OKEMOS, Mich. –– Since Chevrolet first made public its intentions to move production of its most popular muscle car from Canada to
Lansing, it would be an understatement to say we were ecstatic. Now we’re
seeing our community come to life after the new
2016 Chevrolet Camaro debuted in Lansing on Monday, Oct. 26, 2015.
The first three Camaros rolled off General Motors’ Lansing
assembly line in the true fashion of America, sporting paint coats of red,
white, and blue. The three pony cars are among 100 Camaros produced for
consumers, as opposed to the pilot vehicles the plant has been manufacturing
for testing purposes over the course of months leading up to the official
launch.
The new 2016 Chevrolet
Camaro’s debut in Lansing is in tow of the muscle car’s first time being
produced in America since 1992, and the people of Michigan’s capital area could
easily be the most excited to see its return. Over the summer, GM hired 450 new employees to cover the second shift at its Lansing plant in order to keep production alive
and well as consumer demand for the sixth-generation Camaro continues.
The sixth-generation Camaro speeds to 60 mph in 5.4 seconds and travels a quarter of a mile in about 12 seconds. That’s not surprising considering the Camaro 1LT is built with a 2.0L 4-cylinder or 3.6L V6 engine, while the 1SS is built with a 6.2L V8 engine. When it comes to great design elements, drivers have the option of both models in either coupe or convertible styles.
