PERFORMANCE

Certifying the Camaro’s status as a true pony muscle car, are the two available power plant options. LT trim comes with a 3.6-liter V6 with Spark Ignition Direct Injection (SIDI) mated to a 6-speed automatic with TAP shift and a 3.27:1 axle ratio, producing 304 horsepower and 273 lb-ft. of torque. Base engine or not, this power train is enough for 0 to 60mph (0 to 96kph) times of 6.1-seconds and a quarter-mile (400 meter) run of 14.2-seconds. For even more road-ruling performance the Camaro SS is armed with a 6.2-liter V8 with Sequential Fuel Injection (SFI) hooked up to a more aggressive 3.45:1 axle ratio. This bestows 0 to 60mph times of 4.6-seconds and the quarter-mile in 13.4.
