2021 Camaro Preview and Trim Level Update Via Motor Authority

As the days of spring are eminent and you can hear the various types of engine roar here in Memphis during March, the coming of the new Camaro is going to be a topic of grave excitement! The biggest news from the staff on duty at Motor Authority this month was about the availability of the 10-speed automatic on 2021 Camaro SS models with the 1LE Track Performance Package. Before this, the package only came with the 6-speed manual when properly equipped on the SS.

For the exterior, there is the option of a new Wild Cherry Tincoat color for the convertible top. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto now are included with wireless capability, and you'll be able to enjoy wireless charging on 2SS and 3LT trim levels. The engine lineup remains delightfully the same, beginning with a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-4 rated at 275 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque, followed up by a 3.6-liter V6 cranking out 355 horsepower and 284 lb-ft of torque.

When you step up to the V8 department, the first option is a 6.2-liter number with 455 horsepower and 455 lb-ft of torque, and the range-topper is the 6.2-liter supercharged V8, yielding 650 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque, reserved under careful wraps for the Camaro ZL1. Everyone here at Chuck Hutton Chevy of Memphis expects sales of the 2021 Camaro to begin in the fall, as we happily celebrate the 6th generation of this fearless and fast muscle number. The Redline Edition and RS packages will now expand their availability to the LT1 trim, and as often as a battery-powered Camaro for the 7th generation has seen rumors, it may be a few years until anyone in the industry finds out if it is really true.

Watching this very cool video from Autoblog.com, you get a first-rate sampling of the Camaro's startup and engine note. Those two pipes on the lower left are the ones we have always been in love with, and the one that stack up next to the Dodge Challenger or Ford Mustang on any given day! First appearing on roads in 1966, the Camaro has been ruling the streets valiantly for 52 years with the strut and swagger that only a number this flexed-out can attain. The ZL1 is as the folks on staff at Carfacta say “The true monster, and beast in the entire  muscle car lineup.” Now possessing a retro-cool that is still infinitely modern, this review from Chevycarusa.com  also depicts just in how many ways it is superior to the best any star-studded rival has to offer up!
