New 2010 Chevrolet Camaro

After an eight-year hiatus, the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro returns with all of the muscle, power and distinctive classic style that made the world fall in love with it 40 years ago.

Using the 1969 Camaro as a template, Chevrolet incorporates a futuristic design to fuse both past and present visual concepts. Now, when it comes to what the Camaro is best known for—power, you’ll be glad to know that some things never change.  A 3.6-liter, 304-horsepower direct-injected V-6 cranks out 273 pounds-feet of torque, while a 6.2-liter, 400-horsepower V-8 pumps out 395 pounds-feet of torque. Now if that isn’t enough power for you, the 6.2-liter, 426-horsepower V-8 goes from 0 to 60 in 4.7 seconds. A six-speed manual transmission comes standard and a six-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters is optional. There are five trim levels: the LS, 1LT, 2LT come with a V-6, and the 1SS and 2SS are fitted with V-8’s. The Camaro receives excellent fuel economy with 16-18 mpg in the city and 24-29 mpg on the highway and competes with other muscle cars like the Ford Mustang and Dodge Challenger.

With a standard dual exhaust, honeycomb grille, long hood and short rear deck, the Camaro is as menacing as ever. Add available 18-, 19-, 20- or 21-inch wheels and you’re looking good.  On the inside, the Camaro is totally unique. The dash, steering wheel, radio unit and controls are different than any other GM vehicle. XM Satellite Radio is standard, while a USB port for your mobile MP3 players and Bluetooth connectivity are available. When it comes to the tunes, a nine-speaker, 245-watt Boston Acoustics sound system proves to be almost as powerful as the monstrous engines. Choose between cloth or leather upholstery and heated front seats for maximum comfort.

When it comes to safety, the Camaro is on point. Side curtain airbags, front side-impact airbags, daytime running lamps, traction control, electronic stability control and an antilock braking system with brake assist comes standard. All Camaros come with one free year of OnStar’s Safe and Sound Plan, which includes: Vehicle Diagnostics, Remote Door Unlock, Stolen Vehicle Location Assistance, Roadside Assistance and RideAssist, which will call you a cab if you are incapable of driving.

Blaze past the competition in the all-new 2010 Chevrolet Camaro, which blends old and new schools to give muscle car enthusiasts the best of both worlds.
