle. When activated, the climate control system will also deploy the previous settings.

A flat-bottom, sports profile steering wheel, leather-wrapped on the Camaro 2SS and sueded microfibre on the Camaro ZL1, delivers ultimate grip and gives the driver more leg room, especially when quick heel/toe shifting is required. The gear-shifters in both models are similarly wrapped.

New to the 2019 Camaro is Chevrolet's next generation Infotainment 3 system expanding driver and passenger connectivity and including an 8" diagonal high-definition colour touch-screen, Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ for compatible phones, voice-activated technology for radio and phone, Bluetooth® audio streaming for two users as well as the ability to create multiple user profiles.

Under the bonnet of the new Camaro 2SS lurks Chevrolet's 6.2L LT1 direction injection V8 with Variable Valve Timing and Active Fuel Management (AFM). Like the ZL1, the 2SS features an external heavy-duty oil to air cooler which helps the engine generate peak performance efficiently. Press the start button and the roar from the quad-outlet, bi-modal performance exhaust lets you know you have up to an impressive 339kW of power and 617Nm of torque at your disposal. To make the most of all that power, the 2SS comes with the same transmissions as the ZL1. Drivers can opt for the 10-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters, custom launch control and Line-Lock, or the short-throw, six-speed manual transmission with Active Rev Matching.

The Line-Lock feature lets you lock the front wheels to enable the rear wheels to spin (and heat), warming the tyres for maximum grip.

(N.B. This feature is intended for use during closed-course track events only).

The track-inspired Brembo brake package featured on the ZL1 boasts 6-piston monobloc front calipers and 390mm x 36mm two-piece front rotors for superior stopping performance and reduced fade.

Custom Launch Control modifies engine torque for optimised acceleration off the line. It allows you to adjust both the launch rpm and rear-wheel slippage, through the Driver Information Centre, to keep the rear tyres spinning at correct speed during launch.

The 2019 Camaro 2SS model features the following exciting upgrades:

• 6-speed manual transmission with Active Rev Matching and Launch Control.
• 10-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission with Custom Launch Control, Line-Lock and Lift-Foot Gear Hold technology.
