** Based on 2013 Camaro SS
Performance
The Camaro SS is said to have better track performance compared to its predecessor. This comes with an impressive 426-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine. Those who avail of the coupe version will also benefit from the 1LE handling package which is said to improve track performance.
Exterior
Chevrolet emphasized that they wanted to differentiate the V6 from the V8 models of their new Camaro lineup. You can see this in the styling they now have, specifically with the hood extractor.
For the V8 model, you can see that the hood extractor is functional and allows for better air cooling for the bigger engine. This also reduces engine heat and gives the car better downforce, preventing aerodynamic lift. The RS package has a bit more flair as it shows off a revised front fascia that comes with fog lamps.
The Camaro SS also comes with a new rear deck that comes with LED tail lamps. The larger lower grill allows for more efficient cooling for the vehicle.
While not a lot of Chevy enthusiasts paid any mind to the new Camaro SS, it still received positive reviews. The team behind the new Camaro lineup are said to have been too busy with the new Z/28 that they left the Camaro SS high and dry.
The options for the Camaro SS include Recaro sports seats among other things. The Camaro SS is one car to look out for the coming year.
