The latest teaser photo of the all-new 2016 Chevrolet Camaro reveals a new angular look for the coupe that targets the Ford Mustang and Dodge Challenger.

General Motors also said the 2016 Camaro logged 350 hours of wind-tunnel testing aimed at improving the car's aerodynamics.

"Drivers of the Camaro SS will experience a marked improvement in reduced aerodynamic lift," the automaker said in a statement on Monday.

The Camaro will arrive at Chevrolet dealerships in late fall, following a debut on May 16 during a public event at Detroit's Belle Isle Park. Pricing has not been announced.

The Camaro aerodynamics team aimed at improved performance, stability, cooling and lower wind noise, without sacrificing fuel economy.

"To balance these different aerodynamic targets, we tested literally hundreds of changes on the new Camaro, millimeters at a time," said Kirk Bennion, Camaro exterior design manager, in a statement.

The initial design called for the lower grille bars to be set at a 20-degree angle to the horizon. But after testing, the team improved engine-cooling airflow by 1 percent by shifting the angle to 13 degrees, a change that achieved the airflow target while maintaining the original grille design.

Instead of a traditional airdam to cut aerodynamic lift, the team developed a flush belly pan that stretches from the front grille to the center of the vehicle.

"Paired with small 'spats' forward of the front tires, the smooth underbody helps reduce total lift by 30 percent, while also reducing aerodynamic drag," GM said.

.......and if it was in my price range, I would have picked that up instead of the Z! (v8 or go home, no one wants a V6 Camaro :-P)

The Camaro with the posted stats won't be out till fall. :tiphat:

Not sure if I can own a Muscle car over a Z. But I can own a muscle car along side a Z.

Leaked!

Still does not look good!

Was just going to post.... Thanks


It's not ugly, but the Mustang is NICER LOOKING! The profile it showed as a TEASER looked better. Pretty much looks like the renderings.

The hood and the front are pretty good. The rest of it is completely forgettable and vanilla just like 98% of GM's aesthetic design.

I'm feeling way too much Malibu when I look at it, which should be the farthest thing from my mind.

Technologically and performance-wise, it's going to be significant. It just sucks that it looks so bleeding boring.

I'm hoping this is just a 3 year body style? Maybe they decided to keep it simple because everything under the BODY is so dramatically changed???

The rear is not doing it justice...I love the front though! They are unveiling it at 4PM tomorrow.

UGH I just noticed the placement of the SS tag on the front... it's on the mouth rather than next to the headlights. BOOOOOO. It looks slapped on there like the VTEC GT-R stickers I see on Civics. Bad form!

You guys may hate it, but the Camaro outsells the Z and the Mustang. Somebody is buying them.

:iagree:
There's sport car guys and muscle car guys. Real muscle car guys choose the camaro because they bring the right combo to the table. They've always been slightly more refined than stangs and had a better edge in handling. Mustangs are the father of muscle though and they dont fall far behind to the Camaro. I think sales numbers truly reflect tthe placement in performance between the 2.

Approximately 14 more hours bro-hams!!! I need a better view!!!
