About the 2019 Chevy Camaro
The Chevy Camaro entered its sixth generation in 2016. While the car improved upon the fifth-generation models (2010-15), the main bit of negative feedback on the Gen6 Camaro was that it looked too much like its predecessor.
We expect that the 2019 Camaro’s mid-cycle refresh will change that. If the new Corvette ZR-1 is any indication, Chevy will update the six-gen Camaro with a more aggressively styled grille and other aerodynamic elements. Leaked spy shots show a Camaro with relatively similar flanks to earlier models, but with its front and rear ends under significant concealment shrouds.
Hopefully we won’t have long to find out.

What’s new in the 2019 Chevy Camaro
In addition to the exterior styling updates alluded to above, we think there will be a few more significant changes in the 2019 Chevy Camaro.
Under the hood, we expect the Camaro to retain a turbocharged 2.0L LTG 4-cylinder, naturally aspirated 3.6L LGX V6, and naturally aspirated LT1 V8. The ZL1 Camaro will presumably pack Chevy’s supercharged 6.2L LT4 V8. It is rumored that horsepower will be up slightly across the board.
Camaro fans will also note that GM’s got a new 10R80 10-speed automatic transmission that’s been co-developed by Ford. You can find it in new Ford F-150s as well as the current ZL-1 Camaro. Our guess is that it will find itself into (at least) all the 2019 Camaros equipped with a V8.
No word yet whether Chevy plans to unveil a Z/28 to usurp the ZL1’s position as the top-dog Camaro—but our fingers are crossed for the Z28 badge to return.
