The closed sixth-generation Camaro is already more than a month after its premiere, and the initial often critical reactions are slowly starting to dull. Therefore, with the arrival of summer, Chevrolet released the first set of information about the Camaro Convertible .
If you're expecting some major difference from the fixed-top version, you'll probably be disappointed. In an exaggeration, Chevrolet only replaced the sheet metal with a canvas , composed of several layers, whose control is provided by an electro-hydraulic system. It is even at such an advanced level that when you are standing in the parking lot , just press the button on the key and the roof will fold itself. If you don't want to play around with a real remote-controlled car, the roof can be folded up to a speed of 48 km/h. A set of anti-noise and thermal insoles is a matter of course.
The range of power units, as well as the 90-kilogram diet or interior, corresponds to the previously introduced coupe. The basis of the offer is the LT model with a two-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine with an output of 279 hp and a torque of 400 Nm between 3000 and 4500 rpm. In addition to the four-cylinder, the Camaro LT is also available with a 3.5-liter six-cylinder with an output of 340 horsepower and a torque of 385 Nm. The rear wheels are driven, in this particular case via a six-speed manual transmission or an eight-speed Hydra-Matic 8L45 automatic with paddles under the steering wheel. The highlight of the range is traditionally the SS version with a 6.2-liter eight-cylinder LT1 with a power of 461 hp and a torque of 617 Nm. In this case, the rear wheels are driven by a six-speed manual transmission with Active Rev Management technology, an eight-speed Hydra-Matic 8L90 automatic transmission with paddles under the steering wheel and a cylinder deactivation system will be available for an additional fee.
