2019 Chevy Camaro Lineup Gets Refreshed
The 2019 Chevy Camaro lineup is getting a slight overhaul with new designs and updated tech and performance features. The automaker says the changes reflect current market trends.
“Lauded since its introduction for its balance of driving fun, refinement and value, the restyled 2019 Camaro reaches even higher with more of the design, technology, and choices that customers want,? explained Steve Majoros, Chevrolet Marketing Director for Cars and Crossovers.
Performance Upgrades
The new Camaro Turbo 1LE joins the V6 1LE, SS 1LE, and ZL1 1LE to complete Camaro?s lineup of 1LE track cars for 2019. The 2.0-liter turbocharged engine found in the Turbo 1LE is paired to a six-speed manual transmission and creates 275 horsepower and 295 lb-ft. of torque. A special Drive Mode Selector includes Sport, Track, and Competition modes with performance readouts and launch control. The chassis, according to Chevrolet, was derived from the V6 1LE to offer solid track performance. Highlights include the FE3 suspension with its larger diameter front and rear stabilizer bars, specifically tuned dampers, stiffer rear cradle bushings, and cross-axis ball joints in the rear tow links to enhance lateral stiffness. Chevrolet also notes the car’s near 50/50 weight balance.
The Turbo 1LE Camaro also includes Brembo bakes with low-metallic performance pads and a flat-bottom steering wheel. Recaro seats are available.
For 2019, the Camaro SS will be offered with launch control and line lock...
