Following on from the global premiere of its fixed-roof sibling, the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible has been teased in short feature prior to its debut on June 24 – just two days away, folks. Nothing concrete was divulged on the convertible variant of the sixth-generation pony car, though.
The short spot begins with a view of the interior. Shortly after, the roof gets dropped to reveal the vast expanse of the sky above – and that’s pretty much it. The description in the video marks this model as “the most innovative Camaro Convertible ever.” We’re not too sure what Chevrolet is trying to convey here so it’s best that we sit back and wait for the full reveal soon enough.
Under the bonnet, the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible will most definitely come equipped with the same engine options as those seen on the coupe variant. For starters, drivers will get a turbocharged 2.0 litre four-cylinder mill with 275 hp and 400 Nm of torque. Further up the range is a 3.6 litre V6 engine that produces a total of 335 hp and 385 Nm of twist.
At the very top sits the SS model with a 6.2 litre LT1 V8 engine, first seen on the Corvette C7 Stingray. In this application, the mill pumps out a total of 455 hp and 617 Nm of torque. The 2.0 and 3.6 litre mills are paired to either a six-speed manual transmission or a Hydra-Matic 8L45 eight-speed automatic – the LT1 engine is mated to either a six-speed manual or a Hydra-Matic 8L90 eight-speed auto with paddle shifters.

No wonder why American cars fail big time in Malaysia. When all over the world they are making smaller CC cars which translates to better economy, US makes 6.2 litre engine. Trash car.
Now you know why Chevrolet is close to dying and failing in Malaysia.
