‘Chevrolet Camaro will be replaced by an electric sedan’





The Camaro is one of the cornerstones of the American car industry. Along with the Ford Mustang and Dodge Challenger, the model represents the motto of the old-fashioned muscle car: offering a lot of performance at a low price.



However, that idea doesn’t seem to work anymore for Chevy. Last year, US sales fell 38.3 percent to 29,775 copies.

A deadly dip

Although the disappointing figures can be explained in part by the chip shortage and the impact of the corona crisis on the economy, the Camaro’s competitors were hit hard.


Dodge sold almost twice as many Challengers (52,955) at the same time. Ford did best with 61,090 sales. Since the Challenger is about to be made into a fossil, it can’t get old: the Camaro even received an update last year to fix the ill-received facelift.

The Camaro has been cancelled

The timing of those declining numbers is pretty bad for the Camaro. The parent company General Motors is in the process of making major changes to… burning by burning identify electrical models.

According to Automotive News The Camaro will die in transition. After all, the development of the seventh generation of the muscle car has already been canceled. AN expect the car to mess around until 2024 without major updates.

Tesla-killer

The decline in popularity of the Camaro signals to GM that things must change. Classic V8 sports cars are out. To attract the attention of the modern buyer to see, the General will therefore be working on the Tesla sport killer and the Camaro’s styling influence. The move is similar to Ford’s Mustang Mach E, but the Chevy won’t be an SUV. Instead, the electric Chevrolet will take the form of a sports sedan.



A little dangerous

Unlike Ford and Dodge, GM has less risk with the switch. The Camaro is not the cash cow that the Mustang and Challenger are. Financially, the decision makes perfect sense. The possible prevention of a few complex gasoline odorants is certainly acceptable.

The trucks keep blowing

There is no question of the exact type of electric model at this time. The highly profitable transportation industry is not ready to change yet.

Without worrying about the strict rules of Euro 7, Americans will keep big petrol and diesel engines in their cars for as long as possible. trucks keep on putting. A really sporty model with a bang LT However, the V8 will not be available in the future.
