Chevy fully redesigned the 2016 Camaro, launching the muscle car’s sixth generation. While it may not look hugely different, the new Camaro rides on a whole new platform, improving on its already impressive handling. The Camaro’s V6 gets a power bump to 335 horsepower and becomes the mid-range option, above a new 275-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder base engine with improved fuel efficiency and plenty of torque. The Camaro SS gets a new, more powerful 455-horsepower V8.
The Camaro also gets a new interior design and updated tech, with standard wifi, and standard Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto®. A rearview camera is also standard, and blind-spot monitoring is available on higher trim levels along with luxuries like heated and ventilated seats and auto-dimming mirrors. But the redesigned Camaro still has several of the old design’s fundamental weaknesses: Poor visibility, the cramped backseat, and the tiny trunk all carry over into the new Camaro.

Performance: The Camaro’s confident handling and sharp steering punch above its price. Combined with a range of strong engines, from the traditional V6 and V8 to the punchy new turbocharged four cylinder, the Camaro is a true sports car. It’s a fun and engaging car to drive in every trim level.
Ride Quality: One of the Camaro’s most impressive tricks is delivering sports-car handling without a harsh ride. The standard suspension is surprisingly forgiving over bumps, and the new optional adaptive suspension provides a smooth ride on most road surfaces.
Standard features: The 2016 Camaro’s base 1LT trim gets a lot of the car’s new tech standard. A power-adjustable driver’s seat, a 7-inch touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a Wi-Fi hotspot and a rearview camera are all standard equipment.
Usability: The 2016 Camaro’s redesign didn’t revolutionize its looks, or its compromises. The new Camaro is still difficult to see out of, and still sports a meager backseat and undersized trunk. Altogether, the Camaro remains less flexible and less practical than other muscle cars.
