Chevrolet has made some minor updates for the 2020 Camaro, starting with the Camaro SS. Unless someone points out, you probably wouldn’t notice the difference between the 2020 and 2019 Camaro.
The SS now features a repositioned bowtie emblem in the upper grille, and the blacked-out crossbar is now body colored. Apparently, these changes were inspired by the Camaro concept that was showcased at the 2018 SEMA Show.
“Customers spoke, and we listened,” said Steve Majoros, director of Chevrolet passenger car and crossover marketing. “The overwhelmingly positive reaction to the Shock’s (Shock Yellow color) stylized design helped prompt its transition from concept to production.”
There’s a new trim called LT1 which combines the design and features of the Camaro LT (1LT trim) and SS. It gets the SS’ 6.2L LT1 V8 that puts out 455 hp and 455 lb.-ft. (617 Nm) of torque. The LT1 is offered in coupe and convertible models, with a standard 6-speed manual or an optional 10-speed automatic transmission. It carries a starting MSRP of $34,995 (including destination).
The trim gets SS’s vented hood, LT1 fender badges and black bowtie emblems, and 20-inch SS style wheels shod with all-season tires. Options include 8-inch color touchscreen and Bose premium audio system.
The Camaro LT models get an option of 10-speed automatic for the 335 hp 3.6L V6 engine. Additional 2020 updates include a new Rally Green exterior color, and the following –
- Rear spoiler available on LS and LT (previously RS package only).
- Dark-tinted tail lamps available on LS and LT.
- 20-inch forged aluminum wheels available on LT, LT1 and SS.
- Red or orange brake calipers available on LT, LT1 and SS models.
- Red seat belts available on all models (previously ZL1 only).
- Red kneepads available on all models.
- Recaro performance seats available on LT (previously 1LE only).
- Sueded microfibre-trimmed steering wheel and shift knob trim available on LT and SS (previously ZL1 and 1LE only).
- Alloy pedals available on all models (previously ZL1 only).
- Black bowtie badges and Camaro fender badge available on LT.
- Adrenaline Red and Ceramic White leather interiors now available on 2LT (previously 3LT and 2SS only).
- 3LT now comes standard with the 2.0L Turbo engine and the Convenience and Lighting package (previously optional).
The 2020 Camaro lineup goes on sale early this fall, with production at General Motors’ Lansing Grand River Assembly facility in Michigan.
