The Chevrolet Camaro is an American sports car that was first introduced to the public in 1966 at the Detroit Auto Show. Its serial production began in 1966 and continues with interruptions to the present day. The car was powered or driven - depending on the version - by a wide range of engines with a displacement of 2.5 to 7.4 liters. Production took place in various cities, mainly in the United States, including Norwood and Van Nuys.
The Camaro model was developed and put into production by General Motors Corporation, the owner of the Chevrolet brand, mainly to engage in a market battle with the very successful Ford Mustang, which entered the market in 1964. The Camaro model in GM's offer was supplemented by a Pontiac Firebird, with a floor plate (the so-called F-body platform). In the American market, it was classified as a so-called pony car and muscle car. During production, they were mainly offered in three body styles, as 2-door coupé, convertible or convertible. The model was produced in six generations, the last of which entered the market in 2016.
