Now we know that it will be 28 per cent stiffer than the current model, while being about 200 pounds lighter. Every Camaro model is known for its powerful nature, historic evolution and continuous advancements, but it’s the 2016 version that has fans and car enthusiasts itching with excitement. Why? Because it will take the vehicle into its sixth generation.
This new and improved reproduction is promised to offer an optimal driving experience, performance and maximum fuel efficiency. Although the 2015 version is an extremely accomplished car in its own right, Camaro experts have pinpointed various operations that require improvement for the 2016 model. This leaves owners and fans of the 2015 model wondering how they could possibly advance the 2016 edition. So far, we know that the 2016 will offer modern components, inside and out.

Specs
The exact specifications of the 2016 Camaro have yet to be released. However, the new model could provide various engines such as the 2.0-litre turbocharged I4 LTG, 3.6-litre naturally aspirated V6 LFX, or the 3.6 litre twin turbo V6 LF3.

The new 2016 edition will use versions of General Motors’ improved rear-wheel-drive vehicle design called Alpha. This design was used for the Cadillac 2013 ATS as well as the 2014 CTS. This new layout was chosen to assist in lessening the weight of the 2016 Camaro by 150-300 pounds.
