Overview Few cars can capture the joy of driving as well as the iconic Chevrolet Camaro. Its energetic engines and exceptional chassis create an experience that only more expensive sports cars can match. The Camaro is motivated by one of three engines, most notably a 335-hp V-6 and a powerful 455-hp V-8. The base four-cylinder is less inspiring. While a convertible version is available, only the coupes can be paired with the high-performance 1LE package. These formidable driving machines have track-focused equipment and a distinct appearance. While its archrival, the Ford Mustang, has retaken the pony-car throne after our annual 10Best evaluation, the Camaro remains a pure and accomplished pony. What's New for 2019? The Camaro receives a mid-cycle refresh for 2019 that includes another transmission option, a new performance variant, and a polarizing front-end. While every model has revised front and rear styling, the V-8 models are the most distinct, with a gaping grille design that improves airflow but hurts some eyeballs. The V-8 also now pairs with a 10-speed automatic transmission that includes launch control and line-lock features to perfect burnouts and takeoffs. The four-cylinder coupe is now available with the tremendous 1LE package, which instantly makes it a legit driver's car. Every model adds Chevy's new touchscreen software called Infotainment 3, which the company says is more intuitive and customizable. The available ambient interior lighting has also been updated. Finally, the 2SS coupe adds forward-collision warning and a better rearview mirror and Which One to BuyLS$25,995LT$26,495SS$37,995 There's a Camaro for everyone, which is a big reason that it's so popular. While we're fans of the feisty V-6 model, we also love the raucous energy provided by the beefy V-8. In the end, pick which one you can afford, and you won't be disappointed. The 1LE package transforms all models into certified track stars, so we'd check that box. The package pairs exclusively with a six-speed manual transmission, and its equipment varies between the three engines. Every Camaro 1LE has a satin-black hood, a three-piece rear spoiler that adds significant downforce, and other functional distinctions. In addition to a specially tuned suspension and unique 20-inch wheels with wider, stickier tires, the V-8 SS 1LE model receives coolers for the differential, engine oil, and transmission, Brembo six-piston front-brake calipers, electronic limited-slip differential, and Recaro front sport Transmission, and Performance Likes V-6 and V-8 powertrains each have distinct character and sound, incredible performance value, transformative 1LE package. Dislikes Four-cylinder is overshadowed by the other engines. Every Camaro SS features Chevy's iconic small-block V-8, with 455 horsepower and 455 lb-ft of torque. Its linear power delivery and chest-compressing acceleration are enhanced by the optional dual-mode exhaust, which erupts with a sharp bark at startup and thunderous sounds during wide-open-throttle blasts. The standard six-speed manual transmission maintains the enthusiast spirit, and the two automatic transmissions snap off swift shifts. The base 275-hp four-cylinder isn't slow—we tested a manual model that made it to 60 mph in an earnest seconds. But uneven throttle responses and unpleasant, unsporting sounds accompanied its dull demeanor. On the other hand, upgrading to the 335-hp naturally aspirated V-6 completely changes the car's character. The gutsy V-6 has its own distinctly searing soundtrack and redeems generations of ho-hum astonishing chassis provides a car-and-driver connection see what we did there? that's unparalleled among pony cars. It's taut on the track yet relaxed on regular roads. Paired with the 1LE , the coupes transcend their class—competing with cars costing much, much more. The Camaro's solid structure engenders precise handling and a quality feel. Its well-balanced ride is firm enough to be agile on curvy roads yet still compliant on rough surfaces. The electrically assisted power-steering system has reasonable effort and accurate responses. The Camaro completes the performance trifecta with excellent brakes. The brake pedal consistently provides progressive and assuring responses. The 1LE models get even more powerful, track-ready Brembo Economy and Real-World MPG The Chevy's four-cylinder engine has the highest EPA estimates, while the V-6 and V-8 versions performed well in our real-world testing. We've tested each of the Camaro's three available engines—paired with the six-speed manual—and they were all within 1 mpg plus or minus of their EPA highway estimates. Interior, Infotainment, and Cargo Likes Optional Recaro front seats are supportive without being restrictive, effortless touchscreen operation. Dislikes Notoriously bad outward visibility, almost unusable back seat, comically small trunk opening. The Camaro interior is an improvement versus the previous generation, with better materials and a more modern look. Its comfortable front seats and straightforward layout are high points, but its torturously small back seat and compromised visibility inhibit livability. An optional head-up display is useful and not offered on the Dodge Challenger or Mustang. The Camaro also can be equipped with customizable ambient interior lighting, which adds a cool Camaro has a user-friendly touchscreen that supports Chevy's latest infotainment software—called Infotainment 3. While the large touchscreen fills the space better, the plastic bezel looks chintzy, and its downward angle is awkward. Otherwise, its mix of controls and organized menus is appreciated. Chevy's setup has everything standard—intuitive controls, attractive menus, responsive feedback, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto Camaro outshines its rivals on the track and in the fun-to-drive department but is outmatched in terms of cargo space and storage. It held the least amount of carry-on luggage, and it has even less interior storage than its already stingy rivals. Safety and Driver-Assistance FeaturesThe Camaro earned a five-star crash-test rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration NHTSA and average scores from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety IIHS. Still, it has fewer driver assists than either of its pony-car rivals. Thankfully, the Chevy can be equipped with blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert to aid with its atrocious rear visibility. Key safety features includeAvailable blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert Available forward-collision warning Available rear parking sensorsWarranty and Maintenance Coverage The Camaro has a warranty that compares favorably with the Mustang and Challenger. The Chevy also provides the first maintenance service free of charge. Limited warranty covers 3 years or 36,000 miles Powertrain warranty covers 5 years or 60,000 miles Complimentary maintenance is covered for the first visit
