Low-resolution leaked images have prematurely revealed the new 2016 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible.
Erroneously published by Chevrolet on its own website, the leaked images confirm the Convertible is all but identical to the coupe from the rocker panels to the belt line. Above that, it gets a cloth soft top that retracts at the push of a button, even when the car is in motion. With the top closed, the Convertible’s roof line is nearly identical to the coupe’s.
Engine options will be carried over from the all-new sixth-generation Camaro coupe that was introduced last month. Entry-level models will get a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine rated at 275 horsepower and 295 lb-ft. of torque, mid-range models will benefit from a 335-horsepower 3.6-liter V6 and range-topping models will feature a direct-injected 6.2-liter V8 rated at 455 horsepower and 455 lb-ft. of torque.
All models will be available with a driving mode selector that will let the driver select from “Snow/Ice,” “Tour” and “Sport.” SS models will up the ante with a “Track” mode, and they will be offered with General Motors’ Magnetic Ride Control active suspension system.
Stay tuned, the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible will be officially unveiled online tomorrow. Following its debut, it is expected to go on sale across the nation by the end of the year.
