Chevrolet Camaro sedan.

As we all know, the Chevrolet Camaro ended production about a year ago. The official word last year from GM was: ” Camaro is a passion product. It has developed a fan base across the world and has brought people into Chevrolet dealerships for generations. The sixth generation specifically represented athleticism and composure, exuding confidence on the road and dominance on the track.”

But also: “While we are not announcing an immediate successor today, rest assured, this is not the end of Camaro’s story.” Which led to some pretty wild speculations and guesses. Like a 4-door sedan. Or even an SUV. Of course, an SUV…

Something that has been mentioned by Mark Reuss, is the possibility of an EV. Which does make sense since GM is fully on board with their EV transition. He had also mentioned something at the same price point as the Chevrolet Equinox EV. Which currently starts at the amazingly low price of $33,600.

It would also be a car that focuses on “fun rather than pure horsepower”. Which means it wouldn’t really compete against the new Dodge Charger EV with up to an insane 670HP available. The Charger is also a very large coupe. A new Camaro based on the same platform as the Equinox EV could be quite nimble and, yes, fun.

While a next-generation EV Camaro would probably end up being a crossover competing against the popular Ford Mustang Mach-E, a sportier-looking sedan would be quite interesting.

A nice-looking looking affordable, fun-to-drive 4-door Camaro based on GM’s Ultium platform would be great.

While we know Ford had been thinking of a 4-door Mustang since the 1960’s there seems to be no trace of a 4-door Camaro prototype anywhere. The only thing GM was considering for a while was this cool 2-door wagon of the Camaro.

  1. I would buy it. But please don’t bastardize the Camaro nameplate. Give it it’s own, distinct name. Or revive an old name. “Nova”, maybe. If you must connect it to the Camaro name, call it a “Chevrolet Iroc”. That would bring in the younger demographic as well as the middle aged and older folks who remember it from decades past.

  2. If this is Equinox in some, call it a Cobalt or leave it alone altogether. Stop embarrassing historic/classic nameplates.

  3. Stay off of the drugs!!! Nothing “great” about turning the Camaro into the Malibu!!!! Please get a clue GM!! The reason the Camaro didn’t keep up in sales with its competition, is because you failed to respond to its competition!! Dodge put hemi’s in everything, Ford upped the horsepower on the Mustang, and GM keep putting out lower horsepower Camaros, with boring color skeem for interiors!!! I guess their next “bid idea” will be to make it he Camaro a front wheel drive 4 cylinder, and wonder why it’s not selling!!!!

  4. NO!!! That’s not a Camaro!!! What happened to car industry? This is not what the people want. ESPECIALLY Camaro people.

  5. People may not like it at first (humans and change, same reaction from the beginning to the end of time)….but since vehicle performance has raised significantly overtime, having a Camaro sedan makes sense. It wouldn’t make any sense to have this and a Malibu EV (Maybe Malibu can be the base trim level as an homage).

  6. Make a new Camaro with a V-8 and a Turbo 4 styled like a 3rd generation that looks good and they will sell and update them and act like you really care about selling cars like Ford with the Mustang.

  7. I have owned gen 4 z28 gen 5 ss and have a gen 6 ss 1le if the next gen does not have a V8 I will not buy it.i have a name for your ev Electra. If the Camaro I know and love is dead then let it be dead. Long live the V8.chevy is out of touch with Americans . We don’t want your evs and 4cyl 1500 trucks .

  8. I don’t know who the people are that are trying to reimagine what these cars should be there obviously out of an insane asylum because they don’t carry on the name plate of what it’ll be and whoever’s running Chevrolet I guess that’s better well they need to be replaced because somebody’s ruining general motors an SUVs is not the way to go you got to have more variety in your cars and you’re killing an iconic muscle car it’s supposed to be a muscle car for a reason let it have the muscle quit holding it back

  9. Let me add my two cents I’ve always love the camaro but when you guys put ice trucks that did it though im officially banned from any muscle car by the boss who wishes to see me alive yes my wifebut i would love to see a camaro whipp a dodge charger or avenger but it looks like i might die with the desire get it together but quicksoonfast and compete you got the intelligence to make beauty and if you want to show off make the 4 door camaro then bring out the chuck Norris addition or go back to ice cream trucks.

  10. Hey guys believe it or not they will sale, Hell I’ll take one if it was given to me Free of charge, I’ll be more than Happy to sport it around town
