© General Motors

The 2016 Chevrolet Camaro stands out in every way, especially with the new technologies that enable drivers to tailor the car to the moment it is being driven. Whether lapping a road course or taking the curvy back roads of Mid-Missouri- the Camaro’s suspension adapts to fit every situation imaginable with its Driver Mode Selector.
 
The modes to choose from include:

• Sport
• Tour
• Track (Available in SS only)
• Snow/Ice

Each mode makes different adjustments- such as the level of traction, shift feel, ride stiffness, steering and throttle response, and even the lighting within the cockpit of the car. With eight different characteristics to choose from, every mode is a unique driving experience. 

The SS comes equipped with magnetic ride control- the world’s fasted driving suspension- which reads the road every millisecond to help the tires stay on the road, similar to the way metal sticks to a magnet.

New Camaro V6 Engine Named to Wards 10 Best Engines for 2016

They are built 9.5 hours away in Romulus, Mich., but they are the award-winning engines found in the new 2016 Camaros on their way to the Mid Missouri Powerhouse. WardsAuto World has named the all-new 3.6-liter V6 engine that powers the 2016 Camaro to its 10 Best Engines list for 2016.

While the actual car itself has won the Motor Trend 2016 Car of the Year Award, an accolade such as this backs up the impressiveness of the Camaro as a whole. Wards examined and tested 31 engines made from 11 brands, and the publication rated these engines based on fuel efficiency, refinement, technology, power and more. The engines were also matched up with ones of similar size.

“The 3.6 delivers the kind of power and lusty exhaust note you associate with a V-8 for the price of a V-6,” Drew Winter, content director for Wards, said. “Plus, it’s loaded with advanced technology, including fuel-saving cylinder deactivation.”

V8 engine in a muscle car have been the norm for decades, but this recognized engine will make central Missouri muscle car fans think twice about what engine is under the hood of their Camaros. The new 3.6-L V6 engine is available on the Camaro LT trims. This engine on the Gen Six Camaro gets up to 335 horsepower and 284 lb.-ft. of torque for, according to Chevrolet, “the highest specific output of any naturally aspirated V6 in the segment.”

Tested engine technologies helped this V6 stand out among 21 other engines in U.S. vehicles. Tried-and-true facets such as active continuously variable valve timing (CVVT) and direct injection contribute to the V6 Camaro’s power and efficiency. New for the 2016 Camaro’s V6 is the Active Fuel Management aka cylinder deactivation. This technology disables two cylinders during light throttle to up the fuel efficiency.

The EPA estimates the V6 engine mated with an eight-speed automatic transmission to have up to 28 mpg on the highway, helping your Missouri Camaro go further on the highway. City mpg is rated at 23, so those drives in town will still be efficient.

Not having a V8 in a muscle car might seem like a different world, but don’t knock it till you try it. The new 2016 Camaros are on their way to the new Mid Missouri Powerhouse in Linn, MO.
