  • 2016 Chevrolet Camaro To Get Four-Cylinder Engine

    2016 Chevrolet Camaro will probably get some changes when compared to the current generation car. However, they won’t include design modifications, but rather some engine tweaks. There has been rumored that the new Chevy will be equipped as an option with four cylinder engine. These assumptions are based on the reports that the car will be lighter by several hundred pounds. Furthermore, the new 2016 Camaro will also grow on size, meaning that it won’t use anymore the short-wheelbase version of Alpha from the Cadillac ATS. It will be rather built on the long-wheelbase CTS.

    In other words this will make the new Camaro 2.3 inches longer than the current generation. The overall length of the car is expected to be around 114.6 inches, and this means that it will be 7.5 inches longer than the 2015 Ford Mustang, but still shorter than the current Dodge Challenger.

    The smaller, entry-level engine fitted to the coupe, is expected to be like the one used in the Cadillac ATS and CTS – the 2.0-liter turbocharged powertrain. This unit produces 272 horsepower (200 kW) and 400 Nm (295 pound-feet) of torque. Actually, most probably the car will be equipped with modified 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine, which we have seen in the new Mustang. This unit is capable of more than 305 hp (2205 kW) and 407 Nm (300 lb-ft) of torque.

    Of course, there has been nothing said about discontinuation of the current 3.6-liter V-6 and 6.2-liter V-8 units. 2016 Chevrolet Camaro will make an official world debut in the beginning of 2015. It is expected to go on sale later that year.

    2016-chevrolet-camaro-THUMBAlthough there are no official images of the sixth generation Camaro yet (credit to those featured in the article goes to the designers), the new 2016 Chevrolet Camaro is promised to look different than before. What was announced was that there aren’t going to be many differences in terms of style, so we are to see the iconic Camaro design for sure.

    However, Chevrolet is promising an evolutionary design and entirely new engineering under the skin of the car. We are almost sure that the new Camaro will be probably lighter and smaller in size as well as more agile, since rumors are pointing at all-new vehicle architecture.

    These changes are a result of the philosophy of the bran to follow the trend which demands mainstream performance cars that deliver great fuel economy and satisfying driving experience. What is more, the rear-wheel drive system which is to be featured was already introduced to Cadillac’s ATS and CTS models, and it will serve in terms of reducing weight.

    Unofficial forums over the internet also discuss the possible powertrains that will drive the sixth-gen model: 2.0 liter turbocharged I4 LTG, 3.6 liter naturally aspirated V6 LFX and twin turbo V6 LF3, V8 Small Block, and 6.2 and 7.0 liter naturally aspirated V8 Small Block LT1.

    2016 Chevrolet Camaro will be officially premiered at next year’s Detroit Motor Show. Below, you can watch a video showing some of the possible future designs of the car. Stay tuned!
